But as soon as they demonstrated their disregard for the victims by gratuitously flashing video of the children's naked corpses across the screen I figured they weren't the people to be learning about the case from.
I had heard vague references to "West Memphis Three" for years I guess. Can't pinpoint when I first heard the phrase. Feel bad saying it, but I didn't pay any attention to it. In one ear, out the other. Paid so little attention, I just assumed "West Memphis Three" was some rap group or something. Just gave it that little thought. Was actually on here maybe a year or so ago when someone mentioned the case in a different case thread and that got me to looking for the case on Websleuths. Read a couple posts, determined the very basics of the case and that there was a question as to who was responsible. Instead of reading more posts or threads, I decided to read the documents on callahan's to form my opinions from the raw documents instead of someone's posts here. Didn't watch any of the documentaries until some time well after that. It wasn't until I posted here that I quickly, and I mean quickly, found out how polarizing this case is and just how difficult it is to have a rationale discourse regarding it because both sides can be so entrenched in their views.
As for the documentaries, that is why I quoted you kyle. I couldn't agree more. I find it very distasteful and even cringe here when I see the photos here. Of all the people involved in this case, for some reason, whenever I see those pictures, I picture Dana Moore viewing the pictures we're posting (or in the movies) and picture how she'd react to them. Breaks my heart and makes me cringe.
I hope she never comes here or anywhere else that discusses this case.
