Trailer for the upcoming Peter Jackson produced documentary about the West Memphis Three. Looks interesting.

i still have no clue if they did it. I know it seems overwhelming that they didn't, but lets be real, there's a lot of reaching when it comes to stuff like Damien bragging, and Jesse's testamony, etc. The Paradise Lost docs are also really swayed towards the 3. If you watch 2, you leave thinking 100% it was Byers. If you watch 3, you leave 100% thinking it was Hobbs.
I'll still say they didnt do it, but that Echols... he's a really interesting guy.

I don't know enough about the case to form an opinion just yet, and going in to see this documentary I'll certainly keep that in mind because - as with every documentary - I know the producers are looking to swing me over to their side. Be open minded but critical.
