Prosecutors and lawyers for convicted murderer Scott Peterson will give closing arguments in late June before a California judge decides whether Peterson deserves a new trial in the slaying of his pregnant wife 20 years ago.
Massullo had delayed the final two days of the hearing from early this month after Peterson’s attorneys said they had surprise testimony from documentary producer Shareen Anderson.
Anderson abruptly refused to testify, however, saying through her attorney that she hadn’t been properly legally served with an order to appear, and that her testimony couldn’t be required because she was acting as a journalist while producing the documentary. They contend that she lied about her lack of bias to get on the jury, and lied again in a sworn declaration in 2020.
