    Any news on the actual hunt for the killers of the three boys?

    Is Damien Echol's researching this case to try and find who did it, or is he simply trying to put his life back together and make up for all the time lost in prison (which would be perfectly understandable in my opinion)?

    OMG! That's f'nin funny. Johnny Depp wants to do the voice of a tree. The dixie chicks will play the suspense parts on the soundtrack. I can't wait. When is the release date? If Ed cancels... There is always Matt Damon?
    Maybe Rollins can act out the whole thing. Oh I wish Michael Bay Directs it... Dreams are Dreams....

    My Graceland Story: year 1987 just turned 18.

    My dad rents the longest limo in the world at the time to go to Memphis from Chicago to pitch a huge celebration of life concert for Elvis to Dick Clark and the Elvis estate members.It was August 1987. Best part was riding in the rumble seat in back people screaming Lisa Marie at me and waving as we cruised the boulevard in front of Graceland.... :lol: .

    Dick Clark lives up to his name-Dick. They shot him down but thats my dad hes fuckin kickass that way. :D

    Anyway, glad it worked out.

    Paradise is NOT Lost. Best Wishes. I enjoyed the article in the Sniper from the EV shows. I could sympathize with the writings in there.

    Please Help ! They All Have A slowness (IQ deficient)? Everytime the story is changed! Damien, Joesph , or Jessie? who is the Forrest Gump? I can teach Right from Wrong. I would rather die than confess to something I didn't do? I spent four years with mentally challegened kids. They like hugs and Pop o matic bubble, Sorry and Trouble (the board games). Jessie Mis Kell is not slow, Is Damien? Some reports say Joesph? Oh I love Media.

    I'm a little disappointed in Paradise Lost 3. I thought it was too easy on Terry Hobbs. They really should have shown more of his violent background, his changing versions of his story, etc.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    For many people, the case of the West Memphis Three has become synonymous with wrongful conviction. Despite a lack of physical evidence, three Arkansas teenagers were found guilty in 1994 of the ritual murder of three eight-year-old boys. Media attention led to an outpouring of support that has helped to keep them in the public consciousness for nearly two decades.

    Director Amy Berg examines the crime and its aftermath, providing a voice for the victims’ families, including those with doubts about whether the right people are behind bars. Rather than focus on the accused, the film follows their supporters—including loved ones, attorneys, and celebrity advocates such as Eddie Vedder and Peter Jackson—as they seek the truth. With the help of a former FBI profiler, a less sensational, yet still chilling, motive and suspect emerge—ones, shockingly, never investigated.

    With compelling, immediate access, West of Memphis follows the story of the West Memphis Three to its dramatic and unexpected conclusion, raising serious questions about justice and its compromises.

    I've been following this story for a long time, years before I even knew of Pearl Jam. I'm just glad that those guys are finally free. It's a good thing that they keep making documentaries though, because it raises awareness, and maybe someday someone else who was wrongfully convicted will be freed too. If you are interested in such a case, you should check out the Harlow Cuadra case, he is currently serving life in prison. The only link that I could find at the moment is http://freewronglyconvictedharlow.blogspot.com/ but I'm sure there are many more if you google it.
    I'm still out here waiting
    Watching reruns of my life

    You know what I was wondering? So one of Terry Hobbs's hairs was found in the KNOT used to tie up Michael Moore, right? And Hobbs said it was must've just gotten on the shoelace with which Michael was tied because the kids played at Terry's house - and then it stayed there for at least a day while the kid went home, took off his shoes, put his shoes back on, went to school, rode his bike all over the neighborhood, and got brutally murdered - right? Okay, so maybe that hair was just really holding on all that time. But how did it stay on the shoelace while the shoelace was being pulled out of the shoe, through all those tight little holes?

    i completely disagree. i think they pointed the finger and nudged viewers to look in his direction. i view him as the killer. The revelation of his own family members who came forward to offer evidence that hobbs admitted it and refers to it as the hobbs family secret may not be a direct result of pl3, but its not a coincidence that the peter jackson film just was shown at sundance, and pl3 just aired.

    i think the tide is turning. i would not want to be terry hobbs right now
