Steven Avery has the most successful appeal lawyer in America now on his case, and she’s already destroying the prosecution’s evidence on Twitter.

Kathleen Zellner has overturned more wrongful convictions than any other private US attorney, she claims, securing nearly $90 million for her clients betrayed by the US justice system.

Her firm "is looking forward to adding Mr Avery to its long list of wrongful conviction exonerations”, it said in a statement.

Ms Zellner's faith in Steven Avery’s innocence comes shortly after his former fiancée, Jodi Stachowski, told an American TV channel she believed Avery was guilty of Teresa Halbach’s murder.

The eyes of every Making a Murderer fan are following Ms Zellner as she sets about clearing the subject of the Netflix documentary. Only two weeks after taking on the case, in conjunction with Midwest Innocence Project director Tricia Bushnell, she is bringing down the evidence that put Avery behind bars – by tweeting.

She has been telling Making a Murderer fans what they want to hear:

And she has offered a reading list too, for those hungry for more Making a Murderer-themed content:

She’s no stranger to documentary coverage of her cases either, which will have fans of the Netflix documentary hoping for a second series.

A film following the story of her wrongfully convicted client Ryan Ferguson, dream.killer, premiered at Tribeca Film Festival in December, and its freed subject has shown his support for Avery.
