Hi everyone.
I'm new here. The first time I ever heard about the WM3 was about 4 weeks ago. I live in Germany and the 5 films (Including Devil's knot) have never been shown or mentioned here. I came across "West of Memphis" and was absolutely schocked and speechless!! So I have become another "victim" who will have to spend hours on end, reading and thinking about the whole shocking thing!! Yesterday I took a look at the "Terry Hobbs interview" from 2007 (youtube). I haven't watched all of it yet, but this part of the interview made me feel very uneasy. It's at about 33 min.
Mr. Hobbs was asked if there was anything that was unusual or odd on the evening as he was searching the Robin Hood woods.
"Nothin other than that I wouldn't have been out here, this is not a place I hang out..you know."
"We were told at one time, there was something that covered up a hole or something, and they thought they might be in that hole, some of them local kids that knew where that place was at, said they'd go and check it. I think there was a Byers boy the one that was alive,... there's another alive..... I can't think of his name, but he was gonna go with some of the people that was there.
It seems to implicate that he knew that Chris Byers was dead at the time. Of course the interview was 14 years later, you can give him the benefit of the doubt that he just changed from past-present tense, to present tense, but in the context it feels a bit strange.
