Summary

In the second and final installment of our two-part episode, we enter the courtroom to hear some flimsy evidence and absolutely bizarre testimony. Get ready for witchcraft, covens, and satanism that convicted three teenagers of triple child murder.

Damien, Jessie, and Jason would spend the next 18 years in prison. And as the rusty cogs of the US justice system slowly turned, a final bitter pill of injustice was forced upon the West Memphis 3.

Hello, if you have listened to West Memphis 3 part one, then you'll know what I'm about to say.

0:05.6

If you haven't listened to part one, go back and listen to it. Otherwise this episode is going to make absolutely no sense.

0:09.0

We are going back on tour. We are back on the road. We are doing a United Kingdom and Europe tour,

0:16.0

assuming they will let us in with our stupid Brexit passports.

0:19.6

So please link episode description and click on it, go and buy tickets and we'll see you.

0:23.3

Absolutely. We'll see you in Dublin, Helsinki, Stockholm, Manchester, Oslo, Berlin, London,

0:27.0

and then in Edinburgh to wrap things up. So yes, get your tickets. Get your tickets, alright.

0:44.3

I'm Sruti. I'm Hannah. And welcome to part two of your bonus episode as a thank you for getting us

0:50.8

into the listener's choice. Gold category wants to get us. But not bonus because you've put it in the title.

0:54.3

No one listens to it. No, we haven't put bonus. Hannah is exactly right. We didn't put bonus in the title

0:58.6

because this was a lot of work. A lot of time well spent because it is a fascinating case.

to hear part two of this. We are going to be in Columbus, Ohio at the end of September beginning of

1:30.8

October at Obsessed First. The first time we will ever ever, but not the last time, that we will

1:39.4

ever be doing a show in the United States of America, which has been in the post for about four

1:46.0

years. My God, guys, before everybody's like, why are you only coming to Columbus, Ohio? It's because

1:50.9

visas are fucking long. They're long, they're expensive. And the wait times are very long for an

1:58.1

interview at the US Embassy in London. And then even if you cry, and even if you pay loads of money,
