Today, we hear from Special Agent Tom Fassbender. co-lead investigator in the case against Steven Avery.

From the time that officials begin showing up, including at first, Manitowoc county, we learn about all the early and what feels like a very chaotic scene in the early searches.

Here, we learn about what agencies were involved, how the searches were conducted (at first) of the property, the buildings, and vehicles. He flat out says that the first person they look at is the last person to see the victim alive...and yet...this WASN'T Steven Avery.


And then there's the burn barrels.


Fassbender's testimony is very long and this episode is all the prosecution's questions...and then they broke for lunch. The prosecution isn't even done yet. We'll hear more in Part 2.
