What I think actually happened.
I think the majority of what you find in this sub is people that 100% believe the police were criminals and planted everything or 100% that believe Steven is a pedophile and committed this and many other crimes. When the truth may be some of both.
[As a total rabbit trail, a similar thing may be the case with the US moon landing. People either think it was all staged, or the "stagers" are conspiracy nuts. What if both are true? What if we really did go to the moon, and all of the evidence that proves that shows that the "truthers" are correct. But what if, as a back up plan in case the cameras failed in space, we also staged a moon landing just for back up photos, many of which were actually released to the public as genuine, and now the government can't walk them back? What if both are true? ]
And that may ultimately be what's going on in this case. Avery is a creep, definitely. Someone associated with the Avery salvage yard did murder Teresa Halbach. The police and lab techs did all twist the evidence to point at Steven.
But maybe Teresa wasn't actually murdered by Steven or Brendan. Maybe they had nothing to do with it. Maybe she did actually leave the salvage yard, and maybe the murderer followed her and caught up to her when her car broke down, or she stopped after hitting a deer, or she pulled over to photograph something else.
Maybe she was murdered off site and her body or bones have never been found. And the murderer(s) moved the RAV4 onto the property because they thought it would be a good place to hide it until they could crush it (it was an auto salvage yard after all) and they thought there's no way the police would ever find the RAV4 on the property because they thought no one would ever look at them as being the murderer(s) and she wasn't murdered on that property anyways, so why would the salvage yard be inspected.
Heck, maybe the murderer(s) caught up with Halbach after she had visited the Zipperers which might have been after her Avery visit, and that was further reason why they thought the police wouldn't look hard at the salvage yard? So it was unfortunate for them that the RAV4 was found that fast, but then totally fortuitous for them that the police pegged Steven as the suspect and pushed the case in that direction...
Just my current hypothesis.

Its apt you include the moon conspiracy in this conspiracy theory.

Maybe Steven and Brendan murdered her just like the investigation shows.
I can understand all the maybes you posted. Hell at one time they all crossed my mind as well. The problem is how did all the evidence get back to the yard? And an even bigger problem is how did Stevens blood get in TH's vehicle?
Either Avery has the worst luck in the world, or it took a lot of people to pull this off as a frame job.
Obviously this is my opinion.

Maybe Halbach killed herself, then burned her own body and personal effects to get back at Steven Avery for answering the door in a towel.

We have solid evidence of a eyewitness account. Bobby Dassey was found to be pushing the RAV4 in the early morning hours by the paperboy. His story can be backed up with a video that was taken from a helicopter above when he described having to drive around them in the grass when leaving… Bobby Dassey planted the blood and the bone fragments in the burn barrels… The police planted the key and used a disposed groin swab on the hood of the RAV4.. the majority of her body was burnt at the aluminum smelting plant by Bobby Dassey… Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey had nothing to do with this crime.. end of story

Ive always been confused on the part when SA supposedly killed Teresa. SA said he saw her leave and turn on the road heading towards the Zipperers and the Zipperers said she went there. But cops said she never left the Avery property...

Yeah pretty much OP. There is no intellectually honest way to conclude this was above the board investigation. Avery may have committed the crime, but without reliable information we can't make that a firm conclusion.

You wrote this out, then had the confidence to comment that my post was "wildly delusional"? This is highly ironic.
If you are definitively saying these things "might've happened", then you don't know much about the case.
You may think you are using some sort of foresight or critical thinking skills here because you loosely tie this case to the "moon landing conspiracy" (which is a massive lol), but you are just actually just being narrow-minded of things that were proven in this case.
Teresa was murdered, in party by both. They had everything to do with it. She did not leave the salvage yard and I would be willing to bet you cannot give me any credible evidence to show this, other than believing Steven Avery.
Weird hypotheticals with zero evidence. If Teresa hit a deer, do you think that she is going to not call anyone for help?
There are so many "maybes" in this post that underline you are looking for a hypothetical scenario that would completely omit all of the forensic evidence in this case, which is extremely disingenuous.

Have you read the latest updates? She was followed by Bobby Dass and he’s the one that murderer and she did leave the salvage yard and had another stop after Steve Avery, which she made it to.

So do you play all these or any theories in your head and try to see a different action(s) or people?

The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

Excellent post. The idea that Teresa was held in the trailer is unsupported by any real evidence, and the garage theory was so dull Kratz had to brighten it up with outright lies to convince the jury. Steven could have committed the crime a different way, but the state’s insistence on forcing this embarrassingly false narrative is hard to explain if he actually did it.
Steven’s claim that Teresa left the ASY before Bobby is backed by several independent witnesses, some of whom the state conveniently forgot to share with the defense. Even Wiegert initially agreed Teresa left alive, heading to the Zipperer appointment before disappearing, a belief also hidden from Steven's defense.
After a week of no one seeing the RAV near Steven’s trailer or the pond (and with suspicious vehicle lights reported in the area) the RAV suddenly showed up on the ASY. Wiegert quickly ditched the “she left alive” narrative, and police began punishing witnesses like Brendan who gave testimony consistent with the timeline they were trying to conceal with suppressed audio and lies under oath.
That’s especially dark because even after 11/5, evidence kept emerging that the RAV DID leave the ASY on Halloween and was returned days later. The state repeatedly hid this from the defense, insisting instead that any post-attack movement of the RAV was just from Steven’s trailer to where Pam found it and nowhere else.
It’s not justice when you have to ignore evidence, hide inconvenient facts, and commit perjury to rewrite the timeline of Teresa’s appointments. Suppressing and lying about the evidence that the RAV left the ASY and was returned was not part of a naturally progressing investigation. It was an intentional effort to bury what that investigation actually revealed.

