West Memphis 3 finally freed!!!

[shootemindehead]

My personal jury is still out on the whole thangie. I saw the docs way back on HBO, and everyone, including the 3 doods accused, were some weird ass people. I gave up on wondering who did it. It could've been anyone: them, the one's stepdaddy with no teeth, the ice cream man, Mr Freakin' Bojangles...?!?!? And those docs were very on the sides of the 3. I'd say that swayed alot of the public alone, without bothering to dig deeper into the facts. Experts, schmexperts. I'm just saying... I can't imagine that the three kids did anything. Sure they could act wierd, especially Echols. But really, he was only acting like a dumb teenager would act. Christ, I was a bit like that myself at 17. However, Byers? That guy's away with the fairies. He's as mad as a box of frogs, weapon obsessed, extremely violent, has a serious criminal record, possessed with a religion and is a proven liar. Why he was never fully investigated is a farce.

I'd say that swayed alot of the public alone, without bothering to dig deeper into the facts. Experts, schmexperts. I'm just saying... You mean:- The material included hair from a ligature used to bind Moore and a hair recovered from a tree stump near where the bodies were found, Arkansas Supreme Court documents said. The hair found in the ligature was consistent with Branch's stepfather, Terry Hobbs, while the hair found on the tree stump was consistent with the DNA of a friend of Hobbs, according to the documents. Does seem odd this evidence being at the crime scene?! And this from elsewhere:- DNA was found on the murder scene from one of the stepfathers, Terry Hobbs. Hobbs is an alleged child abuser and violent person with sexual deviant tendencies. The ex-wife of Hobbs and her family are convinced that he had something to do with the murders. The hope is that this case will not be brushed under the rug and that the pursuit for the real killer(s) will continue.

Paradise Lost 3 - Best Documentary http://www.aintitcool.com/node/52139

this whole case was the poster child for one of the most important life lessons you can ever learn: don't EVER and i mean EVER talk to or give a statement to the police without an attorney present. jesse misskelly's (hope that spelling is right) "confession" is a classic example of a false confession. take someone with an IQ of like 80 or so (i believe jesse's IQ was in that range, if not lower), without any education, without any legal advice/representation, put them in a room with cops trained in interrogation and that person will end up admitting to just about anything in the world, most of the time simply to please the interrogators. the shit thing is that so much time has passed that the chances of actually catching the monster that perpetrated this abomination have diminished to near zero. -- -------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 PM ---------- Why he was never fully investigated is a farce. because the police already had their devil worshipping teens. that sort of shit sets off all manner of panic, bells and alarms in the american south (esp. the so-called bible belt) and is absolutely great fodder for the media. hey, with such a fuckin' circus already in swing who needs an actual, professional investigation.

I must get around to watching these documentaries!

The book isn't biased, like those documentaries. Neither is the new evidence they found, which points to one of the victims' father and his friend. Oddly enough, they aren't doing shit about it. Everything is bias.

[Mike70]

Everything is bias. understanding is a three-edged sword.

You know what? Maybe they're innocent. Maybe that one guy's toofless stepdaddy did it. But alot of times, most of the time, people plead retarded after they confess, just to get out of it, much later after the fact. Unless we build a time machine we'll never know. No one can be sure those idiots didn't do it. Stoopid people do stoopid things and then recant it. I know I have/haven't.

*Tries to picture a three-edged sword* B5 reference- a vorlon saying. i was agreeing with you. in any argument/debate etc. there is your side of the story, the other side of the story, and then the truth which lies somehwere in the middle and is never, ever reflected either in the pro or con side.

I'd been following their story for years! I was so happy they finally got released! My heart goes out to them for all they had to endure.
