Peterson could join more than 600 other men condemned to die.
But with a state average of 16 years between sentencing and execution, Peterson could likely face many years of mind-numbing monotony laced with the constant threat of assault by other inmates.
San Quentin's culture of violence is well-known and as in most prisons, child-killers are a favored target.
Peterson is likely to be segregated for his own safety, but he'll be forced to live the same routine as other inmates with regulated meal times, limited recreation and showers and strictly timed visits -- two hours a day Thursday through Sunday, although attorney visits are allowed any weekday.
