Drew Peterson’s former lead defense attorney may face discipline for some remarks he made on WGN-TV.

In the wake of Peterson’s murder conviction, attorney Joel Brodsky said it was Peterson himself who demanded that Harry Smith, the divorce lawyer for his estranged wife Kathleen Savio be ordered to testify at his trial.

Smith’s testimony ended up convincing jurors to convict Peterson.

Will County Judge Edward Burmila says he was shocked that Brodsky would publicly discuss his trial strategy, and he’ll ask the state’s lawyer disciplinary commission to punish Brodsky.

Brodsky insists he had every right to publicly defend what he did.

Convicted murderer Drew Peterson has moved to another prison.

Peterson is now at Menard correctional center in downstate Randolph County.

He just started serving a 38-year sentence for the murder of Kathleen Savio.

Peterson has already spent time at Statesville and Pontiac prisons.

The Department of Corrections gave no reason for his transfer.

Menard prison is known to be one of the toughest prisons in the state.

It’s currently on lock-down because of a recent assault on staff members.

“You know, I guess I feel vindicated,” Brodsky said with a shrug Thursday outside the courtroom where Drew Peterson was sentenced for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio. “The judge said there was a strategy.”

After years of investigating and prosecuting, the area’s most notorious former cop is headed to prison.

Drew Peterson was sentenced today to 38-years behind bars for killing his third wife, Kathleen Savio.

Peterson was emotional as he spoke at today’s sentencing, at one point screaming out “I did not kill Kathleen!”

Peterson went on to say, “Until this happened, I thought I was a great guy,” he said. “And in moments, the media turned me into a monster. As soon as I get a chance, I’m going to get a tattoo on my back, from shoulder to shoulder, that says, ‘No good deed goes unpunished. “
Peterson is also a suspect in the 2007 disappearance of Stacy Peterson, his fourth wife.

He has not been charged in that case.
