MURDERED: Laci Peterson

Listen to episode

It was the perfect date. Warm candle lights twinkled on the table, making the glasses look like enchanted jewels. Amber Frey looked across the table at her date.

At first, the blonde single mom had been nervous about being set up on a blind date, but she trusted her best friend. Then, a tall man in a fitted suit, who happened to look a little bit like Ben Affleck, showed up at her table and introduced himself.

Amber looked up at the man – in that moment she knew that her life was about to change forever.

Miles away, a woman lounged on her couch. The baby boy in her belly made moving around more difficult, but despite how challenging the pregnancy had been so far, Laci Peterson felt lucky. She had a healthy baby and a husband that worked hard for their little family.

She knew that in little more than a month, her baby boy would enter the world and their lives would change forever.

Both women sat at the precipice of a life altering event. Soon, they would be forever tied together by a tragedy that would rock the world, because one of the women would end up dead.

Her name was Laci Peterson.

**Discovery of Laci’s body in San Francisco Bay, Richmond, CA**
