New Making A Murderer episodes have been announced and here’s why

 Netflix have confirmed that producers of the Emmy-nominated hit docu-series Making a Murderer are working on new episodes.

The new episodes looks set to be a follow-up to the hugely successful series and will take fans back inside the story of convicted murderer Steven Avery, and his co-defendant, Brendan Dassey, as their respective investigative and legal teams challenge their convictions and the State fights to have the convictions and life sentences upheld. Since the show aired new evidence, testimonies and flaws in the trial have come to light including information from a juror. Earlier this year, creator Ricciardi spoke to the TODAY and revealed the massive twist that the juror believed Avery was innocent. "(The juror) told us that they believe Steven Avery was not proven guilty,'' Ricciardi said. "They believe Steven was framed by law enforcement and that he deserves a new trial, and if he receives a new trial, in their opinion it should take place far away from Wisconsin." This next chapter of the story will provide an in-depth look at the high-stakes post-conviction process, as well as, the emotional toll the process takes on all involved. The episodes will offer exclusive access to Avery’s new lawyer Kathleen Zellner and Dassey’s legal team, led by Laura Nirider and Steve Drizin, as well as intimate access to the families and characters close to the case. “We are extremely grateful for the tremendous response to, and support of, the series.  The viewers interest and attention has ensured that the story is not over, and we are fully committed to continuing to document events as they unfold” said creators, Ricciardi and Demos. There has been no announcement as to when we can expect the new episodes but while you wait you can check out upcoming BBC Three series Unsolved: The Boy Who Disappeared.
