Brodsky To Oppose Seal Discovery Motion

A defense attorney in Drew Peterson's murder case says he'll oppose a motion by prosecutors to keep evidence under wraps as the legal process against the former Bolingbrook police sergeant proceeds.

A newly assigned judge in the case, Stephen White, will hear a state request to seal discovery at a hearing on Wednesday. Peterson's attorney, Joel Brodsky, says he'll argue that it'll be difficult to keep evidence from the public in the high-profile case. And he says he wants the process to be as transparent as possible.

Peterson's charged with first-degree murder in the 2004 death of his third wife, Kathleen Savio. Peterson's pleaded not guilty and is being held in jail on $20 million bond.

His fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, has been missing since 2007, and he's been named a suspect in her disappearance.
