I saw that years ago... maybe in my early - mid teens and I didnt think those kids did it. Neither did my father.
We all kinda pointed our fingers to the one dad (maybe he was a stepfather?) "crying" and slinging himself all over the graves...

So good to see these boys (men now) free...and it sounded like the two aggreed to the deal to get Damian Echols free also. I hope they can move forward and make up all that lost time.

I personally feel that the 3 should be paid 100k for every year they were in jail EACH.

They wont get any compensation..
Its what our justice system is..sometimes right...sometimes wrong...

Look at O.J. he walked away after a double homicide... Money talks in our justice system.

Do you have a link to this? My wife is nuts about this whole thing, it would make her day.​

I read it in the paper today. I'll see if I can find a link.

from this article: http://articles.latimes.com/2011/aug/19/nation/la-na-west-memphis-3-20110820

Attorneys for Echols, in a February filing, said that DNA testing of a hair on a cord used to bind one of the victims was consistent with the DNA of Terry Hobbs, the stepfather of victim Steven Branch.

Hobbs has denied seeing the three victims on the day of their disappearance, but Echols' attorneys said they had found three eyewitnesses who said Hobbs was "the last adult seen with the victims" on the night they disappeared.

I don't know! Its hard to believ the jury could be so wrong,I won't be surprised if the dna test are never done. After all it might prove they actually did it! I think its wrong that they could plead guility and not be charged. If I was innocent,I just don't think I would ever plead guility! I'am thinking they got off off something they really did! And are using a lot of people who are to busy "looking for a cause" to see the truth!
