So the alleged ring leader confessed, they are sentenced (one to death), but later take a plea deal saying "we didn't do it, but you have enough evidence to convict us"? Our legal system is fucked. If we have the evidence to convict them then let then have a retrial and if convicted fry them right there. If they are found innocent then let them go and search for the real killers. Obviously they were already convicted and now say the state has the evidence to convict them again. Sounds like they should still be rotting in prison. Wait Johnny Depp supports them? Oh, then obviously they're innocent. We as Americans should be ashamed of our justice system.
i can't blame the suspects for taking the deal. they've been in jail for the past 17 years for something they didn't do and why take any chances when there's a deal on the table and they can finally be free. we should be ashamed of our justice system, they should have been able to admit they made mistakes. that they may have sent 3 kids to jail for something they didn't do and the let the real killers roam free for the past 17 years and counting. but they take this cop out plea deal instead.

the reason this plea deal was set up is because the evidence is so soo strong the other way and the prosecutor are trying to save face. there was hearing set up for later this year where it may been decided that a retrial was needed and if that would have happened, which it most likely was, the memphis da would have lost the case. so to prevent that they set up this plea deal.

The state of Arkansas blackmailed these men with their freedom after railroading them for 17 years, all to save face and avoid a devastating lawsuit down the road.

It's truly sad when innocent men must admit guilt while maintaining innocence in order to secure their freedom.

All I am saying is that someone or a group of someones committed this crime.Besides the 3 kids that were charged.I know the DA said case closed on this case but no one is being held accountable.Sorry if my comment was asinine.It's sad on both sides.I should have been more clear.

This is the kind of story that makes me wish there were a real life Punisher out there somewhere.

I prefer The Boondock Saints. If you've ever wanted to take justice into your own hands then watch this movie. I so wish I could do it. Well technically I can if I wanted to...

if they caught the real killer(s) tomorrow, and there was a confession, and there was irrefutable proof there would still be people who think the west memphis 3 are the real murderers.
some people are just to stubborn or have to much blind faith in the legal system. in the end the legal system is made of people and people make mistakes. though the justice system works for the most part we can't be scared to question or challenge it when we think a wrong has been committed, i'm just glad were in country were we can. who i truly feel for today are the parents of Michael Moore, they still think echols, misskelley, and baldwin are the true killers. imagine the pain they must be going through thinking the men who killed there son are now free. so i'm hoping they do indeed find the person(s) responsible for murders as soon as possible. but with a case this old i doubt it. |
