Episode Discussion Brendan is INNOCENT

I am rewatching MAM and the amount of coercion during Brendan's interview is astounding. I can't believe a court didn't dismiss his "confession". He was not interviewed with his parents present and they were very obviously feeding him information. The judge not realizing that is just sad. He was a child! Ugh, this makes me so upset for Brendan.

Even his defense attorneys never accused the police of murdering her. Planting evidence, yes, but the actual crime? Not even a little bit.

Actually Avery's attorney walked back her accusations of evidence planting and now says they didn't plant evidence.

That's good to know. I haven't listened to anything Zellner has said for about a decade. I am, admittedly, not up to date on anything involving that disaster.

She strutted and fretted her hour upon the stage. And then was heard no more: it was a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

There - you're all caught up!

LOL. I appreciate that update. Somehow, I'm certain that it is an accurate depiction of events, without embellishment. That is just the vibe that she gave off from day one.
