Evidence suggests Peterson baby removed from womb

Appearing on MSNBC, Dr. Wecht said the findings in the coroner's report on Connor Peterson, the unborn son of Laci and Scott Peterson, were extremely significant.

Dr. Wecht told Dan Abrams the cuts found on Connor Peterson's body were consistent with the child having been removed from his mother's womb, Laci Peterson, via an incision, rather than expelled from the body due to decomposition of the uterus.

Later, on MSNBC's 'Countdown with Keith Olbermann,' Dr. Wecht also said he believes, at this point, having not seen the autopsy report or pictures, the plastic tape found around the baby's neck will prove to be a pick-up or artifact.
