Not included in the “Paradise Lost” advocacy flicks for the twice convicted killers of 8 year-old Stevie Branch, Christopher Byers, and Michael Moore (ie the West Memphis Three) is Damien Echols jailhouse confession to Jesse Andrew Hurst. Hurst got some of the details mixed up-but the majority of what Echols told Hurst is bone chilling. If Hurst's statement to West Memphis police is to be believed - it's clear Echols was weighing out the evidence against him & delighted that the police never discovered his footprints which were separate from the others according to Echols.

William Ramsey of the William Ramsey Investigates podcast joins Roberta to discuss the breaking news from the camp of the West Memphis Three child killers. Jason Baldwin is publicly bashing fellow twice convicted triple child killer Damien Echols. Baldwin pleaded for help to stop Echols lies. William Ramsey and Roberta Glass have been calling out Damien Echols lies for more than a decade. Why are Echols lies bothering Baldwin now? Does this new public statement have anything to do with the new DNA test results being reported to be released next month? Why does anyone care about these new DNA results when the West Memphis Three have never released the DNA results that they said exonerated them from 2011.

Damien Echols is a bestselling American author who spent nearly half his life wrongfully imprisoned on death row as one of the West Memphis Three, documented in the three-part HBO series Paradise Lost, as well as director Amy Berg's documentary West Of Memphis. This is not a conversation about true crime... it's a conversation about how meditation, spiritual study and ritual turned his prison stay into a monastery for his spiritual awakening, leading ultimately to not only his release from prison, but one of the greatest love stories ever told, and the secret recipe for forgiveness. LITA PODCAST: hosted, produced, and recorded by Jaymee Carpenter. SOUND MIX: Jonah LevineOPENING SONG: Tripura Subdari by Earthtones Music & Sheela BringiCLOSING SONG: Ocean Of Beauty by Earthtones Music & Sheela BringiInterested in Trauma Counseling/Mentorship with Jaymee?email: lacee@loveistheauthor.com to set up a free consultation,or visit: www.loveistheauthor.com/mentorship SPONSORS: YERBA MADRE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.yerbamadre.com⁠RAUM GOODS ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.raumgoods.com⁠⁠⁠⁠BOSSANOVA SOAP www.bossanovasoap.com⁠⁠⁠⁠TOTALLY BLOWN ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.totallyblown.us⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INDIAN LODGE ROAD ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.indianlodgeroad.com⁠⁠⁠⁠THiS SHOW is a LABOR of LOVE.

We are BACK for our second Broad Daze episode and apparently we've got pussies on the brain… cats, people. CATS. In true double-bestie fashion we cover everything from cat parenting, cat fostering and cat birthing (yes really) to kitty litter hacks, pee anxiety, spirituality, identity shifts, Parts Work and the lingering shadows of religious conditioning. From cats to horses (the Year of the Horse to be exact), we unpack what's currently shifting for all of us; what's surfacing for Rachel, what Tez is moving through, what Sarah's leaning into and what “Part” is showing up as Olivia navigates her toughie era. We dive into the many versions of ourselves that exist within us and how those parts protect, rebel and evolve. Then things take a darker turn as we wade into the unsettling world of the Satanic Panic, including the disturbing story surrounding the West Memphis Three case at the height of moral hysteria in America. We also talk religious upbringings, indoctrination, residual fear, reconnecting with the divine feminine, ancestral wisdom and why understanding both the light and shadow sides of our lineage matters so deeply.

The West Memphis Three case remains one of the most debated criminal cases in modern U.S. history, marked by conflicting interpretations of evidence, questions about investigative methods, and ongoing disagreement about guilt or innocence. While Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr. were convicted in 1994, years of scrutiny have raised concerns about the reliability of key evidence, including Misskelley's confession and disputed forensic findings. The emergence of alternative suspects and new DNA testing further complicated the case, leading to their release in 2011 through Alford pleas while maintaining their innocence. Ultimately, the case highlights broader issues within the justice system, including the risks of wrongful conviction, the influence of public perception, and the importance of thorough, unbiased investigations. As we conclude this case in its entirety, I want to remind you of the victims who don't get a second chance and still need justice: Stevie Branch, Michael Moore and Christopher Byers.

