Peterson Denied Access to Unsolved Killing Files

Scott Peterson’s lawyers will not be able to view investigation files in an unsolved San Francisco murder case with similarities to the killing of his wife, Laci, a judge ruled Wednesday.

Peterson’s lawyers wanted to know more about the killing of Evelyn Hernandez, a pregnant woman whose body was found in San Francisco Bay, in their attempt to find what they call the real killers of Laci Peterson.

Stanislaus County Superior Court Judge Al Girolami ordered San Francisco authorities to give the autopsy report and photos to defense lawyer Mark Geragos, but nothing else.
