Netflix is returning to the scene of the crime: Part 2 of the documentary series Making a Murderer will debut on Friday, Oct. 19.
In the 10 new episodes, filmmakers Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos have exclusive access to Steven Avery and his co-defendant/nephew Brendan Dassey, as well as their families and legal teams, during the post-conviction process.
“Building on Part 1, which documented the experience of the accused, in Part 2 we have chronicled the experience of the convicted and imprisoned, two men each serving life sentences for crimes they maintain they did not commit,” Ricciardi and Dassey statement in a statement. “We are thrilled to be able to share this new phase of the journey with viewers.”
