Making a Murderer will return for a second season on Netflix, and will address these new developments in the Steven Avery case.
Dassey and his uncle Steven Avery were convicted in connection with the 2005 murder of Teresa Halbach, a case chronicled in the Netflix true-crime documentary series Making a Murderer.
Brendan Dassey will be released from prison following a judge’s order on Monday, according to NBC affiliate TMJ4.
Dassey’s murder conviction was overturned in August; prosecutors plan to retry him, but Monday’s ruling means Dassey can go free pending the state’s appeal.
