Making a Murderer

My husband and I started watching Making a Murderer the other day. And we only have 1 episode left. With him working 10 hour days, 5 (sometimes 6) days a week, it can be a bit hard finding time to watch all the things we want to watch together.

Anyway…

I know the documentary is rather one sided and I already read about all the information that the doc left out. And when I heard what he did to that poor cat (dosed it in oil and threw it in fire), I’m not going to lie, I wanted him to die a slow and horrible death. But how the county acted just pisses me off like you wouldn’t believe. I was shouting at the TV. How could people who we are suppose to trust, who’s job is to uphold and follow the law act in such a disrespectful and unlawful manner. It just boggles my mind.

At the moment, I think Brandon is probably innocent and I’m not sure whether or not Steve Avery killed Teresa Halbach. But that doesn’t really matter since I am 100-percent sure that the police planted evidence and because of that, he deserves another trial with that evidenced thrown out. And that is a complete shame since that poor young women’s death is overshadowed by the complete lack of justice and pure assholeness (that’s a word, trust me) that the police department showed.

If he did murder Teresa Halbach but is allowed to walk free because of the planted evidence and then he murders again, then every single law enforcement officer (or anyone else that had a hand in planting the evidence) should be held accountable for that new death.

Steven Avery’s new lawyer has taken to Twitter to not only vocalize his innocence but to also hint that they know who the real murderer is and will be working on getting Steven out of jail. I thought that Steven Avery’s brother-in-law, Scott Tadych, may have had something to do with it. That guy just rubbed me the wrong way and seemed rather suspicious. But I also think that Teresa Halbach’s ex-boyfriend or her roommate could also have had something to do with it. Their actions just seemed odd to me.

Have you watched Making a Murderer? Do you think Steve Avery is guilty?

 

 

Valentine’s Day 2016

I hope y’all had a happy Valentine’s Day. We actually celebrated Valentine’s Day on Friday because Mike had to work Sunday. We went up to Petco to get my Valentine’s Day gift from him, a cat tree. I have been wanting a cat tree for our kitties for a while now but always put it off for one reason or another. So I was extremely happy to finally have it. And all three cats are enjoying it. Especially Nefarian and Widget. Jedi, who will be 10 years old this spring, isn’t as excited about it as the other two. He’s more indifferent. He will lay on it here and there but is more content sleeping on his blanket beside me. Nefarian and Widget, however, love it so much. It was definitely worth the price tag and I am so happy that Mike got it for me.

Let’s Hope February is Better

January wasn’t the best month with the passing of David Bowie, Alan Rickman and, the worst of it all, the death of my husband’s grandfather, Rev. Don Flanigan. Throw on the pile some cold days and the horrible winter storm Jonas and you have a recipe for a dreary and depressing month.

I’m hoping, however, that this new month brings a bit more happiness, calmness and just all around more positiveness than the previous month to my family as well as anyone else who has had a not-so-great January.

On a positive note, The X-Files (one of my all time favorite shows) came back for a special 6 episode event and I am more than loving the fact the Mulder and Scully are back in my life. And Deadpool will be in theaters soon, as well as the return of the Walking Dead.

So, what are you most looking forward to in February?
