Convicting a Murderer
2023 American documentary series
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Convicting a Murderer is an American true crime documentary series narrated and hosted by Candace Owens for The Daily Wire. The show is a rebuttal to the 2015–2018 Netflix documentary series Making a Murderer,[2] which argued for the innocence of Steven Avery, a man convicted of sexual assault and later freed only to be charged with and convicted of the 2005 murder of Teresa Halbach. While Making a Murderer sought to build a case for Avery's innocence in the 2005 case, Convicting a Murderer argues that Avery is in fact guilty, and that Netflix irresponsibly attempted to portray him as innocent for media attention.
