Michael Griesbachs INDEFENSIBLE takes on one of the most high-profile cases of our time: the Making a Murderer docudrama. In searing, bare-bones prose, Griesbach, a longtime Wisconsin prosecutor and active member of the advisory board of the Wisconsin Innocence Project, cuts through the rhetoric and prejudiced presentation of the documentary and sets the record straight. The author confirms, beyond any question whatsoever, Steve Averys guilt, refuting the biased account of so-called evidence the docudrama has, using mimicry and slight-of-the-hand editing, carefully and disingenuously spoon-fed viewers. Read this book for clear, concise, unimpeachable evidence that Steven Avery is a monster of the most despicable caliber. Trust me, you wont be signing any petitions to get this psychopath out of prison once youve closed the book! M. William Phelps, New York Times Bestselling Author & Investigative Journalist
