I always thought that one of the dads found the three boys engaged in some "I'll show you mine" stuff, Freaked out, thought that this made his son gay, and then, in a rage, killed the son and the other boys. I just got this feeling that it's one of the dads in a gay phobic panic. "Better to have a dead son than to have to live with the shame of raising a little ******".

Have researched this case to the major max. It horrified me so - I'm the mom of five boys. From the get-go they had the wrong guys - the court case was a complete farce. The killers walk free to this day - eight year old boys in this country can't get justice. For me, Terry Hobbs has alot of explaining to do. Just when they get the sense to do bite mark comparisons, Terry Hobbs and that crazy Dad have all their teeth pulled out.

I remember the documentary. I had forgotten what it was called. Thanks for posting!

I've literally never had this response to anything I've seen on this site or any other site with equally horrific content... this shit actually made me cry.

Terry Hobbs is a good friend of mine. It was actually this crime that got me into all this, including this site. I can't look at these pictures. I used to be able to, but not anymore.

Some people speculate it was one of the boys' fathers. That step-father who looked like a retarded inbred Vincent Price was too obviously creepy to be a suspect

Some of the most upsetting crime scene photos I've ever seen. This whole case is fucking crazy.

Damien Echols & his crew were released because the real killers were never found. I mean there is Been eye witness accounts of people that have said that there was a man in those woods prior to Damien Echols and his friends even being there. I think they were set up. cuz the police had no leads so they pinned it on somebody it's just a pathetic way a lot of Backwoods cops do things. There were so many holes in that prosecution is an absolute joke.why cuz they listen to heavy metal it supposedly were devil worshippers oh we got to somehow pin the murders on those three young mencuz they're just not normal there somehow off. Give me a break. I've never seen a investigation with this many holes in the prosecution's case they had their man and they were going to put him in jail no matter what the circumstances. Sounds more like a witch Hunt to me in an actual murder investigation. And there was so many testimonies pictures evidence that were in immiscible in court. It was a complete farce. total police corruption. the only other cold Case I've seen where the cops did a worse job in...... was in the investigation of JonBenet Ramsey death. Tragic situation all the way around. .

You know the real killers of those two young boys are still out there to this day and it has nothing to do with Damien Echols in the other three. Cuz if it was Damien Echols or any of the other guys they be in prison for life they would have never gotten released. But the police knew that they didn't have the real killer like I said it was a witch Hunt a complete and utter joke but those Backwoods redneck cops had to pin it on somebody. Why not put it on the kids listen to heavy metal and wear trench coats and wear black combat boots and it's supposedly devil worshippers what a joke. Sad set of circumstances all the way around. I'm with Henry Rollins on this one.he dedicated an album to the innocence of Damien Echols and the other two or three people that were prosecuted.

Complete injustice all the way around
