Steven Avery, convicted for the 2005 murder of Teresa Halbach and featured in the Netflix series "Making a Murderer," is awaiting an appeals court decision on his request for a new trial. Avery's case has been transferred to Waushara County Judge Guy Dutcher, as the previous judge recused himself. Avery, along with his nephew Brendan Dassey, who are both serving life sentences, maintain their innocence. The appeals court is reviewing Avery's appeal, with no set timeline for a decision.
