Similar to its first run, Making a Murderer Part 2 will span 10 episodes and focus on Avery and Dassey’s convictions as they maintain their innocence in the murder of Teresa Halbach.

In this chapter of the story, though, the focus will be aimed at the post-conviction process, featuring interviews with Avery’s and Dassey’s lawyers Kathleen Zellner, Laura Nirider, and Steven Drizin.

“Steven and Brendan, their families and their legal and investigative teams have once again graciously granted us access, giving us a window into the complex web of American criminal justice,” said executive producers, writers and directors Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos in a statement.
