Today, in Episode 8, we hear the testimony of Teresa Halbach's ex-boyfriend Ryan Hillegas. He organized the search party, he handed out flyers, hacked into her phone records, and he moved into her house after she was d3ad. (creepy right?)

Did police question him? Did he mention he was an ex-boyfriend? Did he use his real name?

When he's done, we'll then hear what Kathleen Zellner had to say regarding Ryan in her filed post-conviction documents for Steven Avery and what she discovered about Ryan that was never brought up in trial.

This one's...very interesting.

In Episode 7 of The Avery Trial, we hear from Curtis Drumm, a pilot hired by the police department to do flyovers around the area. Learn where they went and what they found. We also hear from two customers of Teresa's that day. One was just a bit on the sketchy side; well, not her exactly, more her husband who, weirdly, didn't testify.

Dawn Pliska, the receptionist at AutoTrader, was the one who made some of Teresa Halbach's appointments for her. The thing is though, her last known appointment? This leaves a big hole in the timeline. 

Teresa was known for getting those "hustle shots" that made her extra cash and these appointments wouldn't even show up on her appointment sheet until she turned them in...the next day. So did anyone really know where she went that day?

In Episode 5 of our deep dive into the Steven Avery trial, everyone's ready in the courtroom, and before the jury even walks in, the prosecution and defense are already fighting about what can and can’t be said.

Ken Kratz tries to slam the defense for suggesting someone else might have killed Teresa Halbach — but Dean Strang isn’t having it. We break down what the “Denny ruling” really means in plain English (spoiler: you can’t just blame some mystery person without proof).

Then, we hear from Angela Schuster, Teresa’s boss at AutoTrader. She explains how Teresa did these photo shoots, how “hustle shots” worked, and could it be possible that Teresa left the Avery property to head off to another shoot?

In this episode of Beach House 34, we dive into the first witness called by the state in Steven Avery’s murder trial: Michael Halbach, the younger brother of Teresa Halbach.

We’ll walk through Mike’s testimony, hear about Teresa’s routines, her photography business, her car, and the early days of the search. But we also hit a few red flags—exhibit confusion, awkward phrasing, and a clunky presentation by Ken Kratz.

Meanwhile, Dean Strang steps up for the defense and starts laying the groundwork for something deeper. Stick around. It’s just getting started.

Steven Avery spent 18 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Now he’s back on trial—this time for the murder of Teresa Halbach. In this episode, we hear the full opening statement from Avery’s defense attorney, Dean Strang.

He lays out a case that includes police tunnel vision, timelines that don't add up, and evidence that doesn't make any sense.  By the end, you’ll be questioning everything—from the burn barrels to that mysterious Toyota key.

⚖️ This is a real-time, word-for-word trial read. No fluff. No filter. And I’m reacting with you as we go.

If you haven’t heard Episode 1 yet, go back and start there—we covered the prosecution’s opening. Things are just getting started.

After 18 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit, Steven Avery was finally free. He was suing Manitowoc County for $36 million—until 25-year-old Teresa Halbach disappeared. Two years after his release, Avery was back in court. This time, for murder.

In this episode, we begin with Day 1 of the 2007 jury trial: the prosecution’s opening statement.
