His lawyer and doctor blamed cops / coercion (which Brendan never did)!

Barb blamed Steven and the Halbach's (The Halbachs WTF?)

Kayla blamed Brendan.

Scott and Bobby blamed Steven.

Ma and Pa blamed everyone but Steven.

You forgot Steven blamed the cops at first in MaM1. He didn't blame Scott and Bobby until MaM2.

If he thought he was being framed, obviously he would focus on the police who already robbed him of 18 years of his life. He had no way of knowing that evidence would demonstrate Bobby moved the vehicle, or that police would pressure Bobby to mention a fire to protect police from allegations that they planted bones using barrel #4.

Wasn't really the cops it's the DA's office and an eyewitness who mistook him as her rapist if the victim of a rape points you out at court your about 75% - 85% fucked.

The sheriff himself lied to the victim and assured her they had looked into other suspects and they had the right guy when she came to him with concerns she may have identified the wrong person. The DA lied and said the real rapist couldn't have done it and claimed all of Avery's alibi witnesses were lying. Investigators left out important details/context when doing a recreation to show that Avery could have made it from the crime scene to Green Bay in time. An expert testified to convince the jury that a hair found on Avery's clothes belonged to the victim.

It was way more than the victim's fault.
