Attorney Mark Geragos, who represented Scott Peterson in his high-profile murder conviction, believes an upcoming A&E documentary examining Peterson's case could generate sufficient public interest and scrutiny to prompt a retrial. Drawing on his experience with high-profile cases, Geragos points to the recent success of the Menendez brothers' case as evidence that media coverage can substantially shift public understanding and potentially influence legal outcomes, even in cases long considered settled.

Geragos argues that documentaries can help audiences reconsider established conclusions by presenting new perspectives on complex issues. He specifically contends that while Peterson's infidelity during the time of his wife's murder was damaging at trial, this alone should not have led to a murder conviction. Though no longer formally representing Peterson, Geragos indicated he remains available to support the defense effort, and he highlights the involvement of the Los Angeles Innocence Project as a sign of the case's merit.
