Steven Avery. AP "Making a Murderer" creators Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos appeared on the "Today" show on Tuesday to reveal a new twist to the story of Steven Avery: At least one juror believes Avery was framed by the police.

Ricciardi and Demos' Netflix documentary series follows the trial of Avery, who was convicted of murder in the death of photographer Teresa Halbach. Throughout the trial, Avery's lawyers argued that Avery was set up by the local police, whom they accused of planting their client's blood on Halbach's car and leaving her keys in his bedroom.

According to Ricciardi, the filmmakers were contacted by one of the jurors after the series was released last month.

"They believe Steven Avery was not proven guilty — they believe Steven was framed by law enforcement and that he deserves a new trial," Ricciardi told the "Today" hosts. "And if he receives a new trial, in their opinion, it should take place far away from Wisconsin."

Halbach was found dead in Wisconsin's Manitowoc County, where Avery and the jurors were from, and the trial was in nearby Calumet County. Avery has long been a well-known and semi-notorious figure in the area.

"Making a Murderer" suggested the jury pool may have been tainted by the media coverage leading up to Avery's trial. A televised news conference by the case's prosecutor, Ken Kratz, for example, included a graphic description of Halbach's killing based on potentially flawed testimony from Avery's nephew, Brendan Dassey.

The filmmakers said the unnamed juror told them the juror's vote to find Avery guilty was made out of fear.

"Obviously we asked this person, 'So, explain what happened, why did you cast your vote for guilty?'" Demos said on "Today." "And what they told us was they feared for their personal safety."

While this may not have an immediate legal impact on Avery's conviction, it is further fuel for theories that he unfairly sits in prison.
