Actually, the DNA lady was totally right about the fact that the test indicated a positive for Teresa's DNA on the bullet and that the presence of self-contamination in the null sample shouldn't disqualify the result. The "contamination re-do" rule the defense was arguing about was overly strict, and the DNA lady was trying to choose her words carefully so she could explain that without overstepping. Teresa's DNA clearly ended up in the test tube the bullet was washed in, and not in the null tube. The argument then becomes "how'd Teresa's DNA get on the bullet" and the most likely explanation is that teresa's blood seeped into the bullet's crater on the garage floor and the bleaching didn't fully sterilize the cratered bullet. You can also argue that the police planted it. I don't think you can make a reasonable argument that Teresa's DNA in the lab test tube came from contamination. As for the lack of EDTA on the Rav4 samples, EDTA is a stable substance and doesn't degrade in the environment. Since there was no EDTA in the RAV4 Avery blood smears, then the blood in Teresa's car came from Avery directly and not from the tube. There's no other reasonable explanation for Avery's blood in Teresa's car besides "Avery bled on her car while loving around in it." Why no Avery fingerprints in the car? He wore gloves according to Brendan, but the process of putting gloves on in the dark with a bloody finger would almost definitely result in Avery's blood on the outside of the gloves. Which would transfer from the outside of the gloves to the interior of the car. Why didn't Avery crush the car? Because he realized that would implicate a family member if the car was later found, and he told Brendan that burning the body was a better solution. "boehner" posted:The process of gathering the evidence and extremely hosed up police handling of the situation create enough reasonable doubt about either of their involvement that neither Avery nor Brendan should be behind bars, especially since this same county already wrongfully sent this man to prison for 18 years. I was all in favor of the guy getting $34 million from the state, and his heir/family should receive that. But committing a murder after his release shouldn't be ignored just because he got falsely imprisoned once. quote:Well, that's all OK, then. Have a nice day Vic Mackey. quote:If you believe the key was planted then everything else mentioned in the defence is a real possibility. Particularly on top of the fact that there's no reasonable timeline that has Teresa being murdered off the Avery property. quote:And you're pointing to this as likely to be a real confession? Yeah, it's a textbook on how mistakes can be made in an interview, but that doesn't mean you throw the entire thing out. Read both interviews in totality and tell me Brendan didn't see some horrible poo poo go down and then lie and cover it up for months before leaking a mishmash of truth and cover story out in his interviews. Honestly, the worst thing about Brendan's case is attorney Len's behavior, which was unethical and criminal. But that all happened long after the March 1st Brendan interview. Steven Avery admits to standing with Brendan at a bonfire, in a pit behind his house where Teresa's corpse was found, on the night of the murder. He stoked it with tires and a car seat to get it to burn hotter. It's mindblowing that anyone can look at that and reasonably think he wasn't torching a body.

I don't think that's accurate. A lot of the people in Wisconsin who I've heard/seen comment on this were very open minded about the case, and on the other hand I think it's entirely possible to watch the documentary with relatively little previous exposure and conclude that Avery is probably guilty.

There's no other reasonable explanation for Avery's blood in Teresa's car besides "Avery bled on her car while loving around in it."

But committing a murder after his release shouldn't be ignored just because he got falsely imprisoned once. I'm not, I'd hate to see what that would do to people who need services in the area. Realistically, though, even if he hadn't been forced to settle to pay for his lawyers the eventual payout would've been much lower than $34m. Even if the award was fairly high, say $20m, I doubt he'd end up collecting on all of it. quote:You have a reasonable explanation for how Avery's blood is all over the inside of Teresa's car? If not, that's enough evidence to convict right there. If I recall correctly, *Teresa's* blood was all over the inside of the car, his was just in that one spot near the ignition. That's part of what makes me skeptical of the EDTA testing: if he tested samples from elsewhere in the car but not that one in particular, of course there would be no EDTA. Since we don't see his full testimony, we can't know for sure. Much more damning to me is the sweat evidence under the hood. The main thing I would've had to hear as a juror, though, is that it was conclusively Steven and not just a familial match. quote:The level of detail of much of Brendan's two interviews, in totality, is way too in sync with dozens of pieces of physical evidence to be completely bullshit. Just because some details don't match up or some of the techniques were leading doesn't mean you disregard the entirety of both interviews. Brendan brought up rape first. I believe he brought up stabbing first. I believe he brought up bleaching the garage with Avery first and getting bleach on his pants, and the details about where the RAV4 was moved, and where the body was moved various times. The kid was too accurate, and wasn't led into EVERY fact. I just can't trust anything that Brendan said because he is *such* an unreliable witness. Even if he was describing actual events in one or two quotes, they're embedded in so much bullshit. I also don't trust that a kid who has to go back and live with these people (he thinks) would necessarily implicate the correct person if fingering Steven rather than Earl/Chuckie/Bobby/Scott (pick one or more) seemed like the best way to feel safe at home. quote:Steven Avery admits to standing with Brendan at a bonfire, in a pit behind his house where Teresa's corpse was found, on the night of the murder. He stoked it with tires and a car seat to get it to burn hotter. It's mindblowing that anyone can look at that and reasonably think he wasn't torching a body. I don't know, man, having a bonfire on freaking Halloween night is not really suspicious behavior. And I have a hard time getting over the bones in the quarry.

