You are required to research the Scott Peterson case and prepare a summary report of the
events that led to his arrest and eventual conviction of the crimes. There was no direct
evidence that lead to his convictions for first and second-degree murder. This case is a
California State case, where for the first time, someone is on death row based solely on
circumstantial evidence. Scott Peterson is currently on the death row for the killing of his wife
and unborn child.
This assignment allows you to see a case all the way from the trial to the sentencing of an
accused.
Tasks:
Research the Argosy University Online Library to get the background facts of the case and
document the sources you find to establish your researched facts.
Provide enough background facts that explain what occurred in this case and how Peterson
was charged and ultimately convicted. Make sure you choose wisely and present only relevant
evidence leading to the conviction.
Present a minimum of five items of evidence that the jury relied upon in reaching this
decision.
Provide a summary of the events that led to Peterson's arrest and eventual convictions of the
crimes. Then, describe in detail the crimes and elements for which he was found guilty.
