from Bad Things: True Crime · host Bad Things

In May 1993, three eight-year-old boys were found murdered in a wooded area of West Memphis, Arkansas. Within weeks, three local teenagers — later known as the West Memphis Three — were arrested and convicted in a case fueled by panic, controversy, and claims of satanic ritual. For decades, doubts about the investigation and evidence have divided the public. In this episode, we cut through hysteria, conflicting theories, and legal twists to uncover what most likely happened in West Memphis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
