I must be the only person on the planet that did not know about the Steven Avery case, so I came into this book a little blindsided, as I had not seen the Netflix story regarding this.
This book opened my eyes to the corruption in law enforcement, which made my heart sink, as I have always felt that their job was to protect the innocent, and also, you are innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunately, this did occur with Mr. Avery.
Steven Avery was incarcerated for raping a woman, a crime that he did not commit. After being awarded for the injustice the police seemed to have Avery in their sights for revenge (this is the best that I can describe it). Then after Teresa Holbock went missing October 31 2005 and was later found murdered, they (the cops) tried to pin it on Avery, when there was other suspects that were not really questioned. The fact that Avery’s nephew had a computer with disturbing images, web history, etc, was not questioned or looked into further brings up more questions than answers.
Truth be told, I will probably never go to Wisconsin (where this story takes place), however, this book is an eye opener for me on the corruption that is still going on in our country.
