Case closed for Scott Peterson?

[kiyoung80]

So far, I'm not impressed with the evidence presented by the prosecution. Yes there's plenty of circumstantial evidence, but nothing really concrete (no pun intended) to convict him of the charges. It's a shame because I do feel that he's guilty as sin, but it just seems that they let the defense have it easy. What I think would have been great to have seen would be Court TV's anchorwoman, Nancy Grace, against Scott Peterson. From what I've read, she has a perfect record of nearly 100 felony convictions at trial - and no losses while she worked as a prosecutor in Atlanta.

What does everyone here think? Do you think we'll have yet another killer walking free?

Court TV gives the most extensive trial coverage during the day, but I'm at work until 6pm usually. From what I hear though, during the closing arguments (which start on Monday, 11/1) they are going to give Nancy Grace her own 2-hour show from 6pm-8pm to review that day's events. That kind of works perfectly for me, and hopefully will give us some insite on what's going on that courtroom.

The majority of homicide cases are convicted with circumstantial eveidence. There is rarely direct evidence presented for a homicide case.

A circumstantial case is harder to beat for a defense attorney. They have to pick apart so many different things and convince the jury that they are just coincidences. With direct evidence, if they can prove the direct evidence is tarnished, they only have one thing to deal with. A circumstantial case is like swatting flies.
