C-IM denies records in slaying probe
The district attorney's office seeks emergency room records from Crouse-Irving Memorial Hospital for two days after Petrina Peterson's June 17 slaying in Syracuse. CIM fights subpoena claiming physician patient privilege. Hearing before Justice Walter Gorman led to a reserved decision. Police say no solid link yet to 19-year-old William St Germain, though he has confessed to other charges. Peterson, found stabbed behind an abandoned Burnet Avenue building, was reportedly involved in prostitution. The subpoena aims at all stab wound cases from the two days after the death.
