    MADISON, Wis. (AP) --

    Attorneys for the man convicted of helping his uncle kill a woman in a case profiled in the popular Netflix series "Making a Murderer" are asking for his release while his appeal is pending.

    A 48-page motion filed in federal court argues that Brendan Dassey is not a flight risk and would not pose a danger to the public if he's released.

    A federal magistrate judge ruled in August that investigators tricked Dassey, then 16, into confessing that he helped his uncle, Steven Avery, rape and kill photographer Teresa Halbach in 2005. The judge ordered that Dassey, now 26, be freed within 90 days unless prosecutors appealed or decided to retry him.

    Attorney General Brad Schimel has followed up with an appeal to the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

    Cash App announced Timothée Chalamet as the platform’s newest collaborator, marking the actor’s first-ever partnership with a financial services platform. The integrated brand campaign includes a 2-minute commercial spot, out-of-home advertising across NYC and Los Angeles, limited edition Cash App Card stamps designed with Chalamet, and more.

    Previous Chalamet collaborators Aidan Zamiri and Elijah Bynum were enlisted to direct and write the advertisement. The spot offers a glimpse into differing intergenerational views around money, with Chalamet unwittingly bridging the divide between a father and son. Chalamet visits a produce store selling rare vegetables and learns something peculiar: the owner only accepts antiquated forms of payment including iron ingots, salts, and cowrie shells. The owner’s teenage son, played by Izaac Wang ( “Didi” ), argues that these outdated currencies aren’t best serving his father and offers banking through Cash App as a better, modern solution. As Chalamet looks on with his mangelwurzel in hand, the shopkeeper has a breakthrough moment and realizes that embracing easy-to-use financial tools doesn’t change who he is or his values.

    The advertisement is currently in movie theaters across the United... Read More
