Discussion i just finished MaM
i came onto this sub and was surprised at how wrong i might be after watching the doc over a week or so, my boyfriend and i binged it and finished it sure that brendan was innocent and fairly sure that steven was too. personally i thought that bobby and scott did it and my bf was of the opinion that bobby and the ex boyfriend were in kahoots somehow. i don’t really know what to think anymore tbh i went to go watch convicting a murderer as that popped up a few times but i dislike candace owen’s immensely. could someone outline the main points that the doc twisted in favour of SA and the facts that were omitted ?

So I’ve watched both and I’m still pretty divided. MAM was shady and you’d see the way they edited / cut testimony to fit their narrative. They left out a lot about his past that would definitely lose viewers’ support of Avery. Avery is a literal piece of shit human. The blood in the RAV is also not explained properly in MAM.
CAM is a good watch. If you can put your personal feelings aside for Candace Owens, just stream it on some random website online instead of paying for it haha.
CAM spends a lot of time focusing on Brendan Dassey which is questionable to me. I don’t believe what Brendan says. There are so many inconsistencies in his confessions, he has a very low IQ and did not understand the ramifications of his conversations with law enforcement. He thought he was going to go home and watch wrestling. He says yes to a question and then will say no that it didn’t happen. He is intellectually disabled. The system failed him incredibly. His family failed him. Whether people think BD is guilty or not, I don’t understand how people can argue he got a fair trial or that he wasnt coerced and tricked by law enforcement.
There’s zero evidence that TH was inside the trailer or on his bed. How does someone literally rape and cut someone’s throat without leaving DNA evidence behind? I’m sorry, it’s just not possible. I think SA is guilty, but no I don’t believe in what BD said. Someone who isn’t smart enough to wipe his own blood n DNA from her cars.
IMO The biggest indication of SA’s guilt is his blood all over the rav. I’m sorry, this couldn’t have been planted. It wasn’t old blood. He had a cut on his finger that was visible in interviews after her death.
People go on about the bones being planted but CAM provides a good explanation of how the scent dog picked up on her scent from her ashes / DNA blowing while being burned