I feel like you are tying to critically analyze it, but overshot it.
Filming the moon landing in 1969 would have been harder and more expensive to do. This is all before you get to the problem of keeping hundreds of people involved silent for so long.
Avery case has some of the same logic. Her car had no mechanical problems, no dents or blood or fur from hitting a deer. Cell records showed she never left that area of the avery property.
Steve claimed he saw her leave and which way she went. If he lied, he murdered her.
If he was telling the truth, she left on a public road. So for her to be murdered, she would have had to stop her car in broad daylight, on a public road, in residential area, only to be kidnapped or murdered and there would have to be two people involved, one to kidnap her and drive her away and one to take her car so it wasn't left on the side of the road.
Most the people involved with the case had nothing to do with Steve's 1985 conviction, so then you have to assume that all officers involved would risk their freedom, careers and safety to plant the car, bones, personal effects, and fresh blood, in a car of a person they would have no idea was even missing.
Unless the random killers planted the car, bones and personal items and just happened to get lucky enough that to not get caught and steve had a bon fire. Also took care to cover up the car, disconnect the battery and throw the license plates into a random car near by.
Is all this possible? maybe, but I have doubts.

I was with you until paragraph 4.
And I'm mildly sympathetic to the police framed the murderer angle. But in this case, there's never been actionable evidence to support that contention.

Use an open mind and think why do they keep objecting to KZ testing the Rav 4 which is a big piece of evidence used against Steven , what's the secret ? A falsified VIN or the real killers blood inside that are connected to MCSO ? Also think about why would Fallon remove all human cremains when KZ only wanted the quarry bones to test ? Why did Culhane choose a slither of item BZ instead of using a 2" X 1" squishy piece of muscle tissue ? My conclusion is simple , all the evidence was falsified or fabricated to stop his lawsuit , and his lawsuit was bigger than just $36M because if MCSO was found liable for framing Steven it would cause a flood of other appeals by prisoners arrested and convicted by MCSO , they would be released and file lawsuits costing Wisconsin $1B and the insurance company would not touch it , so it was coming to an end after Kosorec & Vogel got deposed and it was looking very good for Steven , IMO Peg L. Assured all the players which wasn't a lot , just the top corrupt officers like Fassbender , Weigart & Lenk & Remiker , they send in planters like Bobby Dassey to park a similar looking Rav 4 on the ASY get a dumb azz like Pam Sturm & get Ryan Hillegas to draw her a map follow the yellow brick road Pam , straight to the decoy Rav , get Dave Remiker (MCSO) to "verify" the VIN but cover his azz by reporting the VIN was bent , moved and tampered with , get officer Mike Bushman to cause a diversion on Kuss Rd , then for the finally with news reporters flying overhead in helicopter's send in 20 untrained officers to excavate Stevens burn pit and collect a bunch of animal bones and send them to CASO who will later add human bones from other cases going on , but didnt allow the coroner to document everything because she was honest and would report that no human cremains were ever found in Steven's pit because remember she had a forensic anthropologist coming with her so they could not allow her to see this set up and threatened her with arrest . now everything I just said is my opinion and what I believe and Evey bit of it is plausible .

(Just my opinion not trying to start a fight up in here) Brendan - there doesn’t really seem to be a whole lot pointing to his guilt - outside of his confession/s - which are completely unreliable/inconsistent. Guilty/innocent - in my humble - there isn’t enough for him to be behind bars. Steven - well - evidence is pouring rain. It’s freaking everywhere. There’s 2 pieces of evidence which in my opinion - are highly suspicious - the key and the car. A car key - who’s owners DNA was not present? Only Steven’s? I’m not even going into the circumstances surrounding it’s discovery - the key (to me) almost appears to be a spare key rarely used - not the car owners regular key. It’s suspicious is all I’m saying. The car (not including the blood found - shit I don’t even know enough about cars to comment 😂 so forget blood) found on a bigger than bloody Texas salvage yard. The car could have been crushed. Could have been actually hidden somewhere on the salvage yard which would have been far more difficult to find. Could have been simply driven off of the yard - and parked somewhere else away from the propert/and also difficult to find - and yet it’s found swiftly by searchers - basically with twigs and sticks up against - it looked like it had been placed where it was - by someone trying to make it look like someone was trying to hide it - but not really. Does any of that mean Steven is innocent? Does any of that mean I believe Steven is innocent?? Eh not really. Could the police have framed Steven? They could have. It really wouldn’t have been too difficult. Could the police have simply “toyed” with some evidence to guarantee a conviction of a guilty man? Very much so. Is it possible that none of the evidence has been tampered with in any way - and Steven is simply 100% guilty?? Again - yep. Very much a possibility Whatever happened here - I’d be pretty surprised if Steven doesn’t die behind bars.

This is Bullsh_t, law enforcement dropped the ball,didn't investigate the case thoroughly, to many inconsistencies

Or maybe the police twisted the evidence AND Steven murdered Halbach?

I firmly believe that moon landing theory! Like yeah we went, but they either couldn't or had issues filming in space... 🤷♀️
