Was Steven Avery Framed By… a Serial Killer?! (‘Making a Murderer’)
I’m a Netflix junkie, and watched the entirety of “Making a Murderer” the week it was released.
I’m also a sucker for shit like “Forensic Files,” so “Making a Murderer” was a 10-hour long dream come true.
Having seen docs like “Capturing the Friedmans” and “Dear Zachary” (I implore you to avoid this devastating documentary that will make you feel like you’ve never felt emotions before), I’m not quick to judge, and attempt to be as impartial as the doc is supposed to be.
Those keeping tabs on the heap of escalating developments now know that filmmakers Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi are anything but impartial in their depiction of the Steven Avery case that’s now become a National phenomenon.
The full transcript of the Brendan Dassey confession changes the complexion of the interrogation, nearly flipping it on its head. And other evidence left out of the documentary all point to Avery being the actual killer.
Putting all of the pieces together, one could easily form quite a few scenarios. Could the police have framed Steven Avery unbeknownst to them that he was truly, actually the killer? Was it the ex-boyfriend that quietly vanishes from the documentary? Did Dassey commit the murders with the ex-boyfriend and frame Avery, while the police were also framing him?
It’s fucking crazy. Shit, movies aren’t even this twisted.
So, what if I told you there’s another theory, one that alleges that both Steven Avery and the police were set up? I’m not kidding, and this shit will inspire a feature film if not a dozen more.
Yahoo! shares the below video that hit YouTube in which former police sergeant and FBI cold case task force worker John Cameron thinks he knows who did it.
The video alleges that notorious convicted serial killer Edward Wayne Edwards, pictured above, is Teresa Halbach’s killer and set-up both Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, as well as the local police.
It sound fucking ridiculous, until you look at some of the “facts,” which include the following (compiled by Yahoo!):
- Several of Edward Wayne Edwards’ past victims were murdered on Halloween night. Teresa Halbach disappeared on Halloween night.
- Edwards had killed in Wisconsin before: In 1980, Edwards mudered Timothy Hack and Kelly Drew in what was later dubbed the Sweetheart Slayings.
- Edwards was living about an hour away from Steven Avery at the time of the murder.
- Avery’s new lawyer Kathleen Zellner has already freed one of the men wrongfully convicted of a crime Cameron attributes to Ed Edwards – Ryan Ferguson spent nearly 10 years in jail for the death of Columbia Daily Tribune sports editor Kent Heith. That murder went down on Halloween night.
- Edwards has a history of showing up at funerals and trials of his victims. Cameron contends he’s been caught on camera doing this a few times, appearing in the background of a documentary on the West Memphis Three. As for the Halbach case, take a look at someone Cameron noticed in episode six of Making A Murderer:
The photo is moderately convincing, but the fact that Edwards likes to “cameo” in his productions makes you raise an eyebrow, and the additional fact that Edwards murdered on Halloween adds real weight to this theory, not to mention the locations of the murder and knowledge that Edwards lives only an hour from the Avery residence.
Oh, and it gets even more insane. Like, off-the-rails bonkers.
Officially, Edwards has been convicted of five deaths from 1977 to 1996, including the murder of his adopted son for insurance money, explains Yahoo who adds that “there’s a growing body of investigators that believe he is responsible for some of the biggest unsolved murder cases in American history, including the Zodiac killings, the West Memphis Three, Chandra Levy, and Jon Benet Ramsey.”
It’s all pretty fucked up, and the more people dig the more crazy information comes up. They say the simplest explanation is usually the correct one, but could this be the exception to the rule? Could the filmmakers behind “Making a Murderer” have stumbled upon the greatest set up of all-time? With Edwards now in a coffin, we may never know, but for now you can really get into the nitty gritty over at Yahoo! after you’ve watched the below video.

Halloween Horror Nights 2026 Brings ‘Fortnite’ to Life with New ‘Fortnitemares’ Scare Zone
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
