Havent read the thread through but does anyone actually believe Brendan had anything to do with the murder?
Well he did confess. He also told his cousin about it, which she then reported to a school counselor and then the authorities. The cousin then claimed she made it all up for no particular reason. He also told his mother on a recorded phone call.

Yeah, but lostinthesaus was referencing expert opinion and you took the contrary. You're the flat-earther in your analogy.

"Moira and Laura, you were wrong"
"Netflix, you are wrong"

"Kathy and Innocence Project Lawyer Bushnell you and your entire team are certainly wrong"
"All of reddit, WRONG".

Red= not expert
Lime green= bias, people defending SA

There are not unbiased expert opinions he has offered here. Just majority opinion, most of whom are layman.

It is also important to note that it is still an adpoulum argument unless he can demonstrate that the overwhelming majority of experts agree with him, like you would in the scientific method. that can't really be demonstrated here ever because law doesn't work the same way as science.

Uh... I'll just assume there's been some misunderstanding somewhere and give you the benefit of the doubt, because you seem to be saying the people that made a 10 hour documentary on this topic are not experts, and I'm not sure how to respond to that.

Well it's a good thing some people didn't make a 10 hour documentary showing this wrongness otherwise this might be a holy false equivalency batman.

That is correct. They are not experts. And on top of that they have a bias to make a good tv show.

So if someone is willing to make a doc you automatically take their opinion as reliable? So the people who made loose change are experts and we should agree that 9-11 was an inside job? How many fallacies can someone commit in one post. Mind boggling.

Kathleen Zellner believes she will be able to achieve the total exoneration of Mr Avery with the presentation of this new evidence. “We are confident Mr. Avery’s conviction will be vacated when we present the new evidence and results of our work to the appropriate court.

Did you see the documentary? Have you opened any internet page ever regarding Making a Murderer*?

*does not include stevenaverycase.com
I'm taking into account the questions raised in the documentary about various pieces of evidence. Note that it's possible that evidence was planted but Avery is still guilty.

The defended raised a certain degree of doubt. The question is whether it surpasses the threshold of reasonable doubt. It's certainly possible to make the argument that it does.

My point is that the debate should be between "guilty beyond a reasonable doubt" and "probably guilty but sufficient doubt to acquit."

So she's pinning the entire appeal on the luminol testing? Good luck with that.

Funny,

I thought she had new evidence before she took the case? Why is she basing testing that she did after taking the case for her appeal? And what exactly does she think Luminol testing is going to prove 15 years later?

I am legit surprised people don't see this for what it is.

they talk about some evidence, it s unlikely to be luminol related

The key piece of new evidence Zellner will present is said to be provided by advanced Luminol testing. Luminol reactions are used to detect blood residue that is unseen to the naked eye, by reacting in such a way that stains become visible under a blacklight. It’s basically the trick that you’ve seen in every episode of CSI/Silent Witness/NCIS ever: but for some reason no one has ever thought to use it until now. Go figure.

This will allegedly prove the complete historical absence of Teresa’s blood from key areas of the Avery’s property, proving that Teresa Halbach was killed in neither Steven’s trailer, nor his garage, as former State Prosecutor Ken Kratz had claimed.
I don't see any other evidence mentioned, at least not in that linked article.

I dont think she mentioned anything and it s pure journalist speculation, I cannot see what luminol could bring as a new evidence when she keep talking about potentialy identifying the real murderer, now it s very possible she is full of **** but that doesnt seems likely to be from the luminol itself that the evidence will come from, most likely she used luminol to check some possible theories and that s it

This is a possibility I suppose.

This isn't him making anything up. He is just telling us what he thinks is correct. Nowhere does he say this is fact or that he is sure it is true.

Ok, well, I think we have wildly different opinions on what it means to be a relative expert of something in context.

I also think we have wildly different definitions of 'bias'.

Eddymitchel is right for once - that article is complete trash. The only quotes from Zellner in the article are taken from the same standard email reply she's been sending out since a month ago.

I'm really intrigued as to how Zellner eventually exits this case though:

will it be a loud proclamation that the justice system is so corrupt that even the Great Zellner can't save Steven?

or silently drifting away and distancing herself from the case over the course of several years?

or will she be able to pull off her greatest magic trick yet?

Or maybe she just does what she does best and overturns wrongful convictions?
