“You’re going to burn in hell for this.”
– Dennis Rocha, Father of Laci Peterson
A judge sent Scott Peterson to death row Wednesday for the slaying of his pregnant wife, Laci, after a turbulent court session today.
Judge Alfred A. Delucchi accepted the jury’s recommendation that Peterson be sentenced to death, calling the killing of Laci Peterson and her fetus “cruel, uncaring, heartless and callous.”
Peterson, 32, was invited to make a statement. After several minutes of discussion with his attorneys, he declined.
Wearing a dark suit and shackled at the waist, Peterson stared at Laci’s mother without emotion as she told him he deserved to be put to death “as soon as possible.”
“You decided to throw Laci and Conner away, dispose of them like they were just a piece of garbage,” Sharon Rocha told her former son-in-law. Rocha sobbed as she read from a statement, looking directly at Peterson. “We had to bury Laci without her arms to hold her baby and without her head,” Rocha said, her voice breaking.
Laci’s father, Dennis Rocha, told Peterson: “You’re going to burn in hell for this.”
And Laci’s brother, Brent Rocha, said he bought a gun during the investigation into Laci’s disappearance and contemplated killing Peterson. “I chose not to kill you myself for one reason, so you would have to sweat it out and not take the easy way out,” he told Peterson.
What’s your pleasure Scott? A syringe of poison or death by gas suffocation? They should actually let Laci’s brother go after him.
Buh-bye Satan.
