MANITOWOC - Brendan Dassey got a visit from his family. The 16-year old is being held at in connection with the death of Teresa Halbach.

When the family left the facility they shouted at our cameras. They claimed the 16-year old has been framed in the murder of the 25-year-old photographer. Dassey, along with his uncle Steven Avery, is charged with raping, torturing and killing Teresa Halbach. Police got a confession from Dassey about his role last week.

Both Avery and Dassey will appear in court March 17.
