An Outrageous Theory For Murder!
On December 9, 2001, Kathleen Peterson was found dead at the bottom of a staircase
in her Durham, NC home. Her scalp was laced with deep incisions, and her blood was strewn from outside to inside the house.
The sinister truth of that night turned her murder into North Carolina's most enigmatic criminal case, capturing media attention across the globe.
Police zeroed in
on Kathleen's husband, Michael Peterson, and charged him with murder.
But Was It The Truth?
A neighbor
, Larry Pollard, came up with an alternative "killer;" he claimed an owl had attacked Kathleen outside her house. He said it sliced her scalp with its fierce talons and caused her to run inside, collapsing at the stairwell, and bleeding to death.
When the media heard
about his theory, Larry was mocked. And Michael was convicted.
Now, twenty years later, author Tiddy Smith explores Pollard's theory and questions whether law enforcement ignored, or even hid, evidence to convict Michael Peterson. And was an owl, in fact, the real killer?
