The Peterson Circus
March 12, 2004
Many television viewers associate the town of Modesto, California, with one thing and one thing only: the Laci Peterson case. And before the murder case was a national media story, it saturated the local airwaves. By the time Laci's husband Scott was charged with the murder, the judge agreed that the local jury pool was tainted, and moved the trial to Redwood City. But the media circus followed, and the defense now plans to request another change of venue. Reporter Kathy McAnally has the story.
