Episode 8 of Candace Owens’ “Convicting a Murderer” revealed that a cadaver dog found powerful evidence pointing to Steven Avery’s guilt in the murder of Teresa Halbach. 

The episode, titled “Bones,” shows that the filmmakers of the Netflix series “Making a Murderer” left out that a cadaver dog used by investigators found Halbach’s jean rivets in Avery’s burn pit — a key piece of evidence used by the prosecution. 

“It’s worth reminding that Brendan Dassey had confessed to burning Teresa Halbach’s clothing, but you don’t see anything about her clothing or the jean rivets in ‘Making a Murderer,’” Owens says. “And it’s not the only detail that they left out.”

The episode, which was released on DailyWire+ on Thursday, also dives into how Avery changed his story about the burn pit multiple times when being questioned by police. The convicted murderer initially told investigators that he didn’t have a fire on October 31, 2005,  the day Halbach went missing. He later changed his story and admitted he did have a fire on the 31st but added that his nephew Brendan Dassey was with him. 

“Why didn’t Steven tell investigators about Brendan being with him that night originally?” Owens asks in the episode. “Because Brendan should have been his alibi. Wouldn’t Steven want them to go talk to Brendan so he could confirm everything that Steven said happened that night? If nothing happened, that is, why not say that right away?” 

The episode then goes into detail about the bone and tooth fragments found in Avery’s burn pit and a nearby burn barrel. 

“Convicting a Murderer” pulls back the curtain on what viewers missed in “Making a Murderer.” The 10-episode series contains exclusive interviews with subjects not included in the Netflix show, including law enforcement officers, family members, and fans-turned-investigators whose lives have been profoundly impacted by the case.

The Daily Wire series hit the #1 spot on Rotten Tomatoes’ “Best Documentary TV Shows” list last month, where it sat above FX’s “Welcome to Wrexham” and Apple TV’s “The Super Models” for over a week.

Episode 9, the second-to-last episode in the series, will be released on DailyWire+ next Thursday. The episode, “Manipulating Brendan,” reveals chilling prison calls from Brendan Dassey that shed light on his troubling relationship with Steven Avery, providing a deeper understanding of his involvement in the murder. 

“I don’t think I’ll ever forget him describing his uncle wanting him to ‘get some’ and him admitting that he did this. What was the motive of a 16-year-old kid? It was motive that he wanted to know what it felt like,” Owens says.

If you missed the first seven episodes of “Convicting a Murderer,” you can still catch up here and become a member to follow the rest of the series. The last two episodes will debut next Thursday and on October 26 on DailyWire+.

A lecturer at Stanford University has been suspended after reportedly singling out Jewish students in his class, downplaying the Holocaust, and defending Hamas after the terrorist attack on Israel. 

The lecturer’s identity has been kept anonymous by Stanford, but according to Campus Reform and The Daily Mail, students identified him as 46-year-old Ameer Hasan Loggins. Loggins was close to former NFL quarterback and social justice activist Colin Kaepernick and helped radicalize Kaepernick. Earlier this week, students said Loggins singled out Jewish students in his class and told them to grab their belongings and stand in a corner, saying, “This is what Israel does to the Palestinians,” The Forward reported.  

“He asked how many Jews died in the Holocaust,” and when students said 6 million, “he said, ‘Yes. Only 6 million,’” Nourya Cohen, who spoke with Jewish students in the class, told The San Francisco Chronicle. Loggins reportedly proceeded to downplay the Holocaust by comparing it to European colonization, which he said killed more people than the Holocaust. 

Cohen, a senior at Stanford and the co-president of Stanford’s Israeli Student Association, said Loggins’ reported comments and actions in the classroom directed toward Jewish students make her concerned for Jewish students following the attack on Israel last weekend.

“I feel absolutely dehumanized that someone in charge of students and developing minds could possibly try and justify the massacre of my people,” said Cohen. “It’s like I’m reliving the justification of Nazis 80 years ago on today’s college campus.”

Stanford confirmed on Wednesday that it had received a report about a “non-faculty instructor” who “called out individual students in class based on their backgrounds and identities.” The university is conducting an internal investigation into the incident. 

“The instructor in this course is not currently teaching while the university works to ascertain the facts of the situation,” Stanford said in its statement. 

Loggins developed a relationship with Kaepernick as the quarterback became more influential in the Black Lives Matter movement, The New York Times reported in a piece it published in 2017 titled “The Awakening of Colin Kaepernick.”

Loggins, who was then teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, recommended race-centered social justice books to Kaepernick, and eventually, “engaged in lengthy conversations until the quarterback asked if he could sit in on the professor’s upcoming summer class,” according to the Times. 

The lecturer recommended books such as “Black Feminist Thought: Knowledge, Consciousness, and the Politics of Empowerment,” by Patricia Hill Collins; “Black Looks: Race and Representation,” by Bell Hooks; and “The Mis-Education of the Negro,” by Carter G. Woodson.

“People that trace our connection to U.C. Berkeley assume he became politicized in my class,” Loggins wrote. “But Colin came in aware, focused, well-read and eager to learn. His decision was made on his own — from the heart. He came to me intellectually curious. The questions he asked me regarding my research, the lectures he attended, he was a sponge.”
