Since the release of Making a Murderer, the shamed district attorney responsible for putting Steven Avery behind bars, Ken Kratz, has had a lot to say to the media.

On several occasions, he has asserted evidence was left out of the Netflix documentary (read about all the evidence left out) while also admitting he was ‘a d*ck’ during the Teresa Halbach trial.

Now, in what many believe to be a way of ‘cashing in’ on his new found fame, Kratz has started writing a book based on the case.

He told Action 2 News he is “finally grateful to tell the whole story” and that he was the “one voice forgotten to this point is Teresa Halbach.”

Of course, if you’ve finished watching the documentary *spoilers*¹ you’ll remember that Kratz had to resign as Calumet County district attorney after being involved with a scandal in which he allegedly sent ‘sexually-charged’ texts to a domestic abuse victim he was representing.

Soon after Making a Murderer’s release, Kratz’s law firm was sent thousands of messages via its Yelp page. It should also be noted that he declined to be interviewed for the 10-episode drama, and sent the filmmakers a subpoena.

Meanwhile, with regards the Steven Avery case, the convicted man’s new defence lawyer took to Twitter to ‘destroy’ the prosecution's case. Catch up with all the latest here.
