The ‘Making A Murderer’ Prosecutor Says He’s Writing A Book

Kratz told Milwaukee’s ABC affiliate WBAY over the weekend that he’s doing a book on the case “because the one voice forgotten to this point is Teresa Halbach”.

Steven Avery’s new lawyer, Kathleen Zellner, has been blowing up #MakingAMurderer on Twitter since she announced her Downers Grove law firm would take on the now-infamous case.

Whether it’s Steven Avery’s letter from prison, Ken Kratz’s book or Brendan Dassey’s relocation, the attention brought from this cultural flashpoint of a series continues to make waves here in Wisconsin.

“Making a Murderer” centers around Avery and Dassey who were convicted of first degree murder for killing Halbach in 2007.

“It’s real-life so you don’t know what’s going to happen”. We tried to choose what we thought was Kratz’s strongest evidence pointing toward Steven’s guilt, the things he talked about at his press conferences, the things that were really damning toward Steven.

“If you change your mind, and want to tell your honest story someday, please contact me”, Kratz writes.

Reports have emerged suggesting that a second season of “Making A Murderer” is set to be recorded, and that it will reveal “explosive new evidence”. Avery and Dassey were convicted of murdering Halbach, whose remains were found in a burn pit on the Avery property.

In a letter tweeted by Zellner, Kratz calls on Avery to come forward and “tell the truth” in his book.

The Netflix series follows the story of Avery, who spent 18 years in prison following a wrongful conviction on sexual assault charges and was convicted of murdering Halbach two years after his exoneration.

Kratz resigned from office in 2010 after a sexting scandal in which he had written to a domestic violence victim who’s boyfriend he was prosecuting.

With public sympathy on his side, he was gearing up to sue the county and its former sheriff and district attorney for US$36 million, which would likely have bankrupted the town. If he’s still trying to push Avery around and manipulate him into telling a story that suits his needs – when Avery is already in jail – what does that say about his prosecution style?
