Making A Murderer Part 2 Is Finally Available To Binge-Watch On Netflix

After what feels like an eternity of waiting for fans, Making A Murderer Part 2 has finally dropped on Netflix.

There are now 10 episodes of the true crime original to binge-watch on the trials and tribulations of Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, who stand accused of murdering Theresa Halbach in 2005.

It has been a long three years since part one. Netflix's original series of Making A Murderer had its subscribers gripped over the case from the get-go, leaving viewers tossing and turning at night over whether Steven and his nephew Brendan were guilty of the charges for which they were imprisoned.

Naturally, people are putting their social lives on hold so they can watch the 10 episodes in one following the popularity of the previous season.

And in part two, filmmakers Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos provide viewers with 'an in-depth look at the high-stakes post-conviction process, exploring the emotional toll the process takes on all involved'.

The second season centres primarily on Avery's post-conviction lawyer, Kathleen Zellner, trying to win his case.

Netflix unveiled the official trailer for the series earlier this month, in which the lawyer could be heard telling the cameras she had uncovered unexpected evidence along the way, also revealing a potentially huge hole in the original trial.

"The prosecution's case was Teresa never left the property, but the last call pings off a cellphone tower miles away from the Avery property," Kathleen explained in the preview.

Making a Murderer Part 2 looks at the efforts of Dassey's lawyers, who are trying to prove that his confession was 'involuntary'.

Dassey, who has learning difficulties, was convicted in connection to the murder based primarily on a confession he made while under interrogation, and was sentenced to life in prison along with his uncle.

Avery was previously imprisoned for 18 years over a wrongful sexual assault and attempted murder conviction, only to be exonerated by DNA evidence in 2003.

He had just filed a civil lawsuit against Mantiwoc County for £27.3 million over the conviction when he was arrested over Teresa's murder.

Avery's defence lawyers argued that the prosecution's evidence was 'inconsistent', and claimed they were attempting to 'frame' him in retaliation to the lawsuit.
