Story
Verteran investigative journalist Stevie Cameron first began following the story of missing women in 1998, when the odd newspaper piece appeared chronicling the disappearances of drug-addicted sex trade workers from Vancouver's notorious Downtown Eastside. It was not until February 2002 that pig farmer Robert William Pickton would be arrested, and 2008 before he was found guilty, on six counts of second-degree murder. These counts were appealed and in 2010, the Supreme Court of Canada rendered its conclusion.

On December 9, 2001, the bloody body of Kathleen Peterson was found dead at the bottom of the stairs in the North Carolina home she shared with her husband and novelist Michael Peterson. Blood-splattered evidence and a missing fireplace poker suggested it was a cold-blooded murder. Within two years, Michael Peterson was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison. But because a key witness, a blood-splatter expert, in fact, whose testimony was discredited, Michael Peterson's conviction was overturned.

Fascinating look at the man behind the headlines
Having watched the movie and documentary I wanted more, and found this very interesting. Perhaps a little heavy on prison tales, it's enjoyable and gives you a sense of who Michael Peterson is.
