I'm missing something here. He was convicted of rape and murder, then freed on DNA evidence. Now, he's being tried again for those crimes?

Separate crimes.

Avery was convicted of a 1985 rape, then exonerated by DNA evidence.

Upon his release, he then committed another rape (and murder) in 2005. And he has confessed to the second crime.

And in THIS rape and murder, the girl was also raped by another guy.

I wonder if he DID commit the original crime, DID rape and murder the girl he was convicted of, and the reason why someone else's DNA was found was because he had help on that rape/murder as well
