Description
On December 9, 2001, successful Nortel executive Kathleen Peterson was found dead at the bottom of a staircase in her Durham, North Carolina home. Her husband, novelist Michael Peterson, insisted she had fallen. Prosecutors claimed he had beaten her to death with a missing fireplace tool.
The case became one of the most debated in American true crime. Investigators uncovered Michael’s secret bisexual life, financial strain, and the chillingly similar 1985 staircase death of family friend Elizabeth Ratliff. In 2003, Michael was convicted of murder — only for the conviction to unravel years later after revelations of forensic misconduct.
From the blood-soaked staircase to the bizarre owl theory, Michael’s Alford plea, and the Netflix documentary The Staircase, this story continues to fascinate, confuse, and divide. Was it murder, accident, or something stranger?
This documentary explores the life of Kathleen Peterson, the trial of Michael Peterson, and the mystery that still endures.
