Check back in about ten years (after state and federal appeals are exhausted) to see if Scott Peterson gets the cocktail of death in San Quentin. He gets a choice of HCN (hydrogen cyanide) in the gas chamber or the IV cocktail of death; the latter if he makes no choice.
Right now, this is the jury's recommendation. The judge may overrule the recommendation and give him life with no parole at formal sentencing in February. Unless he finds some mitigating circumstance it is highly unlikely that the judge will deviate from the jury's unanimous recommendation, lest he incur the wrath of the Rocha family and the court of public opinion.
