has to be the most onesided bias book Ive read in a long time, Shawn Attwood is not a fan of law enforcement in Wisconsin or the DAs office, Could it be he was a guest of Sherriff Arpaio of Arizona for distribution of the highly addictive drug ecstasy I would say yes.
Mr. Atwood came to the US penniless from the UK after graduating form college, Hmm. Last I checked, none of the airlines were giving out free tickets and I dont think the city of Phoenix gave him a place to stay rent free.
While the story lays out that Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey might be innocent, his conclusions are clouded with his utter disdain for law enforcement.
I am so glad the US has barred him from reentering for life, We dont need a wanker of his kind over here,
Two Stars.
Must read for mm fans
Brilliant book lots of good info a must read for all making a murderer fans.
Hope this book helps to get the truth to come out only time will tell, A complete disappointment. The majority of this book is just copied and pasted from court transcripts and interviews, There is no real analysis by the author other than a random comment here and there, It seems like the author has not conducted any actual research on the case at all,
Also a lot of the book focuses on Stevenswrongful conviction, not his current conviction which is what the book is supposed to be about
Take out the transcripts and theconviction and it would barely pass as an essay!!
Thankfully I didn't pay anything for this book as it was free with kindle unlimited, and I am glad that I didn't pay for it as it would have been a complete waste of money.
This book is basically a copy of the Netflix series, except it isn't as engaging or as well puttogether, The fact that the main review on its Goodreads page is from Brendan Dassey's brother is a good indicator of how partisan and unbalanced the book itself is.
If you're interested in this case and its contradictions, this book is not going to provide any info you can't get from the series and will possibly just frustrate you with its lazy and onesided 'analysis'.
Picking up from where Netflixs subculture phenomenon Making a Murderer left off, Shaun Attwoods new book is a damning expose of the corrupt lawenforcement officials in Manitowoc, Wisconsin.
UnMaking a Murderer systematically exposes the strategic framing of Steven Avery and his young nephew Brendan Dassey at the hands of a complicit district attorney and sinister sheriffs deputies.
Giving voice to the international outcry that ensued after the airing of thepart docuseries, Attwood unveils the covert tactics deployed by Manitowoc and Calumet County deputies chapter by chapter and strategy by strategy.
Challenging traditional assumptions and conventional beliefs in the US justice system, Attwood takes you on a journey where the lines between truth and justice are blurred as the fight for a conviction takes precedence over finding the real perpetrator.
Feel outraged at the gutwrenching manipulation of a young intellectuallylimited Brendan Dassey and anger at the first wrongful conviction of Steven Avery, which Shaun Attwood approaches like a sledge hammer.
Literally taking no prisoners, UnMaking a Murderer reveals the dark underbelly of Manitowoc
where innocent people do go to jail, and killers, stealthily go about their business.
This is the story of three wrongful convictions and those who conspired to abuse the law, "Finally, an amazingly honest book that details exactly how my brother was set up" Brad Dassey
Innocent people do go to jail.
Sometimes mistakes are made. But even more terrifying is when the authorities conspire to frame them, That's what happened to Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, who were convicted of murder and are serving life sentences,
UnMaking a Murderer is an explosive book which uncovers the illegal, devious and covert tactics used by Wisconsin officials, including:
Concealing Other Suspects
Paying Expert Witnesses to Lie
Planting Evidence
Jury Tampering
The art of framing innocent people has been in practice for centuries and will continue until the perpetrators are held accountable turning conventional assumptions and beliefs in the justice system upside down, UnMaking a Murderer takes you on that journey.
The profits from this book are going to Steven and Brendan and to donate free books to schools and prisons, In the last two years, Shaun Attwood has donated,books, Too Confusing for My Taste
I wasn't aware that the story hadn't concluded in real life, The author used far too many abbreviations, sometimes only initials, The method of organization led to too much repetition, Certainly the world isn't divided into good guys and bad guys, with all the bad guys working as crime prosecutors, I watched the documentaries still not sure about their guilt or innocence, After reading this book, the only thing I'm sure of is that the author is very biased and doesn't mind showing it, The book was confusing to say the least, I still have an open mind as to what actually happened but doubt I will be reading anything else by this author,
I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book, through Reading Deals, and I gave an honest review, After watching The Making A Murderer series I was still unsure whether Steven was innocent but after reading this book Im very sure of his innocence and Brendans.
The book gives facts that were not mentioned in the series and how things were rigged and they were basically framed, Really interesting read. Reid Technique,of state/federal cases conclude as plea bargains,
, Steven Avery nephew was exonerated of a rape/attempted murder Teresa Halbach, He spentyrs. in prison, amp he was about to receivemillion in compensation,
Sheboygan County jail. FBI SA Fassbender was assigned to interrogate Brendan Dassey,
Attorney Robert Dvorak had issued a subpoena against Mike OKelly for unethical conduct,
Len Kachinsky appeared on the Nancy Grace Show to discuss Brendans case,
Moira Demos producer was going to film Making a Murderer,
Gregory Allen had stalked, raped amp almost killed Penny Beerntsen,
Warning: This book contains extremely graphic adult content, violence, or expletive language amp/or uncensored sexually explicit material which is only suitable for mature readers.
It may be offensive or have potential adverse psychological effects on the reader,
I did not receive any type of compensation for reading amp reviewing this book, While I receive free books from publishers amp authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, Only an honest one.
A very awesome book cover, great font amp writing style, A very well written true crime book, It was
very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish amp never a dull moment, There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences, Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns amp a great set of unique characters to keep track of, This could also make another great true crime movie, a PP presentation, or better yet a mini TV series or even a documentary True Crime American Crime Story Investigative Discovery.
There are no references, works cited, or endnotes so I will only rate it at/stars,

Shaun Attwood delves into the continuous injustice falling upon Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, Fans of the Netflix series Making a Murderer will enjoy this book, It offers more insight to the cases, Mr. Attwood breaks down all of the evidence proving that Steven and Brendan did not commit the horrific rape and murder of Teresa Halbach.
I believe that the Manitowac Police Department was still angry about the outcome of Stevens first wrongful conviction, The work in that case and Ms, Halbachs case was complete shoddy police work, Even when all evidence pointed away from Steven Avery, the police still found a way to have him pointed out as the rapist.
Fast forward to Ms. Halbachs murder and the same thing is happening again, The Manitowac Police Department is responsible for the wrongful conviction and is trying to prove Steven and Brendan are murderers in this case to save face.
However, the evidence points away from both men completely, Its a sad thing to know that the people that are hired to protect and serve are doing everything they can to frame innocent men.
The horrible thing is that Teresas murder is still unsolved, The police were so intent on convicting Steven and Brendan that they didnt put their focus anywhere else, A murderer is still free and until the police department realizes that, the murderer will continue to roam free,
I was provided a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review, .
