Spooky Doings: West Memphis 3

On this episode, Chelsea & Rick revisit true crime with the case of the West Memphis 3. Chelsea explains what compelled her to watch the Paradise Lost documentaries recently, Rick following the case since the 90s, we lament the murders of Michael Moore, Steven Branch & Mark Byers, talk about the wrongful conviction of Damian Echols, Jason Baldwin & Jesse Misskelley & the Alford plea that eventually released them from prison while covering for the failures of Arkansas law enforcement. We also discuss our own teenage years as black clad misfits, the wide support for the 3 defendants, the corrupt & inept police that have still failed to catch a killer of 3 young boys, the importance of Joe Berlinger & Bruce Sinofsky & the ways the justice system constantly fails the poor in America. It's much heavier than our usual topics, but, we thank you in advance for listening. Please subscribe, review & give us that 5 star boop!