"When we told prosecutors we were innocent, they put us in prison for life. Now when we plead guilty, they set us free."On 19 August 2011, three men - Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr. - were transported from their respective facilities to a courthouse in Jonesboro, Arkansas. They were there to plead guilty to a crime they had spent the better part of two decades denying. At the same time, they were asserting their innocence and obtaining their freedom in an unusual legal maneuver called an Alford plea.What led up to that decision was the culmination of years of painstaking progress. What had started back in 1996 as a single HBO documentary had become a movement by 2011 heralded by celebrity backers and advocates pushing new DNA evidence. Yet at the end of the day, three men regained their freedom at a cost while questions continue to linger about the deaths of three boys...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

The West Memphis Three case centers on the brutal 1993 murders of three eight-year-old boys—Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers—in West Memphis, Arkansas. Police arrested three teenagers, Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr., who became known as the West Memphis Three. In part 2 we'll go over Jesse and Damien's trials and how the prosecution argued the killings were part of a satanic ritual, a claim influenced by the era's “Satanic Panic.” Jesse did confess to the murders after a long interrogation, which became a key piece of evidence, though he later recanted the confession and it's been heavily debated over the years.

In 1993, three eight-year old boys, Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Chris Byers, were murdered; their naked, mutilated bodies found shoved into the mud at the bottom of a ditch. The information developed by investigators pointed to three teenagers as the murderers. The three teens were convicted after two separate trials. One was sentenced to life imprisonment, one was sentenced to life plus forty years, and the third was sentenced to death. The convictions of the three teens became one of the most controversial cases in the State of Arkansas. During the early years of their incarceration, the growth of the Internet connected people all over the world through discussion forums and websites. As a result, the three teens, who became known as the “West Memphis Three,” developed a cult following that included the support of high-profile celebrities, including Johnny Depp, Peter Jackson, and Eddie Vedder and others, who all bought into the myth that the three convicted murderers were innocent.Today, the three convicted murderers are free. They appear to have given up their quest for judicial exoneration. Once they exhausted all other potential “guilty” parties, (some joined their camp and others were obviously not guilty), they focused their attention on Terry Hobbs, step-father of Stevie Branch, in an effort to divert attention from the evidence proving their guilt. Terry Hobbs was never a suspect in the murders and the facts of the case do not support his guilt. Undeterred, the convicted killers and their supporters continue to point fingers at Terry Hobbs.This is Terry Hobbs' story.https://amzn.to/4ui86q1Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

"When we saw Damien and Jason being chained up and taken off, it was just so emotional, because we felt the wrong guys were being carted off."In June of 1993, Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky were two young filmmakers coming off their acclaimed breakthrough and looking for a new opportunity. That's when an executive from HBO told them about a new story that had just taken place down in West Memphis, Arkansas, in which three teenagers were accused of killing three eight-year-olds. They assumed it would be a pretty straightforward story of youth violence.They spent their first few weeks with the victims' families and interviewed the prosecutors and police officials about the case. But then they met the defendants, everything changed for them. Over the next ten months, they were allowed unprecedented access to the courtroom, the families, the defendants, and the investigation...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

“I think I was the closest thing he could come to conceiving of what he thought a Satanist would look like. All black was the only thing I ever wore. Ridiculous hairstyles. I was a stupid teenager.”On May 6th, 1993 - the same day the bodies of three boys were found in West Memphis, Arkansas - a juvenile probation officer was standing at the crime scene as authorities gathered to process the evidence. In an offhand remark, he said that a local youth, Damien Echols, had "finally killed someone."The bodies hadn't been autopsied yet. No evidence had been processed and no interviews had been conducted. No suspects had been identified through any investigative means whatsoever. And a law enforcement officer was already naming a suspect at the crime scene. Not because of anything connected to this crime, but because of who that person was and what that person was rumored to believe...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

"One of my officers found a tennis shoe, and, inquisitive, he just jumped in the water and felt one of them."On the evening of May 5th, 1993, three eight-year-old boys - Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers - went out to play in the neighborhood around Robin Hood Hills in West Memphis, Arkansas. They were supposed to be home by dark but never came home. By 8:00 PM, their families had contacted police and were beginning to search for them with flashlights, but held back by the creeping darkness and the elements.The following morning, the community gathered to help participate in the search. Hours passed without any sign of the three. But at approximately 1:45 PM, a juvenile parole officer peered over the steep bank of a water-filled ditch near where the woods bordered the nearby Blue Beacon Truck Wash. He spotted something in the water...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

