Netflix series The Staircase follows the murder trial of American, Micheal Peterson, a man accused of beating his wife to death but who claims she fell down the stairs. If you liked Making a Murderer or American Crime Story (the dramatisation of the OJ Simpson trial) the you will find The Staircase fascinating. While slow to start the series is well worth your time. The Staircase makes viewer question what they know about the criminal justice system and what really is the truth.
May you come to your own conclusions about whether or not Micheal Peterson is guilty for the death of his wife. Because I sure can’t.
