Then WHY when he was told that his nephew had confessed, wasn't his reaction....WHAT?
Why didn't he say, "What the hell is going on?" He knew someone had killed the woman on the property.
Sorry, I meant to reply to this and got sidetracked with other replies.
I don't know what his reaction was to being told his nephew confessed, by which I mean I haven't seen a transcript or video of the police telling him that. I'd love to have a look at that if you remember where you saw it.
Avery was arrested 11/9/05. I don't think he consented to any further police interviews or interrogations after that. The police didn't start chatting up Dassey (for the record at least) until 2/27/06 and he is arrested as a result of his confession on 3/2/06.
