On December 9th 2001, Kathleen Peterson died at the bottom of the staircase in her home in Durham, North Carolina. Despite claiming his wife had fallen down the stairs, Michael Peterson was charged with her murder and convicted to life imprisonment in 2003 after one of the longest trials in North Carolina's history.
We completed the 13 episode documentary and met back to discuss our thoughts on the case. After watching the first episode, we poll ourselves and give our initial assumption as to Michael’s innocence or guilt. At the conclusion of the documentary, we will poll again and see if our opinions were changed.
This is a very interesting case from start to finish. Have you seen The Staircase? Do you think they proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Michael was guilty? LET US KNOW!!!
