MANITOWOC, WI (WTAQ) – An online petition is calling for Netflix to scrap its ‘Making a Murderer’ series.
Change.org wants season one to be removed from the online streaming service and season two to be canceled.
The petition cites the recent wave of sexual assault allegations across the country, noting that both of the series’ main subjects are convicted sex offenders.
Making a Murderer casts doubt on the convictions of Steven Avery and his nephew Brendan Dassey in the 2005 death of Teresa Halbach.
Netflix recently fired House of Cards actor Kevin Spacey and canceled comedian Louis CK’s special after they were accused of sexual misconduct.
