I've just started watching a documentary on Netflix called Making a Murderer. It's got me hooked so bad that I watched the first 9 episodes back to back.
Anyone else watching it, the first season is about a guy called Steven Avery who was wrongfully jailed for rape. I don't want to give any more away, you could google it, but it would spoil it for you if you wanted to watch the series with an open mind.

Yep watched the entire thing in quick succession. Certainly enough twists and turns to keep things interesting although we did have to keep reminding ourselves that it was fact not fiction. Not sure it's an overly balanced documentary which you may discover doing a quick Google search after, but an interesting watch none the less.

Yep, I will do a bit of research when I've finished watching.
What an a-hole Brendans first lawyer was.

Just finished watching, wow, what a show. It's hard to know what to think. A lot of conflicting evidence and some pretty bad defence lawyers, put that with a system that makes it hard for poor/disadvantaged people to get a fair hearing, just makes you wonder.
