It took me a week to watch this documentary. It was so heavy and cruel that I could only watch 1-2 episodes a day, and then wait for the time to calm my anger, sympathy and helplessness after watching it. I think everyone who watched this documentary must have the same feeling as me.
It just so happened that the news in the last few days has been covering the progress of the Hugh case. I don't know anything about this case, but as far as I know (just give the party a warning and make a demerit) the statement of "violating national laws and punishing family rules" is not too much. Some people would say that China's Huge case, Nie Shubin case and Chen Man case are much worse than Stven's. Yes, because we have the death penalty. Some of them have long since been shot out of this world. Yes, I shudder to think about this. What do you think about this documentary, which is why we watch and discuss Making Murderers?
First, in China, not only can we not see similar documentaries, but also how the police handle cases, interrogations, and the whole process of court trials. And "Making a Murderer" has a lot of details. These stanzas all become the best clues to our reasoning.
Second, from the United States to China, we can imagine how many people are suffering from such torment and torture. What if our relatives, friends, or even ourselves were involved in the whole case? As Steven's defense lawyer said: "We can guarantee that we will not commit a crime for a lifetime, but we cannot guarantee that we will not be charged by others for a lifetime. As far as the current judicial system is concerned, we can only ask for more for ourselves."
Third, the judicial system of Wisconsin in the United States is so corrupt and officials colluded. Does it indicate the beginning of corruption in the US government (will spread to more states in the future)? 1. Collusion between the police and the police. The police in the first case did not evade suspicion and continued to search. 2. The police and prosecutors (later it was reported that his work ethic was questionable, sexually harassing women, etc.) and even the lawyer who was supposed to defend Brendan began to frame him. 3. The staff was "requested" to detect the DNA of the deceased, which happened to be caused by her mishandling that day. 4. The FBI even claimed that they did not detect EDTA. I said it would take a long time before, but it came out in a few weeks. 5. During the jury jury, a person left because of an emergency at home. But they had voted before, at least seven acquitted Steven, but the votes fell to the other side. How dirty is behind these chilling things? You and I think it's scary.
Or in terms of the current human judicial system, the moon in the United States is not rounder than China's, as the defense lawyer said, "This is because our human society is not yet familiar with the control of justice"?
Except for the shock of the case itself. The two directors who insisted on making the documentary, the two lawyers who defended Steven, and Steven himself all made me feel a sense of insistence on justice (of course you can refute me because Americans don't use punishment. But we can see the interrogation The video has to admit that the United States is doing better than us). Steven insisted on his innocence from beginning to end, and he also remained kind when he was blamed by the victim and insulted by the judge. I really admire what he said at the final hearing "Your Honor, I feel so sorry for the Halbach family, her family, everything they've been through, the pain, the hatred. Nothing can restore her, and my family, right now. What they went through and everyone's friends and the whole community made everyone suffer. As for me, I didn't kill Teresa Halbach. I'm clean from start to finish, I think later, maybe I can prove me It's innocent." At the end of the film, Steven himself began to study law, and we should really applaud his persistence. Suffering and torture cannot defeat a strong and kind person, I think.
We should reflect on this case and speak out. The greatest sadness is not the wickedness of the bad but the silence of the good, isn't it? Fortunately, this case has been widely concerned by Americans. 130,000 Americans petitioned the White House, but the White House's answer was that they were state prisoners, and at most they could release the governor. This powerless answer is enough to make people desperate. We have to place our hopes on new evidence. The good news is that hackers say they have obtained evidence from state emails that they blamed Steven. Then we will wait and see.
