OT: The Staircase

[G-Dawg]

I know Evil Genius and some other shows were discussed earlier. Have any of y'all seen "The Staircase"? Wife and I finished it up last night. That's some really weird stuff. Film crew followed him around for almost 15 years.

I think the law enforcement did some ****** stuff, the state didn't prove their case even though they got a conviction, but I still think he did it.

Just finished up to where they finished the first trial. Hopefully it gets really good from here on out. So far its been pretty......meh.

Yes I have about 2 or 3 episodes left. I find it hard to believe that in 2001 they were filming this from the get go. Like who's idea was that?

I started to look into this and see if this is one of those "docudramas" where it's up to the viewer to decide what's real and what's fiction. Upon doing this I got a tiny spoiler, so I stopped my research, but then the whole thing turned on its head from the initial spoiler I read, so I'm a few episodes left and not sure what's going to happen.

Personally, the guy comes off extremely narcissistic and I think he most likely beat her and covered the weapon with a pillow case or something to keep blood spatter to a minimum.

Then on the other side of it there seems to be a lot of "wtf" moments in the court room and what was allowed as evidence and then the whole issue with the blood spatter "expert."

Anyone here watched Wormwood? It has a kinda unsatisfying conclusion, but I think it was the point of the series

Spoiler

because anyone and everyone in the CIA who knows the truth is taking it to the grave.
