re: West Memphis three

It’s clear to me that the backwards bumbling keystone cops running the show pressured the mentally handicap kid into a false confession. Pretty despicable stuff.

Can you share any evidence that Misskelley is handicapped or the confession was coerced? How would you explain the confessions to his attorney or to the cops on the way to prison?

Hollywood loves to push an agenda and say the three couldn't have committed those crimes.

Here is a great site that provides a complete view of the case with referenced documentation to primary sources.

I do not care what you believe but at least have the right facts not just propaganda from the MSNBC crowd.

Pretty much all of those facts are circumstantial.

I ran into Aaron Hutcheson as an adult. He did some work for me.

Dude is kinda messed up. His mother is crazy.

He was the friend of the boys who got murdered, and should have been with them that day.

They're murderers.

Thanks for all the information guys. I find it troubling that the killer or killers have not been found. What has become of Echols, Baldwin and Miskelly?
You guys are more informed on this subject but right now I am leaning toward Miskelly and Echols as killers. I don’t think Baldwin was involved.
It’s troubling that Miskelly confessed to a friend the next morning that they had hurt some boys the day before.

The killers were convicted in two trials and pleaded guilty in 2011.

Echols lives in New York and continues to write books about and practice the occult. His post-conviction life confirms the likely occult aspect of the crime and dispels any hysteria of "Satanic Panic."

Baldwin lives in Austin and claims to run a foundation for the wrongfully convicted but to-date I do not believe has actually done anything. He also raised $30K for a book several years ago that has never been published.

Misskelley returned to West Memphis, where he has had a low profile but was popped for a couple of DUIs.

I think Echols and Baldwin are sociopaths - that had some really messed up childhoods. Misskelley was poor white trash too but seemed to have the more (sadly) "normal" trailer park childhood vs. some of the weird stuff Echols and Baldwin experienced, which puts some of their sociopathic tendencies into context.

Again, does not mean they did it, but there has not been a single piece of evidence pointing to anyone else but those three. The documentaries pointed to different alternative suspects, but they do not hold up to scrutiny.

If these guys are innocent, they're the three unluckiest people in the world.

I always default to Occam's Razor - if they were innocent, seems like one of them would have been able to come up with an alibi. The fact that none of them could is telling.

There are a lot of unanswered questions/ issues with this trial. I never liked the fact that Kent Arnold was not removed from the jury. The court and prosecuters undoubtedly knew of his mis behavior during the trial. As a prosecutor you would want to eliminate anything that could possibly give the defense something to talk about in appeal.

Yeah for sure, I definitely am not trying to say that I am 100% certain that they didn't do it, I just don't think I'd be comfy with guilty if I were on the jury.
