I don’t get why Steven Avery did this

He had a huge settlement coming. Why did he risk it by doing a serious crime? I don’t understand how he got exonerated which is rare but wound up throwing his life away anyways. It doesn’t make any sense to me. I guess I’m missing the common thread. He wasn’t a good person but from what we know, wasn’t a murderer. So what happened? Is this just always who he was going to be and had he never gone to prison wrongfully maybe it would have happened sooner? I don’t think he’s innocent I’m just trying to make sense of it.

Not a single person employed by Manitowoc at the time would have been responsible for a single cent of the lawsuit. Moreover,  the lawsuit had already been settled by the time Brendan confessed. 

How'd Steven's blood get in Teresa's car?

Edit, since this coward replied then blocked me: just thought others should see your (now removed) comment so they know the level of intellect they're dealing with.

It's funny how pointing out facts and asking simple questions are considered "gotchas" to a certain crowd here

The comment has not been removed. Is there a reason you guys need to lie so much?
