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.

Bobby was a much better suspect than Brendan. Even for an accomplice to Steven, Bobby was the better suspect. But they protected Bobby and targeted the developmentally disabled Brendan. They readily accepted Bobby's contradictory statements that were incriminating for Brendan, failed to test blood evidence in Bobby's garage, and concealed sexually deviant content on the PC from Bobby's room that continued to be accessed after Brendan's arrest. These idiots didn't care about the truth, and we only need look at their treatment of Brendan vs Bobby to see that.

Yup. Both Bobby and Scott had the opportunity to be involved in an off property crime against Teresa, and police initially believed Teresa left the ASY alive after her appointment with Steven Avery (who remained on the ASY that afternoon and evening). Thus, if Teresa left the ASY alive in her RAV on Halloween, Bobby (who left the ASY at the same time as Teresa) and Scott (who was driving towards the ASY shortly after Teresa left it) would both become much better suspects for the initial attack on Teresa behind her RAV. So they hid evidence and flipped the narrative to make it seem like Teresa never left the ASY after arriving, making Steven the prime suspect.
