We have the opportunity to bulk purchase the transcripts of all the depositions in Steven Avery’s civil suit in 2005 from the court recording company. You will have seen small snippets of some of these in Making A Murderer and in the Post Crescent article by John Ferak after Making A Murderer came out.
There are 2,195 pages of transcripts from the depositions. We have been quoted a fixed price of $1.90 per page, giving us a total for all the deposition transcripts of $4,170.50.
Steven Avery’s civil suit lawyers, Kelly and Glynn, called every person deposed for a reason and recalled a few people for specific purposes, therefore we feel it is important to try and obtain every single deposition to get the full story.
If we do not manage to raise the full initial total of $4,170.50 then we will try to prioritize purchasing what seems to be the most important transcripts, for instance, someone like Debra Strauss from the Wisconsin DOJ would be a vital part of the story, especially as she has two parts.
There is also the opportunity to purchase the videos of each deposition, however, the company that hold the rights to them is unsure how many are in a recoverable state to convert into a format to be released to the public.
If all videos are convertible, it would be a further $1,317 on top of the $4,170.50 so at this stage, we feel it is best to get the transcripts first and then see how many videos are available.
Once purchased, all transcripts will be uploaded to a cloud site where everyone will be able to download all the files.
We thank you for your support!
Well done everyone and thank you
