Those murders are pretty much solved. Both murderes are dead (Bo and Marty, the neighbors did it). Bo was under witness protection (mob), so the cops never presued the case. It was all a huge coverup. Very interesting case, though.
There is just so much weirdness associated with this case you think it would have been simple to crack. I have no doubt it was a cover up because reading about it sounds like fiction, it's so damned bungled

I know there was no evidence to convict them
Other than a confession by Jason Miskelley that included the lake where one of the murder items were located, there wasn't much.
I'm confident the 3 had some involvement. But there were several others including the crazy as frick step dad that pulled out his teeth once he heard there might be bite mark evidence.
That entire trailer park was guilty of something.

I agree. The 3 were let go after big support, but nothing convinced me that they weren't potentially guilty. Folks got so involved with the witch hunt that they eventually lost sight of the case. Crazy mess

Seneca Guns Mysterious noises, often compared to rolling thunder or distant cannon fire, are frequently heard off the Cape Fear coast and the Myrtle Beach area. Although reported regularly at points up and down the Eastern Seaboard, Seneca guns seem particularly concentrated off the Carolinas.

But one of them looked exactly like him per the counsellors? You say that like you know for a fact, which you don't.

It is Jesse miskelley and his confession got virtually every material fact related to the murders wrong. The boys were strangled to death... No knife was even used to kill them as has been repeatedly debunked. Also, you'd think a murderer would know whether he committed said triple murder in the morning or at early evening. Miskelley told investigators they killed the boys in the morning. The boys were in school that day. He said they bound them with rope. They were bound with their own shoelaces.

I know there was no evidence to convict them, but what evidence exonerated them?[/quote
Basically DNA testing cleared them. You'd think a drop of DNA would be left behind in a satanic blood orgy huh. Also, the prosecutions two bullshite witnesses fully recanted and apologized. It's a subject I'm extremely passionate about so I apologize if I'm testy about it

Not from USA history, but The man from Taured has always been pretty weird mystery to me.
for people who don't know the story..
- 1954, a professional caucasian man appears in customs line carrying European currency, some business documents, and a pass port from the country of Taured.
- Japanese officials take him in interrogation room.
- Passport appears completely legit and he even shows them a drivers license.
- The man points at a map and points at a place where Taured isn't to be and explains that it has been around for 1,000 years.
- bewildered, security locks the man in the top room of a hotel with 2 guards guarding the door.
- The next day the man is GONE

When I was young, I went to a camp for a month each summer to a camp in North Carolina. I went on a week long hiking trip along the Appalachian trail and we would stay at predetermined wooden shelters along the trail. On the third day, deep in the woods, we arrived at the shelter to find a strange group already there.at the time, I had never seen so many guns and tactical equipment in my life. I was young enough to not realize it was weird until I could tell our two counsellors were freaked the frick out. There were 4 or 5 filthy people in the hut that didn't say a word but just stared at us as we walked up and immediately were told to turn around by the counsellors. I remember one of the conselors telling the other that he swore it was that guy wanted for bombing the Olympics. Months later, in2003, Eric Rudolph was arrested in North Carolina for murder and terrorism. Part of his plea agreement, which I learned years later, was leading police to over 200 pounds of dynamite he had hidden in the forests. Typed all that on an iPad, deal with it
Brah we may have gone to the same camp. I remember hearing a lot of rumors

No. It's the most interesting case, too me. I was being serious. Keddie28 is a forum dedicated to the case. Check it out.

quote: The month after the Keddie murders, Marty called a therapist and told the doctor he was being blamed for the killings. Ten years after Marty’s death in 2000, his therapist came forward and told the Plumas County Sheriff's Office that Marty had confessed to killing Sue Sharp. He also told the police that Marty was a friend of Plumas County Sheriff Doug Thomas and that Marty once let Thomas live with him. The therapist admitted that Marty told him that beating the polygraph was easy. Additionally, Marty said the reason he killed Sue was because she was trying to talk Marilyn into divorcing him. According the therapist, Martin Smartt did not confess to killing Dana, Johnny or Tina and he never said who was responsible for their murders.
Marty was married to Marylin Musgrove at the time. They lived in the cabin right next to the cabin where the murders took place. Why else were two lives spared that night? Because they were Marylin's kids and she knew what was going on. Bo Boubede was Marty's friend and was staying with Marty and marylin at the time. It's a crazy case full of corruption.

Have the graveyard murders in Louisiana been mentioned?
I think some people were killed with a scythe. I want to say I saw it on unsolved mysteries

And has the IQ of a turtle shell.
That entire trilogy did two things well:
1) Showcase the "white trash" mentality
2) Make the West Memphis PD look very, very stupid.
I do not think the three of them are guilty, but as someone else said, there are a lotta folks who have been silenced for whatever reason and they likely know the whole truth.
Steve Branch's step-father still has my vote, but he did not act alone.
