Upon its release in 2015, Making a Murderer was criticised for its one-sided approach to the first-degree murder case of Teresa Halbach believing Avery - who was eventually found guilty of the crime - to have been framed by Manitowoc County Police after being wrongly imprisoned for 18 years. According to /Film, Convicting a Murderer will have “unprecedented access” to figures seen in the Netflix series including District Attorney Ken Kratz, Lead Investigator Tom Fassbender as well as others. We’ll present all of the evidence in the Avery case from the perspective of both the prosecution and the defense and see if viewers feel the same way they did two years ago following the first season of Making A Murderer.” Avery's nephew, Brendan Dassey, was also imprisoned as an accomplice to the crime despite recanting his earlier confession.