With all the media attention and petitions surpassing 100k signers, I hope the cops connected to this case are crapping themselves. I wonder if any journalists are banging on Lenk's door right about now.precision posted:And remember that the boyfriend/roommate straight up admit that they hacked into her voicemail, and IIRC one of them says something like "I don't remember if I deleted any voicemails" (emphasis mine). The most convincing explanation I've heard for this bull poo poo is that it's very likely the ex-boyfriend was actually stalking her. The brother knew and didn't like him. But then she turns up missing and/or dead, and even though the brother dislikes the ex-boyfriend, they collude to delete voice mails where the ex-boyfriend threatens her. From the brother's point of view, even though the ex-boyfriend is a rear end in a top hat (possibly even stalker), he didn't kill her. I'm pretty sure both of those guys have solid alibis. There's a reason why the defense team did not mention the brother as a potential suspect.

I got to dig it out again but there's a pretty good video showing that you could take a sweaty gross sock or something similar and basically rub it on an item to get the same touch dna results, they even state in the case the forensics professional hosed up a test just by talking too close to it. His dna on or near the car doesn't really prove anything since he was known to be near it. As for the blood samples the agent said that he only tested 3 out of 7 samples and was without a doubt 100% sure there was 0 edta on this sketchy as gently caress test to begin with even on ones he didn't test and had this weird combative attitude the whole time. I think Avery is creepy as gently caress specially with the fact he is obviously preying on woman from within jail as evidenced by the two crazies he was dating within the doc but his trial was an embarrassing sham and I honestly don't know what to think other than he and dassy deserved better.

And I don't see what him saying rape first has to do with anything considering literally no one has any idea whatsoever if she was raped and the entirety of rape being involved here is based off of the plot of a loving movie that a borderline retarded kid recited from memory because he just wanted to go back to school.

Dude pointed a gun at his wife. Think about what you might do if you heard some hillbilly rear end in a top hat your wife already hates pulled this poo poo.

Brendan said they later burned her clothes and the sheets and blankets to get rid of the blood evidence.

It's a sign of how dishonest the documentary makers were willing to be that they showed the defense attorney making a big stink about the puncture hole in the top of the blood vial without providing context for why that hole was there. People who work with blood every day don't want open vials, they want blood traveling from sealed tube to sealed tube to sealed tube, and they don't want to be popping open vials so the blood can spatter--they want to add or remove chemicals (like EDTA to keep it from coagulating) via a syringe through the top of the vial. Also, here's more Brendan, talking with his mom and admitting he and Steven did bad stuff together that night: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lr7iif6ca3xp5sa/Transcript%20-%20May%2013%2C%202006%20%28Dassey%20to%20Mother%29.pdf?dl=0 Mom: "What all happened, what are you talking about?"

I don't think he feels either way about Avery, but he also dropped some bullshit about how the documentary is "dramatized" and isn't the full truth. Which is almost certainly authoritarian appeal based on the nonsense Kratz is circulating to discredit it, since my dad hasn't watched Making a Murderer yet. So yeah, it's basically impossible for Wisconsin people who followed this case previously to walk in with an open mind. Besides, even if people are contending that the filmmakers aren't objective (no poo poo, and neither are Super Size Me, Murder on a Sunday Morning, Citizenfour, Inside Job, etc), it's blatantly obvious that evidence was planted, the investigation was continuously tampered with, and that the prosecution had a hilariously motivated grudge against the Avery family. The underlying purpose of the documentary isn't to prove Avery's innocence anyways. Honestly, it's largely irrelevant and completely missing the forest for the trees to debate whether or not he killed Halbach. It almost doesn't matter. The creators wanted to depict how the Manitowoc County criminal justice institution (and the broken justice system itself) "made a murderer" through their disgusting actions, and advancing how this increasingly happens to socioeconomically disadvantaged defendants all across the United States.

it doesn't make sense to flawlessly clean the garage for DNA but leave a pile of bones 30 feet from the house. It's ridiculous. Clearly Avery should have been found not guilty due to reasonable doubt although I do believe he was likely innocent. His phone call to Jodi the night of the murder just does not sound like someone who just killed someone. Seeing that all the evidence was obviously planted there's not much else to go on. If someone was stalking her they may have timed the killing with her meeting avery.

The only time I remember the doc hinting that she had a stalker was her coworker telling the story of her receiving a call and ignoring it, but seeming upset by it. I forget when they showed this, but the implication was that there was an unknown other that had a motive to kill her. The filmmakers then conveniently leaving out the evidence of Avery calling her repeatedly before Oct 31 is one of the worst instances of their bias, in my opinion.
