One half of the most popular criminal defense team of all time, Jerry Buting, is releasing a book about the American Criminal Justice system.
Buting, who rose to fame after the release of the Netflix series alongside his former co-council Dean Strang, says that the book will partly delve into Steven Avery's case but will focus more on attacking dysfunction within the criminal-justice system on a larger scale.
Excited to do book. Lots to say about who I am & why I'm crim def atty. Love my career, every day. Avery only one of many interesting cases

Will discuss how same flaws seen in MaM have been encountered frequently in my career. It's time to change. https://t.co/S2GkRMdAwh via WBAY

Buting was quick to note that his book is not a response to former state prosecutor Ken Kratz' publishing efforts. In an interview with Action 2 News, Buting said that his book will draw on a whole host of experiences from his 35 year career.
"I think I have a lot to say that transcends the Avery case," he explained, since "issues that came up in the Steven Avery trial that a lot of people think are unique to that case … are far from unique and happen all too often."
Expect Jerry's book to arrive sometime in 2017.
