Amy Berg: I think it's something that's so hard to imagine, that somebody that you brought into your house actually could have done this. I always check in to see how she's feeling about her situation. I think she's starting to unravel over it. She said to me, "In the past year, I can't stop listening to this voice. I think he did it. I really think he did it.". Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley released in August 'West Memphis Three' spent 18 years in jail accused of killing three boys Steven Branch, Christopher Byers and Michael Moore found dead in 1993 Now Steven's mother Pam Hobbs wants ex-husband Terry Hobbs probed. The West Memphis Three were teenagers back in '94 when they were convicted for the murders of eight-year-old Cub Scouts Steven Branch, Christopher Byers and James Michael Moore. At the time, police called the murders "Satanic" because the TEENren's naked bodies had been bound and apparently mutilated. However, recent DNA tests did not link the young men to the scene and showed the presence of others who have never been identified. And the new documentary, West of Memphis, suggests the three young boys were never mutilated, but preyed on post-mortem by snapping turtles commonly found in the Arkansas-Tennessee border town.

Ellington, one of three Democrats running for an east Arkansas congressional seat, said he knew prosecutors faced a tough legal fight in the case. While Berlinger admits that he and Sinofsky may have tilted "pro-prosecution" in the early days of filming, that quickly changed after witnessing how the cases came together and spending time with the three teens during pretrial jailhouse interviews—particularly Baldwin, who Berlinger describes as "sweet" and "studious.". and listening to Ozzy Osbourne. It's no surprise the juries found the prosecution's narrative compelling, Leveritt says: For them, the image of killer satanists headbanging to Metallica was more than plausible. When the credits rolled shortly after the unforgettable final scene, which shows a now-convicted Baldwin and Echols leaving the courtroom in handcuffs and entering a police cruiser as Metallica plays, Baldwin sat stunned. Mojo, however, was considerably more fired up, believing the same thing many of Paradise Lost 's viewers did: that the movie showed an incredible miscarriage of justice, one that would surely be fixed. "Mojo jumped up," Baldwin recalls. "He said, 'J.B., you're going home, man, you're going home.'". Mojo was right. He just didn't know it would take another 14 years to happen. "My first thought is, 'I hope this dude isn't trying to pull me into some type of escape,'" Baldwin says nearly a quarter-century later. In June 1996, 'Paradise Lost' debuted on HBO, bringing the story of the West Memphis Three to TV sets and showing the power of the camera in the courtroom. A quarter-century later, what does the documentary tell us about citizen activism, the criminal justice system, and the Satanic Panic of the 1980s and '90s? Mojo had a different idea of what might get the man he affectionately called "J.B." out of prison. With the guards' blessings, Mojo led Baldwin to Varner's visitation room, where everything had been put away aside from two chairs set up in front of a cart holding a small TV and a VCR. Baldwin remembers grabbing a Mountain Dew and a burrito and sitting down, still unaware of what he was about to watch. "The fact is, if these guys had been acquitted, don't think that Blake wouldn't have had his lawsuit ready to go," Ellington said, referring to Blake Hendrix, Baldwin's attorney. But on that early morning in 1997, Jason Baldwin wasn't concerned with Berlinger and Sinofsky's craft, or legal precedent, or crusading celebrities. He was just taking in the enormity of the defining event of his life to that point, which had been committed to film and was now playing for him inside the cavernous, auditorium- style visitation room. "It was so emotionally taxing to watch and go through it again," he says. "But I had to. I couldn't not watch it at this point. I'm seeing the things I experienced, but not through my own point of view. It was almost like an out-of-body experience.". "That was the one whole ace in the hole for the defendants to get Echols and Baldwin a new trial, when that juror took that evidence back in there and openly discussed it with the others," Ellington said. "I believe that was what was going to be the ringer for getting a new trial, if not by the state court but the federal court.". The attorneys representing Echols and Baldwin believed that the juries wouldn't accept the prosecution's versions of events—that they were too fantastical and tied to second-hand information—and that without conclusive proof, their clients would walk. Baldwin's attorneys even avoided putting him on the witness stand or mounting much of a defense, believing the burden was on the state. But then the verdicts arrived: Both Baldwin and Echols were found guilty on all counts, just like Misskelley had been six weeks before them. The evolution of how the teens were perceived—on behalf of both the filmmakers and even part of the defense team—is captured on camera early as Stidham and his colleagues began to consider whether Misskelley's confession had been coerced. Stidham, who was just 30 years old and not long out of law school when the court appointed him to be Misskelley's attorney, went in thinking he would negotiate a deal for his client, who had told police that his acquaintances Baldwin and Echols committed the crimes and that he was present and played a role as an accessory. But the lawyer quickly noticed inconsistencies in Misskelley's purported confession. Misskelley, who reportedly had an IQ of 72, changed his story several times, and only a small part of his statements was recorded. There also were issues with other details he provided, including how the victims were bound and whether the boys were raped.
