A filmmaker says he's unsure if the confession of a Wisconsin inmate that he murdered Teresa Halbach will hold up.
"I probably lean toward 'no,' but I think it’s pretty important that it’s thoroughly investigated," Shawn Rech, director of the upcoming docuseries "Convicting a Murderer," told USA TODAY Tuesday.
Rech said the inmate told his film crew that he had killed Halbach, Newsweek reported Monday.
While Rech didn't identify the inmate in the Newsweek article Monday or in USA TODAY interview Tuesday morning, he did confirm Tuesday afternoon that the inmate is Joseph W. Evans Jr.
