WGN Radio Presents "The People v. Drew Peterson"

Hosts Greg Adamski & Karen Conti to host mock trial of the closing arguments in the prosecution of Drew Peterson

Chicago attorneys Greg Adamski and Karen Conti, hosts of WGN Radio's Legally Speaking, will host a mock trial of the closing arguments in the murder prosecution of Drew Peterson for the death of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, on Thursday, May 28 from 6-8pm at the IIT Chicago-Kent College of Law. The event will be open to the public and taped for broadcast on WGN Radio on Sunday, June 14 and Sunday, June 21.

"The People v. Drew Peterson" will feature Greg Adamski as moderator, Karen Conti as prosecutor, and lawyer Joseph R. Lopez as Drew Peterson's defense attorney. Retired Cook County Circuit Court Judge Richard Neville will preside and a professional jury consultant will be present to quickly screen and select jurors who will be taken from the audience. The jury will be given a short period of time to deliberate and a verdict will be rendered before the night is over. The event is intended as an educational exposition, based solely on the facts that have been publicly reported.

Tickets are free but extremely limited. Click the link below to register for free tickets. The event will be taped and broadcast on WGN Radio on Sunday, June 14 and Sunday, June 21, prior to the Chicago Cubs broadcasts - the exact start times will be announced closer to air dates.

Drew Peterson was indicted by a Will County grand jury last week on two counts of murder in connection with Savio's death. He is scheduled to be arraigned May 18. Peterson, a former Bolingbrook police sergeant, has maintained his innocence in the case.

Please note that tickets are not guaranteed; you will receive an e-mail notification on May 22 if you have been selected to attend.
