By Real Crime Profile / Wondery

The RCP deep dive the case of Kathleen Peterson and discuss the Netflix original documentary "The Staircase."

 In 2004, filmmaker Jean-Xavier de Lestrade debuted "The Staircase" as an eight-part mini-series which examined the case of Michael Peterson, a novelist who was accused of murdering his wife Kathleen after she was found dead at the bottom of a staircase in their Durham, North Carolina home.


In 2012 a further two hours were shot  from Peterson's and the defence teams perspective detailing the aftermath of the trial and turning it into a 13 hour docu-series.


Was it an accident or was she murdered? Our expert team weigh in, starting as they always do, with the victimology.
