5. KICK for the WM3!!!!

Maybe, finally, some reason?

6. No shit! I wonder if this is the story about John Mark Byers now convinced of their innocence.

He's been on the WM3 boards recently discussing some shows he'll be appearing on.

8. If Damien is innocent, what's with his comments in the first documentary?

This is what I've never understood.

He went off about being the boogey man, and how he would be remembered for hundreds of years for what he did. Now he's innocent?

[AlCzervik]

9. maybe he had just given up you know?

[Beelzebud]

10. Or maybe he's just guilty.

[AlCzervik]

11. maybe he is and maybe he isn't but hopefully that new evidence will help either

confirm or deny.

[gatorboy]

12. He never said he did it.

He said that parents would tell their kids stories about Damien being the boogey man because everyone assumed he was guilty.

13. The 2nd film seems to suggest that John Mark Byers is the culprit.

I haven't seen the 2nd film, but from what I've read of it, he damns himself a little by removing his teeth in a scene in the film. He offers the explanation that he lost the teeth in a fight. Later on in the documentary, a forensics expert says that from the photos of the victims bodies, it looks likely that they were bitten by the murderer and that the murderer might have had his teeth removed to avoid being tagged for the murders. Even further on, members of Free the West Memphis 3 ask Byers if he'd be willing to submit dental imprints in order to help clear his name, he responds by saying that his teeth fell out as a result of the medication he's been taking. When pressed further on the issue, he admits that he has had his teeth removed by a dental surgeon. Seems pretty damning to me.

14. Byers did look guilty especially after his wife died but there was also new evidence submitted to

the court that points to another person or persons.

15. Byers looks like such a psycho

I would not be surprised if he's the actual murderer. Not one damn bit.

16. Reminder kick.

17. I have always said that Stepfather did it....

Too many weird things, and everything pointed to him, but yet they convicted these three innocent men based solely on the fact that they were weird kids.
Good luck guys, you deserve to get out of prison and live a normal life.

18. you mean Byers? I think Byers may have killed his own wife but this new evidence

points to another parent and friend of parent.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

19. Oh...I thought I saw something about the stepfather...

I must have read too fast. Sorry.
