Ruling was based on coerced confession.

He initially denied, then was told "he had nothing to worry about". After confessing, the state used his confession to convict he and Steve Avery, Dassey's uncle.

**I have no idea what happened. I figure Avery probably did it. Again, I don't know. The documentary shows only one side of the story, however I believe the documentary proved that the state's case terrible, and neither, especially Dassey, should've have been convicted.
