The announcement was made on Twitter on Monday morning by wrongful conviction attorney, Kathleen Zellner.
The announcement reads: "We are pleased to announce that a reward of $100,000 is being offered, by a concerned citizen, for the arrest and conviction of the real killer of Teresa Halbach. All tips should be called in to (630) 847 3733."
Wisconsin law enforcement has repeatedly thwarted the investigation into the Halbach murder since the frame-up of Steven Avery began in October 2005.
The bodily remains of Teresa Halbach were illegally transported to the Halbach family in 2011 in a secret scheme by Calumet County Sheriff Deputy Jeremy Hawkins, Sergeant Investigator Mark Wiegert, and DoJ Attorneys Thomas Fallon and Norman Gahn.
Fallon and Gahn now argue in post-conviction litigation that since the remains are no longer in State custody, the biological remains of Ms. Halbach that were secretly returned to the family can no longer be scientifically established to be the remains of Ms. Halbach.
This admission in 2018 changed the scene of the crime contradicting the State's narrative presented at trial, (Supplemental Motion for Post-Conviction Relief, March 11, 2019).
Advocates of Steven Avery hope the lure of a large monetary reward can induce citizens coming forward with information they possess about the killer, or other tips about the frame-up.
Still, advocates fear Wisconsin law enforcement are capable of anything.
