the truth in my mind is what convicted to start with. what i found to be the most compelling evidence of all, other than teresa halbach's bones, all of them, 270-plus bones in his fire pit, burned within the steel raid yells of a tire, that was burned there. it's called sweat dna. steven avery's sweat dna -- there's no dna in sweat. but, blood cells, skin cells come out in your sweat and that's under her hood latch, there's no known way to extract sweat from a human, like -- you can force someone to give their blood, their hair, their fingerprints, they're walking their speech, but not their sweat.

>> you feel that the evidence is overwhelming. dan, we heard from linsey's report, he has a new lawyer. >> she'll have to have something more than just this witness now is re-evaluating this juror, is now rethinking to get a new trial, remember this has worked its way up through the wisconsin courts already. the wisconsin supreme court has already heard this and rejected this. she'll need something new that can literally prove to some degree by convincing evidence that either the ed was planted or that someone else did it. and that's not going to be easy when you got all of this evidence. so, one new question about a police officer isn't going to be enough to get him a new trial. she'll literally need a convincing piece of evidence. >> he's right. he's right. that's been argued so many times, newly-discovered evidence.

could not have been discoverable at the time of the trial. it has to be new. dan was correctly describing the juror rethinking, while another juror has told us that they slept like a quote, baby, the night that steven avery was convicted and if he got out and they would be quote sick. i take offense with steven avery jumping up from behind bars and saying she was paid to say he was a monster. >> let's talk about that. >> i didn't pay him. >> this is her -- this is his ex-girlfriend who was on nancy's show talking about the fact that she felt that he's a monster snow. someone who's depicted in the documentary as being simp thet take him. just another person who's trying to falsely steven avery and now a whole list of them. the defense attorney said it just takes one person.

this of course because of the documentary. public opinion, it shouldn't play a factor at all, but does it, nancy? >> hey, if public opinion counted o.j. simpson would have been behind bars on double murder. >> it gets a judge to look more carefully at the case. i don't think it will change it. >> dan always, nancy good to see you. thanks so much. >> bye, guys. thank you, coming up here on "good morning america" -- the supermom caught on camera fighting a carjackers while her kids were trapped inside. now, she's speaking out about those terrifying moments. stand out. by design.
