Making A Murderer: 6 Developments In The Avery Case Since It Debuted

3. Prosecutor Ken Kratz Hits Out At The Show For Omitting Key Evidence

Making a Murderer paints an ugly picture of former Wisconsin state prosecutor Ken Kratz, although he certainly didn€™t do himself any favours when he sent those racy text messages to a domestic abuse victim. Nevertheless, Kratz had the chance to refute some of the documentary€™s claims when People approached him for comment. He dismissed the serial as a €œconspiracy movie€ and criticised filmmakers Moira Demos and Laura Ricciardi for allegedly omitting evidence against Avery. Demos and Ricciardi responded to Kratz€™s claims in an interview with The Wrap, insisting that their aim was to include what they felt were the prosecutor€™s strongest pieces of evidence in the Halbach murder case. "The things I've heard listed as things we've left out seem much less convincing of guilt than Teresa's DNA on a bullet or her remains in his backyard," said Demos. The filmmakers also claim that Kratz had the opportunity of a bigger role in the documentary and give some first-hand testimony, but he declined the offer.
