Description:Steven Avery is a convicted murderer from Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, who was convicted of rape and attempted murder in 1985, at the age of 22, and served 18 years of a 32-year sentence before DNA testing exonerated him. After his release from prison in 2003, Avery filed a $36-million civil lawsuit against Manitowoc County, its sheriff, and its district attorney. In November 2005, while his civil suit was pending, he was charged and later convicted of the murder of a Wisconsin photographer and sentenced to life imprisonment without possibility of parole. Although the conviction was upheld by higher courts, a new series of appeal motions was filed in January 2016. Avery's 2003 exoneration prompted widespread discussion of Wisconsin's criminal justice system. The Criminal Justice Reform Bill, enacted into law in 2005, implemented reforms aimed at preventing future wrongful convictions. The 2007 murder trial and its associated issues are the focus of the Netflix original documentary series Making a Murderer, released in December 2015. Also covered in the series is the arrest and prosecution of his young nephew, Brendan Dassey, convicted in 2007 as an accessory. In August 2016, a federal judge overturned Dassey's conviction on the grounds that his confession had been unconstitutionally coerced.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
