Ok, well I am saying "yet these people know Steven's not (guilty beyond a reasonable doubt)"

which is the same thing as

"yet these people know Steven should've been found (not guilty) because there's reasonable doubt"

imo

I genuinely can't tell if PoorSkillz is smart or dumb at this point. Either way, I give up on this argument.

Just want to state, this is how Colborn was actually involved in the 1995 call:

Wow. Such motive.

I thought that Lenk and the DA must have colluded before Lenk went on the stand, like "Just say you got there at 2pm before notes were being taken on arrivals/departures".

Only to forget about his earlier report that he arrived at 6-7pm.

Looks like he's in good hands.

WTF?

Binged this the last 2 days.

I'M 50/50 on whether SA is guilty but there is no way I would have found him guilty. The entire police department is shady as hell, obviously planted evidence and the entire thing is such a disgrace filled with corruption and abuse of power.

Anyone who was able to find Bendan guilty should be sterilized.
When he asked the cops if he would be out by 1:29 for 6th hour because he had a project due my jaw hit the floor.
He would have confessed to killing JFK if those cops told him to and gave him a sandwich.

I can't understand how two people can go to jail for the same killing that the prosecutor is able to say happened two different ways.

In Kratz closing arguments he basically tells the jury to ignore the obviously planted car key since there is other evidence and that by saying SA didn't commit the murder they are saying the cops killed her.I guess he got the verdict he wanted, but when I heard that i thought what a terrible laughably flawed disingenuous argument from a corrupt hack.

The fake holier than thou moral outrage by the police department over"how dare anyone accuse us over corruption" was beyond offensive. Not only do cops lie all the time and cover each other's asses, in this case the "offended" police department is the same one that railroded the guy on trial into an 18 year jail sentence and one that was supposed to have nothing to do with the current case.

It's also scary that thing like this aren't terrible uncommon. And in the days before DNA it had to be even worse. Same with confessions. When you see how Brendan was made to "confess" it makes you throw up. But before it was video taped you would have only got to read his written statement, seen the pictures he drew and had no idea how coerced it was.

For the people that loved this watch "The Seven Five" on showtime. It's about 2 hours and a documentary about corrupt NYC cops in the 80s which they are interviewing for the documentary.

Emphatically +1

How can this be a flip? HOW!?!?!?!

either he's guilty or he's not, 50-50

My first thought upon seeing that lawyer.

The incredible irony is that the Avery Bill, the bill that required that all police interviews be videod was passed by the legislature on the very day SA is supposed to have murdered Teresa. You can't make this sh*t up!

Damn didn't realise I'd been beaten to it.

I read "The Innocent Man"- John Grishham a few years back.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_In...n_a_Small_Town

This whole case bears striking resemblance to what happened to Ron Williamson

-Bit of a thick person with a history of trouble accused of murder.
-Corrupt small town DA/Police
-Guy spends years on death row and comes within weeks of Death Penalty being carried out before Judge reviews the case and brings it to appeal.
-Very dodgy "dream confessions" by naïve kids

Ahh yeah same. And the only "motive" these cops had was pressure to solve the case. But definitely very similar and quite a good read.

Why not?they let a rapist knowingly go free and rape again.

And let's say they plant drugs on him-good chance he only gets time served if he's found guilty.

I'm guessing these were posted elsewhere in this thread, but its at least a easy to read list, with some damn good **** in it:

sick life

I think the significance of the Innocence Project rejoining SA's side is huge.

#109andcounting

Seems like some fair weather bull**** to me. They remove him from the site, disassociate with him and now that the public is behind SA they hop back on board?

Seems like they are seeking goodwill, not justice.

big omission because who was driving it and where?
Either way, prosecutor's story that it all happened in the compound has another huge flaw.

Similar to Avery's 1985 rape conviction, the prosecution appeared to know that Glen Gore was actually responsible but went after Ron anyway. Baffling??!!

Yeah, well far better than these guys having a say in the world:

But if you have a history of violence and threatening to kill people (like point a gun at someone or beating the **** out of your gf to the point of having a restraining order against you), I'm not gonna be particularly shocked to hear you actually killed someone.
