    Evidence aside, what I pay the most attention to are those who are closest to him and have little reason to be biased.

    Dean Strang seemed pretty appalled at the outcome, months and even years after the trial, that put his client away. In one interview in the documentary he was emotional when describing his dismay with the justice system, clearly referencing the Avery case that had received national attention. Any theatrics would do Steven no good at this point.

    I suppose it's arguable that the filmmakers might have reason to show a film that portrayed Steven Avery as innocent till the end, but would omitting any additional implicating evidence really make the documentary any less compelling and would it not offer an even more controversial spectacle?

    • Sure, but we don't convict nor acquit based on how their lawyer seemed in post-trial interviews.nb
    • Indeed. Good thing I wasn't trying to suggest as much ;)SteveJobs
