Corrupt Manitowoc County officials like Deputy Sheriff Andrew Colborn are portrayed in Making a Murderer (1,2) as a bumbling, dishonest and corrupt pieces of human filth, as indicated in criminal legal filings. Colborn has filed a civil suit, Colborn v. Netflix, Inc, et al |
They have cause to be desperate as attorney Kathleen Zellner closes in on not only exonerating her client, Steven Avery (and by logic Brendan Dassey), but also in a spectacle not seen in this medium, the docu-series: Implicating corrupt, crooked law enforcement in real time.
But desperate people like Colborn make mistakes, and Manitowoc County's Colborn just made a huge mistake: Colborn filed a defamation suit against the Making a Murderer producers, Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos, and Netflix in Manitowoc County Wisconsin Circuit Court, (Andrew L. Colborn v. Netflix Inc., Chrome Media LLC, Laura Ricciardi, Moira Demos, Lisa Nishimura, Adam Del Deo, Mary Manhardt, and Synthesis Film LLC).
To game out a likely scenario: Even in corrupt Manitowoc County: Colborn's suit will be tossed with attorneys' fees paid to defendants.
However, if Colborn v. Netflix, Inc, et al survives a motion to dismiss, then Colborn's case can be used as a vehicle to gather information, sworn testimony, massive discovery of evidence of the Avery frame-up, as Zellner continues her post-conviction defense of Avery.
Deputy Andrew Colborn: Corrupt, malicious and stupid is no way to through life.
From Steven Avery's former co-counsel, Jerome Buting, featured in Making a Murderer:
Hope suit survives motion to dismiss & goes to wide open civil discovery. @MCGriesbach please do depos of AC & KK on #payperview Millions will watch. Definitely won’t repair any Manitowoc Co reputations, but will help retire taxpayers debt from SA’s coming suit.#makingamurderer https://t.co/tUYylYDT7G— Jerome Buting (@JButing) December 18, 2018
