Once again we are take inside the world of police work done by amateurs and prejudiced characters. The idea that the last person to see someone alive is likely to be the perpetrator doesn't always wash. It is really an effort to prove a negative. The lawyers for Avery are beginning to plant doubt wherever they can. There are six counts against their man, but reasonable doubt is moving in. The prosecution keeps parrying with the defense. The trial is about to begin and we are uncertain how much they can do against an event that has already been tried in the press. We need to remember sometimes that people are truly innocent until proved guilty.

Making a Murderer: The Last Person to See Teresa Alive (2015)

The fifth episode in Netflix's series takes us into the court room as Steven Avery's lawyers begin to question various bits of DNA that the police said they found at his place but they also call into question why Avery was the first person the police went after and they also ask the question of who was the last person to see Teresa alive.

I'm not going to give my opinion of the case or my thoughts on what the verdict should be until I see the entire film but I must say that some of the stuff here is just shocking. I mean, how much stuff is this judge going to allow to happen before he questions people? As I said about the fourth episode, if these twists were happening in a fiction, script-based story people would laugh them off the screen as being unbelievable yet here we are in a fact-based story and it's hard to believe what we're seeing.

Episode: A-
