Ruling on Dassey’s Confession Expected Friday in Teresa Halbach Case
A judge is expected to decide Friday morning whether Brendan Dassey’s statements to police in the Teresa Halbach case should be admissible.
Sixteen-year-old Dassey told police he was involved in Halbach’s rape and murder last October 31st.
Dassey’s attorney argues the statements were not voluntary, and that Dassey didn’t have the intellect or sophistication to understand what was happening when police interviewed him.

Prosecutors have stated that authorities didn’t coerce 16-year-old Brendan Dassey into telling investigators about his alleged involvement in the killing of Teresa Halbach last October.
Ken Kratz said that Dassey’s statements are admissible in court because he was interviewed properly and he wasn’t forced to confess, WISC-TV reported.
