Why Did Lester Frame His Nephew?

Why Did Lester Frame His Nephew? - 2 Women Sitting on Brown Wooden Chair

Why did Lester frame his nephew in Fargo? As if it wasn't sociopathic enough to frame his brother. I wonder why it was necessary to go to the extra trouble to go all the way upstairs and plant something incriminating in the kid's backpack.



Best Answer

I don't think he was actually framing his nephew as much as trying to give the police a reason to go to his brother's house. Lester probably counted on the blame falling solely on his brother once the police discovered the illegal firearm and the planted evidence.
