    Edit: Nevermind, forgot he settled for under a million. Thought he got a greater fraction of his possible 36 million.
    To be fair I guess Strang and Buting brought up alternate suspects and some other avenues like the cell phone logs but the judge wouldn't allow for it iirc.

    Avery had to settle for something like $450,000 and it went to Strang and Buting.

    I think Zellner will get everything she requests in her motion save for fingerprints of Lenk and Colburn which is unfortunate because if I thought they were guilty of framing Avery previously the fact they had the Rav4 in their possession 2 days prior to it being found in Avery's lot really seals the deal for me. I don't see how their fingerprints can be obtained with out a court order, and maybe that will come down the pike if she finds the blood in the car is from 1985, etc

    "I think it's ****ing stock. What--? Which part of that is unclear to you? I think it sounds stock to my ears. I mean, do you want me to write it down?" Tap Pt. 2

    Who???! So What!!!! Big Deal!!!!

      Yes the judge said unless they had solid evidence of other possible scenarios they could not present alternate theories. An interesting decision on its own considering the previous BS conviction and the obvious conflict of interest that Manitowoc had in the case. The defense was allowed to bring in the cell phone and question the police on the evidence but not make any accusations.

      It wont take very much evidence for a federal judge to do for Avery what they did for Dassey. The amount of possible misconduct i this case is rather staggering. If you didnt know better you would think he was black (settle down I am joking!)

          I just think the longer they prolong justice and drag this out the worse it will be for them. The AG will have to be fired along with some people in the crime lab, state investigators and then there's the whole malfeasance of the manitowoc sheriff's, past deputies and current and how does one quantify in dollars taking 10 years from the kid and about 1/2 of Avery's life?

          This entire saga reminds me Kafka's The Trial.

            They are already facing a litany of lawsuits on Dassey alone, if Avery ever gets cleared the amount of money they will owe him and his family will not only bankrupt that county but the state will feel the pinch too.

            The AG screwed this up royally and continues to do so...

              For that matter, aren't the LEOs going to start facing charges?

              This is going to last the rest of our lives, isn't it...?

              But more importantly, what the hell is going on with the Comments to that story?

                His testimony was key in the sense he was coerced into admitting to a murder. They then went on to convict Dassey and Avery of murdering Halbach in two completely different manners.

                  Yep. They browbeat a kid with mental deficiencies into admitting to a crime...and none of the physical evidence matched what he said they did.

                    Agreed on all points.

                    I just hope when this is over that beyond justice for Avery/Dassey, and closure for the Halbach's, we see some real changes in this state and across the country. A conversation about justice is a great idea but we also need changes/action.

                        With the money they'll be awarded they will be able to afford to import a few hundred junk cars and endless amounts of Schlitz to the island they buy, so it feels just like home.
