"You don't want to muddy up a perfectly good conspiracy movie with what actually happened, and certainly not provide the audience with the evidence the jury considered to reject that claim," Kratz told People magazine via email.

The former Calumet County prosecutor has been under fire from viewers of the Netflix series: His law firm's Yelp page has been inundated with negative reviews, he has been harassed on Twitter and Facebook, and he says that he's received death threats.

The series follows the investigation and trial of Avery - who had previously served 18 years in prison for a rape and attempted murder for which he was exonerated - in the 2005 murder of Auto Trader magazine photographer Teresa Halbach on his property.

"Making a Murderer" executive producer Moira Demos has said, "The key pieces of the state's evidence are included in the series." According to Demos, Kratz declined the producers' invitation to interview for the series.
