>On March 23, 1981 he was convicted on two counts of burglary and sentenced to two years in prison. The sentence was stayed, and instead he was ordered to spend 10 months in the Manitowoc County jail, pay $1,399.85 in restitution, and placed on five-year's probation.<
After spending 10 months in jail Steven Avery learned nothing from this but instead he did this next:
>Five months later Avery was charged with cruelty to animals for dousing a cat with gasoline and oil, throwing it in a bonfire, and watching it die. <
He spent 9 months in prison for that. Did he learn his lesson now? I can't believe that after spending 10 months in jail and then another 9 months in prison for torturing a cat and watching it die he did this:
>In January 1985 Avery was charged with endangering safety and felon gun possession when he ran the wife of a part-time Manitowoc County sheriff off the road and pointed a rifle at her. When Avery spotted the woman's infant daughter in the backseat, he backed off. He was later sentenced to six years in prison for this crime.<
But having what amounts to slaps on the wrist should one be surprised that he progressed to rape and murder? Avery has already shown, and it has been proven with the above facts, that he has a propensity to commit crime, do time and not learn anything from it. Our prisons are full of people who are repeat offenders. But lets not confuse anyone with the facts.
Oh and don't forget this juicy little tidbit. Avery is accused of another rape. The victim is a young girl and charges most likely won't be filed unless Avery is not convicted of this crime. The affidavit alleges that Steven confessed to the rape of this girl to fiancee. Unless she is lying too just to get back at poor Steven. Gee, he sure has a lot of people out to get him doesn't he?
In case you missed this in your "studies" of the case.

I guess just about everybody is out to frame poor Steven Avery
And I posted a link to an article previously that included this little tidbit. Just in case you missed it in your studies of the case:
"Among other documents filed in support of his motion, Kratz submitted the transcript of a 1993 hearing before Manitowoc County Circuit Judge Fred Hazelwood that said Avery, while in prison, threatened to mutilate and kill his former wife, Lori Mathieson.
That threat included drawings, and Hazelwood also discussed a "bizarre incident" with "sexual overtones" in which Avery admitted ramming his cousin's car and forcing her off the road.
Judge Hazelwood had this to say about Steven Avery:
"Hazelwood terminated Avery's contact with his children, saying "he has tremendous needs. He has huge anger. He has real potential to harm people, and he's not dealt with any of that."
And this which was not reported by just one prisoner but several:
"Kratz also included in Wednesday's filings statements from prisoners who served time with Avery at Green Bay Correctional Institution. They said Avery talked about and showed them diagrams of a torture chamber he planned to build when he was released"

Also since Avery was a convicted felon he was not allowed to own firearms yet more than one was confiscated from his residence. Guess he wasn't too smart huh?
Steven Avery called the magazine and asked specifically for Teresa Halbach. He also gave a false name using his sister-in-law's name. Teresa had complained about going out there in the past. She complained about him coming to answer the door dressed only in a towel. The van being photographed belonged to Steven Avery.
It is alleged that Steven Avery called the magazine that morning using a name other than his own to request Teresa come out to photograph a van he had for sale. I believe this was a school day and Brendan was in school that day. I remember reading an article with an interview with a teacher of his who had picked him up that morning. He was at school all day and went over to Steven's trailer after the bus dropped him off. So what was Teresa doing all that time? Shooting the breeze with Steven waiting for Brendan to come home? Brendan didn't get off the school bus until 3:45 pm. it's in the affidavit. Since Avery admits that Halbach was at his home between 2 & 3 pm and he was there too how in the heck did Brendan murder and rape her without his uncle being involved? She was still there at 3:45? Maybe she was one of Brendan's friends and waiting for him to come home huh?
We now know that Brendan has told LE that both he and his uncle planned the murder/rape together and pre-selected Theresa Halbach to be the victim.

This is what is called an "educated opinion" about a case including facts and links to back them up. Theories are all well and good while sitting around the campfire telling stories but mean very little, except to you of course, unless there is some logical thinking or reasoning behind them.
You are entitled to your own theories but I can't for the life of me figure out why you posted such a weak theory here on WS if you didn't want opinions about it or criticism.
It seems to me that you have some kind of personal reason why you would want to throw all reason out of the window and choose to believe such a far-fetched theory. Because it certainly isn't based on any facts we know of so far in the case.
Avery is facing murder/rape/kidnapping charges. A long long time behind bars most likely w/o parole. If he didn't commit this crime but helped his nephew cover it up he surely didn't say so. While aiding and abetting his nephew in this crime, multilating a corpse etc. is serious and he would do prison time it still would not be as bad as actually committing the rape and murder. But he hasn't said that. He has denied everything. Why keep Brendan's role quiet? Oh yeah, he's one of those big fluffy cuddly teddy bear types of uncles. That's why the whole family admitted they were afraid of him.
