Summary

The West Memphis Three were convicted by two juries of killing eight year old Stevie Branch, Michael Moore and Chris Byers on May 5th, 1993 in West Memphis Arkansas. After campaign to free them West Memphis Three’s request for DNA testing gets green lit by Arkansas court. The West Memphis Three (Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin & Jesse Misskelley) still haven’t released the DNA results from 2011 but don’t let facts get in the way of a good “feel good” story about convicted child killers. This new ruling exposes the grift of the wrongful conviction movement and how it manipulates the public into thinking that DNA is the only evidence that matters.
