A terrifying documentary. The scariest thing is the realization that all this really happened and that Teresa Holbuck's killer has not been found after 10 years and is unlikely to be found.
@lleon596: 1) By killer, I hope you don't mean Brendan? ;) 2) Misrepresented? Most of the documentary is made up of videos from the courtroom, selected from about 700,000 videos, did the creators need to stuff EVERYTHING into the series at all? You must have watched it inattentively, because the goal was not to get to the truth - whether Avery was guilty or not, but to expose a corrupt police department (who knows, there are so many more in the country), to show that you cannot tolerate the planting of evidence by the police and pulling a confession from a mentally retarded person with tongs underage investigators should not allow a lawyer to work in concert with the prosecution against his client, that prosecutors can brazenly carry obvious lies on TV without any consequences, etc., etc.
@fassairbender: 1)No evidence was thrown away. 2) Whether Avory is guilty, I do not know, but the evidence spoils him, including his sweat (not blood) under the hood of the car , phone calls from a hidden number to the victim and a bunch of other things that Netflix did not include in the series (I wonder why?). 3) Before taking everything on faith, you would at least read the court records , which are open to everyone, by the way http://www.stevenaverycase.org/jurytrialtranscripts / , or just a couple of in-depth articles on the topic. For example: http://www.pajiba.com/netflix_movies_and_tv/is-steven-avery-guilty-evidence-making-a-murderer-didnt-present.php At the same time, watch the interview with Avory's ex-girlfriend, you will see the complete opposite of the series. with respect..
@lleon596: The second case is quite difficult to discuss objectively, because it was initially difficult, given the history of the accused. The question is in the first case. How quickly and without hesitation an innocent man was convicted who had 2 dozen witnesses. That's where the scariest part is.
When $36 million is at stake, you can fabricate anything (including sweat under the hood, and calls from a hidden number), spending no more than one on it.
Of course, I haven't finished everything yet, I don't know what will happen next, but I read that even during the first term, he and his cellmate discussed that in order not to find dna, you need to burn it. And the nephew confessed (although considering how the testimony is beaten out, this is still a big question) that he helped him get rid of the body. But then why didn't they burn the car or at least clean it, otherwise his blood is already at the ignition key. And how did the blood end up there, from a finger? In principle, one might think that such a period (the first one) could really have pushed him to cruelty. But on the other hand, he almost served 18 years for nothing, as he himself said, do they really think that he wants to return to this hell
I'm just shocked by the interrogations. Most of the answers are: Hmmm, I don't know, I don't remember something, I don't remember, I don't think so...No, I didn't say that. I did, but not like that...I can't remember exactly. You can immediately see that people are sure of their complete impunity(((( they have desecrated several lives, destinies, stolen so many years, and only Mark Roer is at least a little like someone who admits his share of responsibility...
