An American Murder Mystery – The Staircase Story
Michael Peterson appeared to have it all – a doting wife, a loving family and a successful literary career – but, that all changed on December 9, 2001, when Michael’s wife, Kathleen, was found dead in a pool of blood at the bottom of a staircase in their home in Durham, North Carolina.
Michael claims it was a tragic accident. Investigators, however, feared something far more sinister was at play and directed their attention to him. Did Michael Peterson murder his wife? Investigation Discovery (ID) delves into one of the most fascinating cases in criminal history in the new miniseries.
The three-episode series features new and exclusive interviews with key players in the case, most notably Candace Zamperini, Kathleen’s sister and Brent Wolgamott, a male escort whom Michael was emailing with at the time of the crime, as well as legal experts, jurors and reporters who covered the case from the very beginning.