"As we face this shock... there's something that rises up and says it can't be, it shouldn't have happened."West Memphis, Arkansas was, in a lot of ways, the kind of American small town that people often romanticize. And like all romanticized places, it had its dark spots - such as poverty, underfunded social services, domestic troubles, and a police department under investigation by the Arkansas State Police for suspected mishandling of drug task force money. It was not a perfect place. But for the children who lived there, it was the only place.In the spring of 1993, three eight-year-old boys lived in that world. They rode their bikes through the neighborhood and explored the woods behind their houses. On the evening of May 5th, 1993, those three boys went out to play and never came home...Learn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meCheck out the podcast store at unresolved.dashery.comIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved-a-true-crime-mystery-podcast--3266604/support.

In 1993, three eight-year old boys, Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Chris Byers, were murdered; their naked, mutilated bodies found shoved into the mud at the bottom of a ditch. The information developed by investigators pointed to three teenagers as the murderers. The three teens were convicted after two separate trials. One was sentenced to life imprisonment, one was sentenced to life plus forty years, and the third was sentenced to death. The convictions of the three teens became one of the most controversial cases in the State of Arkansas. During the early years of their incarceration, the growth of the Internet connected people all over the world through discussion forums and websites. As a result, the three teens, who became known as the “West Memphis Three,” developed a cult following that included the support of high-profile celebrities, including Johnny Depp, Peter Jackson, and Eddie Vedder and others, who all bought into the myth that the three convicted murderers were innocent.Today, the three convicted murderers are free. They appear to have given up their quest for judicial exoneration. Once they exhausted all other potential “guilty” parties, (some joined their camp and others were obviously not guilty), they focused their attention on Terry Hobbs, step-father of Stevie Branch, in an effort to divert attention from the evidence proving their guilt. Terry Hobbs was never a suspect in the murders and the facts of the case do not support his guilt. Undeterred, the convicted killers and their supporters continue to point fingers at Terry Hobbs.This is Terry Hobbs' story.https://amzn.to/4ui86q1Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

#TruthAbout #TruthAndLies #WestMemphis3 #DamienEchols #NarrativeControl #Manipulation #Gaslighting #InternetHarassment #DigitalBullyingJoin me today as I dive deep into an accusation leveled against me, claiming I am “troubled” in my own life, so that causes me to lash out and become an “internet bully” that targets an allegedly innocent person who framed themselves as “just peacefully living their life.”Who is it that made this accusation? None other than Damien Echols, from the 1993 case colloquially known as the “West Memphis Three” case.So, could it be true? Am I simply picking on an innocent because he has a well-known name and I am troubled inside myself?Is there absolutely no other logical explanation for my actions? what exactly did I do? Was what I said, factually incorrect? Or defimation? Slander even?Or might it be possible that a master manipulator is once again attempting to control the narrative? I will leave this up to you so you can make up your own mind. All that I ask is that you join the show so you can discover my raw emotions behind my frustrations and how the harsh truth can strike a nerve with the faint hearted.RISE TO LIBERTY – LINKS:• Master Link: https://allmylinks.com/risetoliberty• RTL Merch Store: https://risetoliberty.store/• Substack - Beware The Mockingbird!: https://open.substack.com/pub/bewarethemockingbird• RTL's - Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/deprogram• RTL's - Ko-Fi Page:https://ko-fi.com/risetoliberty

On today's Saturday Matinee, we unpack one of most horrifying cases of misjustice that our country has seen- when a string of murders are wrongfully pinned on three young men, who later become known as "The West Memphis Three".

On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder,  and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.”  David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David's claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.”  New episodes of Death and Deceit in Alliance will be available every Tuesday and Friday starting on December 2 wherever you get your podcasts.

University of Michigan law professor David Moran never planned to spend his career freeing the wrongfully convicted. But after handling several appeal cases that exposed deep flaws in the system, he realized how widespread the problem really was. In 2009, he co-founded the Michigan Innocence Clinic, which has since helped free more than 45 people. Moran joins Lindsay to discuss how the West Memphis Three case reflects the patterns he's seen across wrongful convictions, why prosecutors sometimes pursue cases built on faulty evidence, and whether the justice system is finally learning from its mistakes.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
