Laci Peterson's Husband, Mom Spar Over Life Insurance

MODESTO, Calif. -- A judge on Tuesday set an Oct. 21 court date to decide who will collect Laci Peterson's $250,000 life insurance policy. Sharon Rocha, the mother of the slain pregnant teacher, has petitioned the court for the money. But Scott Peterson's attorney, Mark Geragos, won't give up his client's claim to the money until he has exhausted appeals of his conviction in her murder. Rocha's attorney, Adam Stewart, said Tuesday after a brief court hearing that it could take "a quarter of a century to find out whether he's exonerated or put to death."
