GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – Making A Murderer Part 2 is once again taking much of the country by storm, but some of those involved in the case say be careful what you believe.
“Much of what you are being shown on Netflix, especially season one, just didn’t happen.”
The prosecutor for the Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey trial Ken Kratz says what you see in the documentary is not exactly what you would have seen in the courtroom.
Kratz points out some of the scenes that he was part of had an editing technique known as splicing.
“They show the questions, but then they give a different answer on there to make the witness suspicious or sketchy.”
He says having a false portrayal of events in a documentary is disturbing and says he was taken back when he found out that the documentary won an award for creative editing.
“That is just despicable what was done to the Manitowoc Law Enforcement.”
He says that is just half of his frustration, he said the other half is how people respond to him personally since he feels he was portrayed as a villain and said that hatred has gone to an extreme level.
“Why is it that they feel entitled to threaten my life, or call my wife horrible things or threaten to rape my daughter.”
He says pictures of his home with his address on the mailbox have been made public on the internet, and he is unsure what the end goal of something like that is.
“It makes you shake your head and wonder what this world is coming to.”
Kratz says while the court case has been a source of controversy, he will continue to defend his name and fight for justice.
“The truth will come out. I am going to keep pushing back. Many will not, but I am going to have to because this is left unchecked.”
