West Memphis Three: THE RELEASE – BREAKING NEWS

By Geno McGahee

Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelley and Jason Baldwin may see freedom today after two decades in prison for a crime that the vast majority of people believe they did not do. All of the evidence points to another killer. The DNA, bite mark evidence, and “confession” with factual errors by Misskelley have raised more than a reasonable doubt.

The three were convicted in 1994 of killing three 8 year old boys in Arkansas and the miscarriage of justice spawned two documentaries. Celebrities and the media have come forward in defense of the three and the fight may finally be over with the release of three innocents.

We should know soon about this hearing today what the fate of the West Memphis Three will be. All signs are pointing toward release. It is about time.
