DATELINE friday night
It was a case long on notoriety, short on evidence. In fact, to put Drew Peterson on trial for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, prosecutors had to get a new law passed to introduce hearsay. They said it would allow Savio, and Peterson's fourth wife, Stacy -- missing and presumed dead -- to "speak from their graves." From the stunning verdict, it seems jurors were listening.
Hoda Kotb goes inside the case, with exclusive details from a key witness tonight at 10pm/9c on Dateline NBC.
