If you haven't watched it or heard about it yet, Making a Murderer is a documentary series on Netflix that is pretty outrageous! It is essentially Serial for TV. If you aren't familiar with that podcast series, download it and listen! It is about a man, Steven Avery, who was falsely convicted of a crime in 1985 and then convicted of a murder in 2005.

It is a series that will leave you on edge and anxious to keep going. It's amazing!

For those that HAVE seen it or are watching it I ask you this:

One of the biggest things the series showed me was how flawed the US judicial system is, and the corruption and influence that police can have on a case. If this case was being tried in current times (2015 lets say), with the wider spread issues of police conduct being a MAJOR concern right now, would the trial have had the same outcome?
 
Makes you think of all the cases in the past...must have been sooooo many cover ups and framed people before technology advancements like DNA testing and surveillance.

Just the cops trying to cover their asses once again. They fucked up and got caught and trying to place blame on someone else. This happens far to often with poor people.

But they include so much hard evidence in the series to prove he dident do it...
 
I watched the first one and a half episodes (maybe I didn't get far enough into it) but was not interested in this at all. The dude is a fucking creep who lit a cat on fire as a teen (thats like the number one sign of a serial murderer!), even if he didn't do this murder I bet he would have killed someone later in life. Kinda the same way as Robbert Durst (I guess opposite ways) but he was a creep and it was pretty obvious he killed those people, just wasnt interesting enough for 7 hours of my life or whatever.

Just to put that into perspective it's a 600 hour trial. Feel free to watch all the tapes if you want.

I understand but its convenient that all the evidence that can make him look innocent is included but some critical evidence against him is left out. Its a completely one sided series
 
Even if he did murder that woman (which I don't think he did) I think it would be only fair to give him 18 years out of prison with 24/hr surveillance since they already took 18 years of his life.

This sums up how I feel about it.
 
When I finished the series I was just passed at how stupid the US system seemed. I would like to hear some of the evidence against him that was left out.

I also read an alternative website that had a theory that the brother in law and the cousins older brother that went "hunting". They were the only two that had seen her as well as Steven. And then it goes on about how in a book it describes how things guy had murder numerous people and dug a hole in the woods and put a log on the body and then made a diesel nitrate bomb and blew them up. Which would explain the body being in small fragments and the fact that it was moved.
