True Crime with a Twist

Episode 2: The West Memphis 3 Part 1


Listen Later

This is going to be a hard one to hear. Today, we will start the deep dive into the West Memphis Three case. Part 1 will cover the tragic demise of 8 year olds: Christopher Byers, Michael Moore, and Steve Branch in May of 1993. In this part I will do my best to cover everything from the start of the initial report of the children going missing until the trial of Baldwin, Echols, and Misskelley and subsequent sentencing that followed the historical three convictions.
