Steven Avery Early Life and Family
During his youth, Steven Avery attended public schools in nearby Mishicot and Manitowoc. His mother said he attended an elementary school for "slower kids". His mother also noted that he was never one to give up, even when faced with challenges.
He barely functioned in school, according to one of his lawyers in 1985. His academic performance was so poor that it became a point of discussion for his legal representation. Despite his academic struggles, however, he was able to build a loving family; his wife and four children remain an important part of his life. Avery married Lori Mathiesen, who was a single mother, on July 24, 1982. Rachel, Jenny, Steven, and Will are their four children.

In 1981, Steven Avery was charged with burglary when he was 18 years old. At the end of 1982, he was found guilty of animal cruelty after two men confessed to throwing a cat into a bonfire and watching it burn.
