Anybody else making their way through this show? For the uninitiated, it's a true-crime documentary about a man arrested for murder shortly after being released from jail for a wrongful accusation 18 years prior.

I'm not finished yet, and while I don't want to spoil anything this doesn't really seem like a show that really can be spoiled; it's all taking place 8 years ago and the conclusion of the case can be read online.

Spoiler
My current theory: at least two of the cops saw an opportunity to frame Steven Avery for Teresa Halbach's murder when one of them stumbled upon her vehicle. They planted evidence in her car and in Avery's house (at various points in the investigation), burned her corpse on his property and then moved it to his fire pit, then hid the car in a very easy to find location, and coerced a false confession from Brendan Avery. I'm not willing to go so far as so to say the police murdered Halbach themselves, though it seems pretty certain that it was in direct response to his lawsuit against the sheriff's office for 36 million.

I don't think Kratz (the prosecutor) is in on it, but all law enforcement personnel involved seem determined to make Avery responsible for the crime. It still blows my mind that Kratz was allowed to make a press conference detailing how Avery (supposedly) killed Halbach, based on the obviously false and coerced confession by Brendan, presented as fact. Everyone in the state was hearing this narrative for over a year before the trial; there's no way they could ever get an unbiased jury for the case.

jesus christ


“If we wanted to eliminate Steve, it would’ve been a whole lot easier to eliminate Steve than to frame Steve...or if we wanted him killed, it would be much easier just to kill him”

>Admits that despite DNA evidence and 22 eyewitness, he still believe Steve raped that girl

Fuck this guy. I can't believe he's not in jail.

Speaking of insane things said during this case: remember when Brendan's own lawyer said his family was completely evil and they needed to stop their gene pool?

I found it weird how Teresa Halbach's brother had it in for Steven before there were even talks for a trial. Like the way he conducts himself towards the press with such an autistic, void of emotion manner is really creepy. Not saying he did it, and I understand people cope with grief in various different ways, but his character throughout the entire ordeal just came off as really odd.

I just finished it.

Whether or not Steven Avery committed those crimes or not, there was gross misconduct by the prosecution, the judge, and witnesses.

Example:

The DNA expert testified that it was Teresa's blood on the bullet. Oh, and btw the expert's DNA is in there, too. Lab SOP dictates that if a sample is contaminated it must be ruled inconclusive. They accepted it as evidence of Teresa's DNA.

My GF works in a lab. She lost her shit about that.

Just...WTF.

Oh, and yeah, Brendan Dassy is totes retarded. How they pinned that shit on him is beyond me. His story of what happened at Steven's changed every time, but every time he told what he really did [went home and played playstation or whatever] it was consistent, leading me to believe that is the truth. Motherfucker is too dumb to keep telling the same made-up story the same way each time.

Brendan: "Mom, what does 'inconsistent' mean?"
His mom" I don't know"

HOLY SHIT HOW DUMB ARE THESE PEOPLE

Also also, is there only one fucking judge? The same Judge Fox presided over both Avery's and Dassey's cases. Was he also the judge for Avery's first sentencing?

Shit is all fucked up in Wisconsin.

Hey man, sheriffs can be cool dudes. I just slipped one a $20, answered no to a bunch of questions, and he printed me right out a carry permit.

He was disbarred for sexting a domestic abuse victim he was representing and for drug abuse, so there's some recompense.

With the insane amount of "coincidences" between Avery and the Manitowoc police, it boggles my mind how he was found guilty. Well maybe not, given the amount of unfair media attention that already branded him a murderer before the trial began. Also Kratz is a sniveling, weasel piece of shit. Fuck that guy.

I just finished watching the last episode today. Our justice system is beyond broken. What a fucking mess. I'm not going to spoil what happened to those currently watching... but.... just keep watching. That's all I'm going to say.

God man what kind of State does my friend Chris live in? He needs to get the fuck out of there.

And Ken Kratz sounds like a talking vagina.

He's disgusting. The shit he sent to that girl even, what a fucking pervert.
