Candace Owens will lay bare the “moral bankruptcy” behind Netflix’s “Making a Murderer,” presenting shocking new facts and interviews in “Convicting a Murderer,” an upcoming docuseries recently acquired by DailyWire+.
The upcoming 10-episode series — some six years in the making — examines what was left out of the 2015 Netflix documentary, and features exclusive interviews with subjects not included in the Netflix show, including law enforcement officers, family members, and fans-turned-investigators whose lives have been profoundly impacted by the case.
Netflix’s Making A Murderer portrayed Steven Avery as an innocent victim of corrupt law enforcement, but @RealCandaceO will reveal astonishing evidence that Netflix omitted.

“I have an interest in the media’s ability to transform villains into heroes via selective reporting,” Owens said of the project. “An argument can be made that Netflix made millions by transforming an irrevocably evil man, Steven Avery, into a sympathetic character. ‘Making a Murderer’ was a docuseries that earned awards and worldwide applause due to the moral bankruptcy of two filmmakers that were willing to murky the memory and horrific murder of Teresa Halbach — the actual victim of this tragic story.”

“Making a Murderer” premiered on Netflix in 2015, and followed the case of Steven Avery, who was convicted for the murder of photographer Teresa Halbach. Despite the series receiving critical praise and multiple awards, the docuseries has been heavily criticized for leaving out critical pieces of evidence.
Director Shawn Rech noted that few companies “have the courage to air this type of project, which closely examines the work of a major player in the entertainment industry.”
“This re-examination of the facts surrounding the case offers the opportunity for new public discourse and hopefully some closure for the victim’s family,” Rech added.
This acquisition is the largest yet for DailyWire+, and the docuseries will premiere sometime in the summer of 2023.
