'Making a Murderer' co-creator Laura Ricciardi discusses ethical implications of show in light of season 2
Ricciardi talks about the implications of handling a show with such a sensitive subject matter and what the journey has been like
The second season of Netflix's 'Making a Murderer' has been well-received by critics and audience alike. The show's first season dealt with Steven Avery, a man wrongly convicted of rape and then exonerated after spending 18 years in prison. The second season sees Avery and Brendan Dassey (who was accused and convicted of being an accessory to the crime) hire high-profile lawyers to fight their case.
Considering the sensitive subject it deals with, questions of moral and ethical implications of covering such subjects are frequently brought up. Laura Ricciardi, co-director of the show answered these pressing questions in an interview with Den of Geek.
