WASHINGTON -- A teenager whose case was documented in the Netflix series "Making a Murderer" wants the Supreme Court to hear his case.
Brendan Dassey confessed to joining his uncle in raping and murdering a young woman. But his attorneys say the Wisconsin teen was pressured into a false confession and that video of the interrogation never should have been used to convict him.
