On her Fox News show _The Kelly File_ Tuesday night, [Megyn Kelly](http://time.com/70888/megyn-kelly-2014-time-100/) interviewed two key figures from Netflix’s new docuseries, [_Making a Murderer_](http://time.com/4165928/making-murderer-netflix-documentary/)_._ Prosecutor Ken Kratz and defense lawyer Dean Strang joined Kelly to discuss the trial of Steven Avery, which was the subject of the 10-part series.

In the segment — which begins about 23 minutes into the above video — Kelly grills both Kratz and Strang about some of the lingering questions viewers have been [debating](https://www.reddit.com/r/makingamurderer). She also asks them about [what details the documentary left out](http://time.com/4167699/netflix-making-a-murderer-evidence-left-out/). Kratz and Strang never debate each other directly, but they do toss some indirect jabs.

Both Strang and Kratz maintain the positions they argued during the trial nearly a decade ago. Strang participated in the documentary, while Kratz [declined to be interviewed](http://time.com/4167915/making-a-murderer-steven-avery-juror/).
