Remember Huffington Post thinks he is guilty along with most of the mainstream media. I would like to know the party affiliation of some of the key government players in this.Estand wrote:Coincidentally, we just watched episode 1 last night. I avoided reading your complete post as to avoid any spoilers. So far interesting story. I hope it's not a matter of leftist twisted facts to make a good story though.

Making a Murderer: is anyone watching it on Netflix?
Sorry if this has been posted already. I looked and didn't find it.
I have watched the first episode of this documentary on Netflix. My son has watched 5 episodes and it is all he is talking about. My brother has watched the whole thing and says it is very powerful.
It revolves around a man who was wrongly convicted of rape in the '80's. He spends 18 years in prison and refuses to confess and get early parole. The innocence project tests the DNA in 2001 and sure enough, it matches a local sex offender that the police knew about way back then. This rapist is already in prison for the sex crimes he committed after this man was wrongly convicted. It seems the local Sheriff took special interest in this case and despite the local city police telling him about the real rapist, the Sheriff continues to pursue the wrong man.
Once freed the man returns home and files a lawsuit against the County for 35 million for the apparent intentional mistakes the police and the DA made.
But before his civil trial begins, he is accused of the murder of a woman he barely knew. Evidence seems conveniently at his doorstep pointing to his guilt.
Other suspects like boyfriends and exboyfriends, etc. are not investigated. His DNA is everywhere for the police to find. But of course a vial of his blood from the original evidence in the rape case seems to be tampered with.
The civil law suit it is settled for almost nothing, because the man needs money to pay the new attorneys in the murder case.
His is convicted of this murder and is now still in prison. He is not allowed, by court order, to see the documentary.
The Huffington Post seems to think there is nothing to see here, move along.
But everyone else who has watched the series thinks this guy was framed for a second time and are outraged at the governments conduct.
From what I have seen, he certainly was framed the first time. I'll let you know as I watch more.
