Unreal.
Everybody likes Making A Murderer.
Everybody.
It’s got shocks, it’s got sadness, it’s got coerced confessions and a second season that isn’t as good as the first, but whatever, we got over it, it’s fine.
And even if you don’t like Making A Murderer, you’d definitely like to go and watch two lawyers from it talk about law for an hour of two.
You definitely would, yeah.
Which is why it’s very class indeed that Brendan Dassey’s lawyers, Laura Nirider and Steven Drizin, will be doing five shows in Ireland next year as part of their world tour.
Starting in Vicar Street in June 3, the pair will travel around the country stopping off in Cork Opera House on June 4, Dolans in Limerick on June 5, Ulster Hall in Belfast on June 6, and the Black Box, Galway on June 8.
The lawyers, who have represented Dassey since the end of season one, will be chatting all things coerced and false confessions, interrogation tactics, and how one would go about getting an innocent man freed from jail under the US criminal justice system.
Dassey, and his uncle Steven Avery, were imprisoned over 10 years ago for the murder of Teresa Halbach, a photo journalist who had visited the Avery property to take photos of some cars.
Their story received worldwide attention following the release of Netflix’s Making A Murderer season one back in 2015.
They both remain in prison.
Tickets for Inside Making A Murderer 2 – False Confessions: A Conversation with Laura Nirider and Steven Drizin go on sale this Thursday at 9am, for €30.00
