10 Netflix Documentary Series EVERYONE Should Binge
8. The Staircase
Making A Murder follows the story of an innocent man. Jean-Xavier de Lestrade's series chronicles one of a man who may or may not be.
In the most coincidental and suspicious of circumstances, Michael Peterson's wife, Kathleen, and family friend, Elizabeth Ratliff, are found dead at the bottom of staircases with blunt force trauma to head, 18 years apart.
Spread out over 13 episodes and spanning 14 years, The Staircase particularly documents the trial and conviction regarding Kathleen Peterson's death. Michael's freedom is placed in the capable hands of his attorney, David Rudolf.
This French, English speaking piece has plenty of plot twists, creating controversy and a fair share of theories in the process. The Staircase is a 'hoot' and justifying of a binge-watch.
