So after bond recommended making a murderer I have watched 6 episodes so far and I have to say it's shocking. Now as of yet I have not formulated an opinion on whether or not he killed that girl but the mere fact that the county police department set him up the first time sickens me and leads u to think he can't and would never get a fair trial.

It's obvious that Steve was not a nice person but the way they locked him up the first time and seemingly have gotten away with it irks me.

They allowed an inocent man go to jail and allowed the guilty man to stay free to commit further crimes.
If anything they should be up for perverting the corse of justice.

{Ed007's Note - I'm halfway through watching it again with my Mrs, Chris. It's terrible what they done to him and just shows what even small police forces/departments are capable of.}

I totally agree mate, although I would lean more towards he done the murder, there is just to much evidence to suggest he did even if u took out the bullet and key etc.

{Ed007's Note - I think he might have done it lol How's that for sitting on the fence? If I'm honest I wouldn't have liked to be on the jury, I think I might have leaned towards not guilty because I wouldn't be 100%, you're messing up so many lives no matter what you choose though. And that excused juror is adamant he was innocent....
I don't want to waste it for you but wait until you see the final episode about the nephew.}

I don't think he did it, and don't necessarily think he's not a nice person (at least not based on what you see on camera) .
It's noted that he has a low IQ and as such, made a few poor decisions in his youth.

The lead prosecutor is disgusting. The live press conference he gives when first indicating Brendan's involvement was damning enough to have a lasting effect on everyone who saw it;

The DNA specialist who broke protocol for the first time in her career, and in doing so used the only piece of "blood evidence" so a retest couldn't be performed;

The complete lack of blood in Avery's trailer or garage (even though Brendan said Avery stabbed her in the neck and cut her head off) ;

The police officer who radioed dispatch to report the missing vehicle a couple of days before it was "found" in Avery's yard;

And so many other loose ends, it's impossible to mention.

The whole thing is bent. This case was unique because it was being filmed from the beginning, as a result of Avery's previous wrongful imprisonment.

It begs the question, how many other cases are based on complete lies?

{Ed007's Note - I struggled at first to get my head round why they had so much footage etc, Joe and I've still avoided reading up on it so far.}
