The Avery Trial: Episode 27 - Tyson: "To the Best of My Ability"

📺 Subscribe here: https://youtube.com/beachhouse34

In this episode, we wrap up the testimony of Sgt. William Tyson, the officer from Calumet county whose job it was to watch the Manitowoc officers while they searched Steven Avery's home.

The prosecution made a big deal about this bleach bottle in the bathroom but conveniently failed to mention that this is also where Steven's washer and dryer were located. They also made it wound as if Teresa's number in a notebook found in Steven's house was a piece of evidence even though two different colored inks were used. And then there's the hood latch swab which didn't happen until 5 months after the crime lab had the RAV4 in their possession.

Why?

Piece by piece, it feels less like they were uncovering the truth, and more like they were making sure Steven Avery was their guy.


Next time, Sergeant Andrew Colborn takes the stand — and his testimony could change everything.
