That makes no sense. Only the die hard fans showed up, and nobody else knows what's happening? How could they if they didn't show up?

We all should be.

I just tweeted "water is wet" and now I'm afraid I'll lose my job.

I agree. What I heard was a man trying and failing to play Smoke on the Water.

I'll read the article when I have time, but for now I will say this: he was convicted of murdering a woman once before, and nobody disputes that he was innocent of that crime, despite any history he may have of being threatening or unpleasant to woman. I don't disagree that the documentary is problematic though, and I…

Okay, I looked that up - seems to have been reported in 2016 so they couldn't possibly have included it in the 2015 documentary. In any case, it has no baring on the actual case.

Fair enough, my apologies for misreading your comment.

No one ever said he "issued death threats" during his first spell in prison. Another inmate alleged that he talked about building torture chambers, etc. So we have no evidence that Avery said these things other than the word of a convicted murderer. No wonder they left it out, it's not evidence.

Sure, by all means laugh out loud at the idea of someone with learning difficulties struggling to read.

So no potential miscarriage of justice should ever be brought to light because it brings up painful memories for people?

The 'left out' evidence is all so weak as to barely qualify as evidence at all. You don't care that the process was abused in order to secure a conviction? You should. I understand that you could think Avery was guilty but Dassey? Really? What about the fact that his account of the murder was completely different from…

Sheesh, don't be so fucking disingenuous. The argument is that his youth and mental impairment would have made it easier to bully him into a false confession, not that it made him incapable of committing murder. And you know that.

Sure, a 16 year old with learning difficulties could never be bullied by a couple of police detectives into telling them what they wanted to hear. Except, oops, it's right there on tape that that's what they did. At one point he's clearly struggling to guess that they're trying to get him to say she was shot in the…

Steven Avery's blood wasn't found at the scene that Darcy described in his confession. No physical evidence was found at that location at all. The thing is, Darcy was convicted on the basis that the murder was committed in the place and in the manner that he described in his confession. Steven Avery was convicted on…

It was a drunken racist rant onstage in support of the National Front. It was a long time ago and I for one am past it. But the dude above said that it didn't "seem egregious". I imagine even Clapton wouldn't agree with that.

*what it's like.

It's bizarre. Surely it's only intense hatred of PP that would lead anyone to believe in that claptrap. But apparently not in this case.

He's going to get unbelievably hot and sweaty out there in that shapeless overcoat he's been wearing since November. Maybe he'll just sort of expire.

Perhaps even a short spell in prison.

Swear to God, as I typed my reply to you, I was thinking "I bet it's that Russell Howard." Yes, he's real a shitehawk.
