    Just started watching this last night.

    I'm an episode and a half in. I'm intrigued.

    Finished this today.Neither one of them should have been convicted based on that evidence (some of which was clearly planted).

    Now whether they are actually guilty...

    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

    Ugh. You're so behind. How have you not devoted your life to finishing this show by now? I posted about it in the TV thread a week ago. Do you work or something?

    Re: Making a Murderer

    "Reasonable Doubt" is what I keep coming back to. I know that there was evidence against Avery that was left out of the documentary, some of it damning, a lot of it circumstantial, but I still believe that there was enough reasonable doubt.

    Re: Making a Murderer

    Found this today:

    Robert Hermann tells TheWrap he has watched the series for the first time and stands by previous statement that Netflix series is “skewed”

    Manitowoc County Sheriff Robert Hermann has watched “Making a Murderer,” telling TheWrap on Monday that he stands by a statement he had made prior to viewing the Netflix series, which he is “not pleased with.”
    “We’re not pleased with the way the film has portrayed us,” added Hermann. “We’ve noticed that the family of Avery and the attorneys are embedded with the film producers, and the attorneys from the get-go have portrayed us in a negative light, but there’s not much we can do to change it.”
    I'm only on the 2nd episode, but I'll say this: I don't think there was a conspiracy to frame Avery. Rather I think early on they decided Avery was the perp and set about to "get him" which led to all sorts of bad decisions on the police and prosecutor's part.

    Come back when you're done with Episode 4.

    Re: Making a Murderer

    I'm on Episode 6 right now, the one that ends with the attorney asking Colburn how he had the license plate number.

    I'm not a cop, but it seems to be the "mistake" made in all of these cases is they investigate a person and not the crime. Now sometimes those are one in the same, but when the focus turns early to one suspect it seems like a lot of questions follow.
