HuffPost
After a renowned pathologist testified that the 2004 death of Drew Peterson's third wife Kathleen Savio was a homicide on Friday, Peterson's defense attorneys tore into the doctor--who then admitted that a Fox News producer helped him perform the autopsy.
Michael Baden, former chief medical examiner of New York City testified Friday that Kathleen Savio not only drowned in her bathtub, she was beaten, according to the Associated Press. But during cross-examination, Peterson attorney Joel Brodsky questioned Baden's motives for coming to that conclusion, "contending he was determined to reach the conclusion to please his bosses at Fox News," the Chicago Tribune reports.
