Defending Jacob Recap

Ok so Defending Jacob centers around the Barbers, a family of three made up of Andy played by Chris Evans, Laurie played by Michelle Dockery and Jacob played by Jaeden Martell.

Jacob is embroiled in a murder trial after a boy who bullied him is found dead and the story very much focuses on his parents struggling over whether he comitted the crime or not.

Now from the off I will say that I do think that Jacob did it and though the show is deliberately ambiguous there are several clues as to why this is the case. Firstly is Jacob's attitude in general. Throughout the show he is portrayed as someone that is a rule breaker, someone that isn't very thoughtful and someone that will often defy common sense in order to be seen in a certain way.

He deliberately returns to social media after being told not to, post sick things on it and even writes a story after the murder that makes OJ's Simpsons 'If I Did It' look like a shining example of what to do after becoming a suspect. Jacob was apparently the first one that discovered Ben's body and he tried to cover this up by not reporting it so that he wouldn't get in trouble. I believe that he wasn't aware of the forensics and that this was a lie. Though there is another suspect, it does seem strange that he was the first on the scene if he had nothing to do with it.

In addition to this Andy finds a knife that may or may not have been used as the murder weapon. Whilst we learn that this is a common knife, it does add a lot of weight when tied in with all of the above as there was no real need for it's inclusion in the show if it wasn't to point to one thing.

As the trial begins it seems like Jacob is banged to rights. The longer things go on the longer that suspicion builds in Lauries mind but juxtaposing this, Andy believes his son completely.

Even as the boy was growing up he refused to accept things for how they were and always tried to turn it so that there was no way his son or family were capable of any wrong doing. This ties into our view of the ending and it's also laced throughout Andy's childhood. We learn that his father was a very sick man and thus he has tried to find the good in others rather than the bad.

He defends his son till the end but it looks like things are only going to go one way.

That is a guilty verdict.

However after a pedophile name Leonard Patz confesses to killing Ben before seemingly committing suicide, Jacob is exonerated.

Though there is a lot of evidence that points towards Leonard actually being behind it, including incriminating photographs on his phone, we actually learn that Andy's father was behind his death. Billy Barber played by JK Simmons had used an ally to force the confession and thus it's legitimacy is unable to be determined.
