Lawyers trying to overturn Scott Peterson’s conviction in the sordid slaying of his pregnant wife 20 years ago have completed their questioning without shaking a former juror.
Scott Peterson, seated at right, listens as attorney Pat Harris, standing, speaks during a hearing at the San Mateo County Superior Court in Redwood City, Calif., Monday, Feb. 28, 2022. – Lawyers trying to overturn Scott Peterson’s conviction in the sordid slaying of his pregnant wife 20 years ago completed their questioning Monday without shaking a former juror from her crucial testimony that she acted properly before and during his 2004 trial.
Peterson’s attorneys plan to spend the next two days of the weeklong hearing putting on witnesses they say will contradict Nice’s answers."When I filled out that questionnaire, honestly and truly, nothing of this ever crossed my mind, ever,” Nice said Monday of her failure to disclose that she had sought a restraining order in 2000 against her then boyfriend’s former girlfriend, saying then that she feared for her own unborn child.
Another juror loaned her $1,000 only after the trial ended — “Way after the trial, maybe even a year.”She denied selling a series of post-trial letters between herself and Peterson to People magazine. She said to her recollection, the first time she used “little man” to refer to Conner was in her first television interview after the trial.But prosecutors on Monday called that into question with a transcript of the jury selection process showing that the trial judge had dismissed Nice from the jury pool because of financial hardship and she was ready to walk out the door without complaint — until Peterson’s celebrity attorney, Mark Geragos, called her back.
Geragos has said in court papers that had he known of Nice’s personal history he would have immediately bounced her from the jury. She said she asked Peterson about his infidelity in one letter because she was trying to understand “about men in general, why they cheat.”
