"That was a huge discovery because the car doesn’t appear on the Avery property until November 5," Zellner told Newsweek. "It's a problem when some of [the investigators] are planting evidence and others are honestly doing their job and documenting their malfeasance.”https://twitter.com/MakingAMurderer/status/768500735411486720 In the motion, Zellner expands on her theory that Avery was framed after Manitowoc County Sheriff's Deputy, Andrew Colborn, allegedly seized the car on November 3.
"Ms. Halbach’s vehicle was moved from the Fred Radandt Sons, Inc. quarry to the Avery property using the conveyor road that led onto the Avery property from the quarry," the motion reads. "Mr. Avery contends that the blood evidence was planted in Ms. Halbach’s car, by law enforcement, prior to the discovery of the vehicle on the Avery property on November 5, 2005."https://twitter.com/MakingAMurderer/status/763413298276626436 The motion also claims that two "non-law enforcement people" entered the Avery property after it was closed to the public, and those two individuals lied to investigators about seeing a fire on the Avery property and details regarding Halbach's car. https://twitter.com/MakingAMurderer/status/748564050133426178 Zellner is also seeking DNA evidence so they can be tested using more modern technologies than were available a decade ago.
"Since 2007, more sensitive forensic DNA techniques have been developed that can recover sufficient DNA for profiling from…fingerprints," says the motion, "If the unidentified fingerprints on the victim’s vehicle match either Officer [Andrew] Colborn or Officer [James] Lenk, it would be significant evidence of their involvement in moving the victim’s vehicle onto the Avery property."Read more:
