Summary

Scott Peterson beat up by fellow inmate while playing pickleball. The inmate was set off by Peterson charging at him trying to catch the ball. Corrections officers broke up the fight. Peterson was injured, but did not require hospitalization. 

The last time convicted double murderer Scott Peterson was in the headlines, was when his death sentence was reversed by California's Supreme Court.

The high court found that the 2002 trial in the deaths of Peterson's wife Laci and their unborn son was fair; those murder convictions will stand.

However, the court found that potential jurors were wrongly dismissed by the judge after they expressed general objections to the death penalty on a questionnaire.
