Colborn's lawyer, Michael Griesbach, said of Colborn, "His reputation and that of Manitowoc County, itself, has been severely and unjustly defamed. He is filing this lawsuit to set the record straight and to restore his good name."
It is clear that this lawsuit will make everyone think twice about Colborn and realize what a great guy he is and not the clown portrayed in the documentary. Sure, he did nothing when it came to Steven Avery sitting in jail the first time and he maybe forgot to file paperwork on the phone call from Brown County. But his character really took a hit when the documentary showed him answering questions about the license plate.
Don't forget Colborn's Oscar-worthy performance when finding the key that had only Steven Avery's DNA on it. Oh, that man fought the great beast of a nightstand, while his adult supervision was playing with himself on the bed, and produced a key that was hiding behind the nightstand and was only discovered by great police work and six searches of the trailer.
But the gun and the bullet that proved Avery did it, according to Colborn. The bullet came from the gun, but there is no proof Avery fired the gun. There is that bullet with DNA but no blood in the garage. There is deer blood but no human blood, except on the bullet hiding in the shadows of the garage.
A good detective would question Hallbach's boyfriend, the ex-boyfriend, and brother about the missing messages. But they knew they had their man when Avery became the only suspect.
"I just want my name cleared," Colborn said.
