Pathologist testifies why he believes death of Drew Peterson’s third wife was homicide
CHICAGO (MCT) — As jurors furiously took notes, a state-hired pathologist explained Thursday why he believed the bathtub drowning of Drew Peterson’s third wife was a homicide.
Dr. Larry Blum said Kathleen Savio’s position in her Bolingbrook, Ill., tub, her injuries and the lack of drugs or alcohol in her system helped him conclude she was murdered. Yet he acknowledged that finding was contradicted by the respected Will County pathologist who performed the original autopsy in 2004.
