Burn After Reading

On the evening of December 9th, 1974 in small town Raglan, Ontario, a young woman's life was unjustly stolen from her. Fatally shot in the back of the head in her very own home. That woman was Beverly Lyn Smith. You may have heard about her case on some podcast or YouTube Channel, but Amazon Prime Video created a four part docu-series in May of 2022. They, like the podcasts and YouTube channels didn't tell the full story. I will! This series is for Beverly and the family who love and miss her dearly.

Covering the propaganda in the West Memphis Three case that started in a documentary in 1996 and has grown into a monster.

It's popular belief that Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley (Infamously known as the West Memphis Three) were railroaded by the justice system for the murders of Stevie Branch, Christopher Byers, and Michael Moore. Why? Because they dressed in black, listened to Metallica, and read Stephen King. But what if that's not true? What if it's all propaganda? What if Damien, Jason, and Jessie are the cold blooded murderers they were accused and convicted of? In this episode, I go over why the West Memphis Three are guilty.

I also offer some other useful insights while heavy on the snark. Summary of the case: On May 5th, 1993 three eight year old boys were murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas.  Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley were arrested, tried and convicted of killing Michael Moore, Stevie Branch, and Chris Byers.  In 2011, they pled guilty to the crimes using an Alford Plea, yet were released from prison with time served.
