Those that know me, well know that I am obsessed about the injustice of a case called The West Memphis Three. I have taken every chance in school to use it as a topic for any of my Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice classes. Basically everything that can go wrong did go wrong in this case. So it is only natural that it fits any category I care to fit it into. I have held lenghty discussions on why I think these 3 boys - well since it's been 15 years, men are innocent. I gave a speech on it to test out of speech class. I remember one of my bosses at the time asked me how I was so certain they did not commit the brutal murder of three little boys. I said because there is not one shred of evidence that they did it. Not only that, a leading (ever hear of Peter Turvey? John Douglas?) profiler developed a profile that did not match the convicted. Peter Turvey, wrote one of the best profiles on this case, and I got a chance to study his book in a course for criminal profiling. Also John Douglas, has his own opinion of a single killer whose traits and characteristics did not match those that were convicted. Finally, DNA was collected and submitted for testing. Guess what? Not one piece was matched to Damion, Jessie, or Jason. In fact, the DNA tells another story, one that was ignored back when the investigation took place. Sick. Some recent WM3 news:
