In 1993 during a time of Satanic Panic when three eight-year-old boys were found murdered in West Memphis, AR, police arrested & convicted Damien Echols 18, Jason Baldwin 16 and Jessie Misskelley 17 confession, Damien was sentenced to die, Jessie and Jason life without parole.
They were picked simply because they wore black, listen to heavy metal, and read Stephen King books. Accused of devil worshipping.
DNA testing proves no evidence points to these three men, people have confessed to lieing on the stand during the trial
during the 18 years that they were incarcerated, celebrities & supporters gathered around to get these boys out of prison.
Finally in 2011, they were released by an Alford plea: pleading guilty while maintaining their innocence. Now they fight for exoneration!
