TGF 021 The West Memphis Three: Revisited

The Guilty Files

This week on Revisited, Brian and Dani sit down to do what they do best — push each other, question everything, and dig into the case that still haunts anyone who's looked at it twice: the West Memphis Three.Three little boys murdered in 1993.
Three teenagers convicted in a rush of fear, moral panic, and bad police work. But two decades later, those convictions unraveled — and now, the lines between guilt, innocence, and justice are blurrier than ever.Brian brings the cold facts. Dani brings the bigger picture.
Together, they pull the case apart — from Jessie Misskelley’s confession to the shaky forensics, to the politics behind the Alford plea that let the West Memphis Three walk free… without ever being declared innocent.Did the justice system fail — or did it do exactly what it was built to do? Is the case closed, or just abandoned?
This isn’t about who wore black or who listened to Metallica. It’s about a town that needed someone to blame — and a truth that may still be buried in those Arkansas woods. No clean answers. Just two voices, one brutal case, and a whole lot of questions.
