'Making A Murderer': Netflix announces release date for Season 2

After Part 1 took us on an unusual yet believable ride about everything that is corrupted when it comes to the law, Part 2 will take us deeper into why all of that happened.

‎Laura Ricciardi‎'s 'Making a Murderer' is returning for a second season, and Netflix has already announced the date of the premiere on October 19. In this docuseries, the story follows the loopholes in the criminal justice system which often deems a person criminal in spite of the convict's consistent plea of innocence. 

The first part, which was almost 10 years in the making, followed the story of DNA exoneree, Steven Avery. However, unlike the very first DNA exoneree, David Vasquez (who was the first defendant to be released on account of DNA testing in 1989), Avery continuously finds himself being the prime suspect in the murder of photographer Teresa Halbach. Things take an even more unfair turn when his nephew, Brendan Dassey, who apparently has learning difficulties, is pulled into the case and later compelled to confess his crime, along with Avery's, in the murder and sexual assault of Halbach.
