Primetime Live: The Stair Case

Culled from the documantary, The Staircase is an extraordinary look behind the scenes of a high-profile murder trial in a small southern town. From the desperate 911 call to the stunning verdict, a team of Academy Award-winning filmmakers from Paris document every aspect of the sensational case against novelist Michael Peterson, who was charged with bludgeoning his wife, Kathleen, to death at the bottom of a staircase in their million-dollar home in Durham, North Carolina on December 9, 2001.
