The judge in the Drew Peterson case is once again considering declaring a mistrial, after a prosecutor started a line of questioning that had been strictly prohibited by the judge.
Judge Edward Burmila angrily chastised the prosecutor after she asked a witness whether Peterson’s third wife, Kathleen Savio, had sought an order of protection against him.
Peterson is charged with killing Savio.
The judge in the case could declare a mistrial with prejudice, meaning Peterson would go free and could not be retried for Savio’s death.
