Evans Jr. is currently in prison for murder not connected to Halbach's death. Two men, Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey, are in prison for killing Halbach. Both claimed they are innocent.David Trotman-Wilkins/Chicago Tribune/Getty/Getty The new confession comes just weeks after Avery's lawyer, Kathleen Zellner, announced a private donor had set up a $100,000 reward for anyone with new information on Halbach's death. The amount will only be given to someone whose information leads to a new conviction.
Evans Jr. could benefit from the funding, it seems, as he sent a bank deposit slip with his written confession to Zellner's office. Zellner shared a photo of the slip on Twitter Tuesday.it is likely the reward was Evans Jr.'s motivator. She also said Evans Jr.'s past connection to the Avery case was negative for the man currently seeking a new trial."I think the Evans confession has been totally discredited by those who really know the case," she explained.
