Are you watching The Staircase on HBO Max?

Not really, same case and characters, different view and theories. And very well made and entertaining. It’s funny how it includes the crazy documentary filmmakers living in America filming this all. What kind of personality going through the trauma of solo parenting, a dead spouse and a trial would want a film crew following hem around 24/7 for multiple years!?!?!? Who even funded that? Did they pay the Peterson family too, during filming or royalties later??

All good questions.

That video of Michael on the day that he made the Alford plea, when is asked point blank if he killed her and he says that Kathleen's death was an accident, are we supposed to take away from that that he's admitting guilt?

Also, I really really hope that the series over-dramatized how much Sophie idolized Michael b/c man... that was painful to watch.

The way Jean interviews him that final time and Michael either confesses to a previous lie OR demonstrates a lie based in redefining a common word totally inaccurately, leads one to know that when the next question of killing Kathleen’s in responded with “ it’s an accident”, the viewer knows that in Michael’s psychotic mind it was actually “it was an accident how I actually killed her.” When talking to such a sociopath narcissist they love to argue and win with semantics and riddles. You basically can’t talk with them, as everyone close to him found out. He doesn’t talk about things, he deflects or gets angry and stonewalls off.

I agree that I picked up on his partial lies on a few occassions.

I think he "accidentally" got her killed by having a lover on the property who later killed her. So it was his fault either way.

I want to know whose DNA was on the used condom they found upstairs.

Exactly.

To someone on the spectrum or a sociopath, the response to Did you kill her?: “It was an accident”, is indeed accurate.

mP didn’t wake up planning to fly into a rage and kill his wife, but he accidentally did just that. So literally, and black and white, it was indeed an accident to him folks…

But if it was such an accident then why was it step by step what he did to Liz? I think he “knew” a way to kill a woman and get out of it. Him thinking it’s been this many years and another country, the coast is clear. She was very drunk and on drugs so I truly believe he plotted it.

It was not step by step "what he did to Liz." The earlier death of a woman in his community on a staircase simply did not implicate him. There are many coincidences in criminal law. A reasonable judge keeps such evidence out of a criminal trial because juries -- like you -- seize on coincidence as pattern and motive when there is no evidence of such.

No autopsy done yet Michael Peterson conned the German coroner to put down aneurysm? Body later extracted and that was ruled out entirely.

Either way the guy was a selfish sociopath liar with a pattern of fatal “accidents” in his wake.
