West Memphis Three: Time for Truth - PART 2

Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley - also known as the West Memphis Three -- were teenagers when they were wrongfully convicted in 1994 of the murders of three children in West Memphis Arkansas. As highlighted in the landmark HBO Documentary "Paradise Lost," the investigation of these murders and subsequent arrests and trials were tragically mishandled, and amounted to little more than a witch hunt. To date, not one piece of substantial evidence, physical or otherwise, has connected the three men to the crime.

Now, after spending 15 years in prison, new DNA and forensic evidence has proven the innocence of the West Memphis Three.

This 20-minute video explores the new evidence in the case and gives Damien Echols a chance to speak in his own defense. Compiled from new defense and expert testimony, an interview with Echols on Larry King Live, and footage from '"Paradise Lost," 'West Memphis Three: Time For Truth" explores the latest chapter in this harrowing miscarriage of American justice, and leaves you aching to get involved.

"This is the most powerful and comprehensive visual representation of this very complicated story that we have seen to date. We only wish we could condense the facts so effectively." - Dennis Riordan and Don Horgan, Lead Counsels for Damien Echols

the more i hear damien talk the more i like him and realise that he seems like a very good guy

@ted818283 its not uncommon for a battered woman to stay with a man that has beat her and her kids and in some cases killed their child, I do believe that the three released are innocent of this crime, I believe that the truth will come out, and terry hobbs has something to hide and that will also come out, this man has a history of child molestation, abuse and attempted rape, and also murder, he shot pam hobbs brother which eventually resulted in his death, he should be investigated in my eyes

i bet the stepfather caught the little boys being gay and he killed them.

there seems to be more to him then what is shown

@Kornelius1972 I've seen a pic of the crime scene that shows one black kids shoe with the lace still in it. The autopsy also said that one of the kids were castrated. Considering how shoddy the rest of this investigation was, I wouldn't put too much faith in the autopsy report. The FBI agent that looked at the case said the injuries were caused by an animal. No murder weapon, no eyewitnesses, no bloody or muddy clothes, no motive, no dna, you do the math.

@bjornsmom123 Ive seen the autopsy reports on all three boys... they were all tied up with shoelaces, but the Killer(s) didn't take the time to neatly separate the laces as they were taken off the shoes.The report states the boys were tied up with different color shoelaces.....

Lets blame the victims families in this crime since there isnt enough evidence to convict the real killers
