Scott Peterson says he’s an ‘a-hole’ for cheating on slain wife but maintains innocence

In first on-camera remarks in decades, Peterson, convicted in 2004 of murder, denies killing his pregnant wife

In his first on-camera remarks in two decades, the convicted double murderer Scott Peterson called himself a total a-hole" for cheating on his pregnant wife, Laci, before her slaying - but he insisted he did not murder her or their unborn son, Conner.

It's horrible. I was a total a-hole to be having sex outside our marriage," the 51-year-old Peterson said in an interview shown as part of a three-part documentary series premiering on the NBC streaming platform Peacock on 20 August, according to People.com. But, during the interview conducted over a video call from California's Mule Creek state prison, he added: I didn't kill my family."
