Paul are you familiar with the "West Memphis 3" and if so do you think they are guilty or not???? I have went back and forth on it but I am now leaning towards guilty as sin...I do not like how Johnnie Depp and others have turned them into Pop Culture Heroes.....The more I looked into it I came to the conclusion that they did kill them young boys...The reason I ask is the lawyers for them played the "They were young and just dabbled in the occult" defense and being as how you had some friends into that from the same time period I am curious about your take on it????
Dang, can't make up my mind either! It seems to me the prosecution had a pretty solid case in the original trial, but....
...I watched the three professionally-produced documentary films about those "boys" (not so much anymore) and I start to have doubts. The third film makes a fairly compelling case that it was one of the adult men (one of the dead kids' dads, maybe) that could have done it.
The west Memphis three seem like pretty scummy guys, honestly...but the world is full of scummy people who have never hurt anyone...scummy does. It automatically equal murder.
i guess my thoughts are this: either the boys murdered those kids, or the real murderer has used to boys to cover himself.
Bad stuff all around, really.
