Just finished binge watching Making a Murderer. Thought it was great, but now can't remember the after-the -fact series issues with the Netflix executives about the total content and/or lack of total transparency. i.e.....their biased presentation of what facts were/were not included in the series.I think you nailed it. It sounds like Steven Avery didn't commit the first crime, the rape in 1985. But then, perplexingly, it seems like he's guilty of the murder of Teresa Halbach. If Steve Avery and his family had been a bit more savvy it seems like they could have found one law firm to litigate both his $36 million wrongful conviction lawsuit and also the murder case. Sure, there's no way he would come close to collecting $36 million. But that suit had to be worth $5 million or so, give or take. It was a shame he settled for a pittance of $400k for 18 years of wrongful imprisonment.True story - documentary series. But clearly biased against Manitowoc cops and detectives (Wisconsin).
IMO, Steven Avery was a bipolar mind and split personalities during 18 years prison time (falsely accused). One aspect, he appeared kindness and happy go lucky guy. He was exonerated and released from prison. The other aspect, insane, growing revenge, SA vs. the world. In other words, time bomb ....... eventually explode. I'm pretty sure Avery found guilty in Teresa Halbach case. Planted and tampered evidences? I say far fetched theory.
The only question, why Teresa Halback victim? I thought only Manitowoc cops and/or Penny Beernsten revenge targets.
And 16 years old Brendan Dassey story (supposedly co-perpetrator partners, Steven Avery nephew). Guilty or not ??... I have no idea. I'm surprised life sentence ... 16 years old
Steven Avery and Brendan Dessey
Teresa Halbach (rape and murder victim)
It did't reasonate with me when it was in the news cycle, but now that I've seen it...........can anyone give me a short cliffs notes version of what the controversy was all about?
