Cosmopolitan, July 29, 2021: There's been a big development in court for Making A Murderer's Steven Avery
“There's been a major development in the appeal of Steven Avery, the subject of hit Netflix true crime series Making A Murderer who's currently serving a life sentence for the murder of a woman in 2005.
Steven is serving his prison sentence along with his nephew Brendan Dassey, and has always maintained his innocence in the 2005 killing of Teresa Halbach, a freelance photographer, in Manitowoc County Wisconsin.
This week, there's been an update in Steven and his legal team's latest attempt to overturn his conviction, as the Wisconsin Court of Appeals rejected their bid for an appeal, ruling there is 'insufficient' evidence to justify a new trial.”
