Superior Court Judge Al Delucchi set a March 16 sentencing date for Scott Peterson, who faces the death penalty after his conviction late last year for murdering his wife and unborn son.
"The 16th is in cement," Judge Delucchi said. "I'm not going to change that date. I'm not going to make any further continuances."
The judge, who can reduce that penalty to life in prison, originally set Friday as the sentencing date, but pushed it back at the request of defense attorney Mark Geragos. (see also December 13, 2004).
