'Making a Murderer' News: Ken Kratz Claims Series Doesn't Tell Whole Story Of 'What Actually Happened'
Ken Kratz, the Wisconsin state prosecutor against native Steven Avery, is really not happy with Netflix's Making a Murderer.
Anonymous Looking To Prove 'Making a Murderer' Subject's Innocence?
Kratz is claiming that Making a Murderer, the docu-series that is continuing to gain more buzz and attention since its Dec. 18 Netflix debut, has left out some important details. The series, which tells the story of Avery's alleged criminal behavior, subsequent imprisonment and seemingly corrupt system that's been against him for decades, has really captured the attention of many across the nation.
But Kratz thinks the whole story has not been told. The prosecutor communicated with People this week about Making a Murderer not telling every side of the issue.

"You don't want to muddy up a perfectly good conspiracy movie with what actually happened," Kratz told People, "and certainly not provide the audience with the evidence the jury considered to reject that claim."
He went into some details about photographer Teresa Halbach's murder case, saying Halbach had visited Avery's property back in 2005 for an AutoTrader magazine photo shoot, only to find Avery "just wearing a towel."
Kratz added, "She was creeped out [by him]," noting, "She [went to her employer and] said she would not go back because she was scared of him."
Also, Kratz alleged that Avery "told another inmate of his intent to build a 'torture chamber' so he could rape, torture and kill young women when he was released. He even drew a diagram."
He said that Avery had called AutoTrader magazine to get them to send Halbach back to him - on the same day she was murdered.
Kratz said he believes that Avery had planned the Halbach murder ahead of time. "[Avery] asked for that same girl to be sent. He was ready for her."
It remains to be seen if Making a Murderer creators Laura Ricciard and Moira Demos will respond to Kratz's claims.
