Steven Avery: Wisconsin: (Making a Murderer); Bulletin; Major Development; Avery will not get a new trial, judge rules, USA Today reports; (Post Crescent): Reporter Alison Dirr. October 3, 2017. (Story to be updated)..."In early June, Avery's attorney, Kathleen Zellner, filed a motion seeking a new trial. She claimed his conviction in the 2005 murder was based on planted evidence and false testimony.".



"A judge on Tuesday denied a motion for a new trial in the case of Steven Avery, who was convicted in the 2005 murder of Teresa Halbach.  Sheboygan County Judge Angela Sutkiewicz, who is overseeing the case, filed the six-page written decision in Manitowoc County court.  In early June, Avery's attorney, Kathleen Zellner, filed a motion seeking a new trial. She claimed his conviction in the 2005 murder was based on planted evidence and false testimony. Avery and his nephew, Brendan Dassey, were convicted in Halbach's murder. The men have maintained their innocence, and Dassey’s case was heard last week by the full U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. The cases against the two men were featured in the 2015 Neflix docu-series "Making a Murderer" and have since gained international attention.  This story will be updated.

About Me

My photo
Harold Levy
Two Blogs Now: The Charles Smith Blog; The Selfless Warriors Blog: I created the Charles Smith Blog in 2007 after I retired from The Toronto Star to permit me to keep digging into the story of the flawed pathologist and the harm he had done to so many innocent parents and caregivers, and to Ontario’s criminal justice system. Since then it has taken new directions, including examinations of other flawed pathologists, flawed pathology, and flawed science and technology which has marred the quality of justice in courtrooms around the world. The heart of the Blog is my approach to following cases which raise issues in all of these areas - especially those involving the death penalty. I have dedicated 'The Selfless Warrior Blog’ (soon to appear) to those exceptional individuals who have been ripped out of their ordinary lives by their inability to stand by in the face of a glaring miscarriage of justice. They are my ’Selfless Warriors.’ Enjoy!
