UNDATED (WTAQ) – Teresa Halbach didn’t want to go to the Avery Auto Salvage Yard on Halloween in 2005, but Auto Trader magazine begged her to do them the favor.
That’s according to a report from People, who spoke with an unnamed friend of Halbach’s.
The article says that the 25-year-old Halbach’s photography business was becoming so successful, Halbach put in her two-week notice to quit.
But on the morning of October 31, Steven Avery allegedly called Auto Trader asking specifically for Halbach to photograph his van.
“She said she didn’t want to go,” the source told People. “Auto Trader begged her to go – to do them this one favor – do one more picture.”
That day would be the last time Teresa Halbach was seen alive.
The murder investigation led to the convictions of Avery and his nephew Brendan Dassey in 2007. Interest in the case has hit new heights, thanks to the release of the Netflix series “Making a Murderer.”
This week, Avery filed a new appeal and his ex-fiancée said he was guilty.
