The defence lawyer who worked on the murder trial that inspired the drama The Staircase has now given credit to the previously dismissed theory that Kathleen Peterson was attacked by an owl. lawyer David Rudolf represented Michael Peterson during his 2003 trial when he was convicted of the murder of his second wife Kathleen, after she was found unconscious and bleeding out at the bottom of their home's staircase on December 9, 2001. However, following more than a decade of legal battles, Peterson was retrialed and sentenced to time served in 2017, and has been a free man ever since, although suspicions remain over his involvement in Kathleen's death.
