Laci Peterson BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

There has been a notable resurgence of public attention and courtroom drama surrounding the Laci Peterson case over the past few days, even though Laci herself tragically remains at the center of the story as its enduring victim and not an active participant. The biggest development making headlines comes from the legal defense for Scott Peterson, Laci’s husband, who was convicted of her murder in 2004. According to People magazine and the Los Angeles Innocence Project—or LAIP—Peterson’s lawyers are claiming to have new evidence they say could exonerate him. This includes testimony regarding a burglary across the street from the Peterson home the morning Laci disappeared, as well as findings about a van that was reportedly set on fire nearby, with claims that Laci may have been killed there. The LAIP also alleges that the police suppressed evidence concerning a mattress with bloodstains found in the burned van. They further dispute the prosecution’s argument about how Laci’s and her unborn son Conner’s bodies ended up in San Francisco Bay, suggesting they were dumped at a different location than previously asserted. All these claims are detailed in a recent petition, but most remain under review and have yet to be verified by the courts.

Laci’s family continues to assert their unwavering belief in Scott’s guilt, sticking to the conclusions reached by the original police investigation and jury. The latest procedural victory for Scott Peterson’s team came in May, when a judge ruled that a piece of duct tape found on Laci’s pants could be re-tested for DNA, which has fueled new rounds of media coverage.

On the media front, 48 Hours recently aired an encore of its deep-dive special “Scott Peterson: Case in Question,” reigniting public debate and providing a comprehensive recap of the tragedy and the subsequent legal fight. The A&E network is also preparing to launch a major new documentary series, for which Scott Peterson has broken years of silence to grant an interview, timed with the ongoing appeals process and the 15th anniversary of the original conviction. Producers of the series hint there are details that the public may have never heard before, including witness accounts that may challenge the original timeline of Laci’s disappearance.

While Laci Peterson herself has not of course appeared or posted anything—her memory is nevertheless kept alive as the focus of fresh legal strategies, media retrospectives, and renewed public fascination. All recent developments suggest the case will continue to draw attention, both for the enduring pain of her loss and the potential for a dramatic legal reversal that could reshape how the story is told for years to come.
