Steven Avery’s new lawyer says there is a third suspect that needs to be questioned in the case against him.
Avery’s lawyer filed a new motion yesterday. The argument is that investigators didn’t fully look at other suspects while investigating Avery for the 2005 murder of Theresa Halbach. The motion says Avery doesn’t have to prove that someone else committed the crime, but does need to prove that he deserves a new trial. Avery is serving a life sentence for Halbach’s murder. His last appeal for a new trial was denied by the Wisconsin Supreme Court back in November.
