It's been one of the oddest turns yet in the Steven Avery saga.

The centre of Netflix's Making A Murderer made a sensational claim earlier in the week that Dean Strang and Jerry Buting, the two attorneys who represented Avery during his trial, were guilty of 'wrongdoing' and that the state should take their licences away.

In a handwritten note, Avery repeatedly slammed Buting and Strang and claimed that they didn't investigate his case properly, saying that "they would have the suspect if they did there job!!!" (sic).

However, Jerry Buting has responded to Avery's claims with the level-headed nature you'd expect. In a tweet written on late Thursday night, Buting said that people shouldn't blame Avery for his "his misdirected frustration. In his spot we'd all be unhappy."

Buting went on, saying that he and Strang both continued to support Avery's case for justice. As it stands, Kathleen Zellner - Avery's current attorney - is promising "a tsunami" of evidence that will clear her client. However, Zellner and her team have filed a request for a 90-day extension so as to properly file the paperwork and prepare a brief for Avery.

 

Netflix have already stated that they've begun work on a second season of Making A Murderer and, undoubtedly, Avery's claims against Buting and Strang will be a part of it.
