They left the dried blood on the staircase?


This is one thing I don't get. During the documentary the blood is never cleaned. So the whole family lived for years with it and saw it whenever they went upstairs? That seems nuts.

Yeah, I noticed it too. My guess they wanted to leave it there for future reference when checking the evidence and analyzing blood spatter.

But still if that was the case how were they able to stay living there, I think I would have moved somewhere temporarily until the trial was over.

I thought that was very weird too. Once it had been photographed and sampled by Forensics, why didn't Forensics simply scrape off all the blood and store it as evidence? Then the family (or rather the head of the house, Peterson) can clean off all the blood. That he didn't mind seeing it for weeks and months, is very weird.
