The Pine Grove Briar

S01 E19 Shadows Over Robin Hood Hills: The West Memphis Three


Listen Later

In this chilling, immersive episode of The Pine Grove Briar, we journey into one of the most haunting true crime cases in American history—the 1993 murders of three young boys in West Memphis, Arkansas, and the controversial convictions of three teenagers that followed. Known as the West Memphis Three, Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley Jr. were thrust into a national spotlight fueled by moral panic, flawed justice, and a community gripped by fear.

With our signature blend of atmospheric storytelling and historical insight, we explore the case’s timeline, the trials, and the decades-long fight for truth and justice. Along the way, we reflect on the cultural climate of the 1990s, the role of media, and how this case forever changed the landscape of true crime.

Grab your pipe, settle in by the fire, and prepare for a sobering journey through shadows, suspicion, and a search for answers that still echo today.
