West Memphis 3

[sunny]

Has anyone here ever heard of the West Memphis 3? I've followed this case for a VERY long time. I'm curious as to opinions.

I remember the case....three little boys were brutally murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas. It was horrifying. Three teen boys were arrested and convicted for the terrible crimes, which involved all three 8 yr old victims being mutilated....satanic ritual-style.

I just did a Google search and apparently there are some who think the three teens arrested were "railroaded" into prison for a crime they didn't commit (the three convicted murderers were all Goths into satanism).

I'm not passing judgement, because I don't know all the details....but my gut instinct tells me the cops caught the right suspects. No similar crimes have occurred in the Memphis area in the 15 yrs since, and satanic ritual type killers rarely stop killing on their own.

I realize the American judicial system isn't foolproof....but firmly believe there are FAR more guilty murderers running free to kill than innocent teens in prison for murders they didn't commit. I see violent crimes being committed by teens in metro Atlanta every month, even by teenage girls that literally stun me...murders that shock my cousins who are veteran law enforcement officers.

Have you seent he documentaries? There were two, as well as a book. For me, there are a few things that do not add up. I'm not convinced that the teens are the murder(s).
