Just to clarify, my speculation about political involvement revolves around the apparent reluctance to consider TH as a suspect by LE. As late as 2007, maybe later, LE officials made statements that TH "never was and is not now a suspect" for these murders. My first major red flag about all this went up when LE made that statement after the hair evidence came out, especially since, even Gitchell in his Pasdar depo admitted, parents and close relatives are always the first suspects and should be thoroughly investigated and cleared before moving on to other suspects. The fact that JM,Jr. was interrogated and, IMO, coerced into a confession just might have been a way to deflect attention from TH. Again, this is speculation on my part, but the only way that TH's lack of even "person of interest" status makes any sense at all is that TH knows something about someone that would be damaging to political aspirations if it came out. Investigate Arkansas politics just a little and you'll see what I mean. I still believe that finding out why "Teflon" Terry is immune from suspicion is the key to finding the truth.
As to the pedophile ring, yes, I've speculated that in the past, too. I'm still not willing to completely abandon it. I base my suspicions not only on the statements from the Hicks family, which, I agree, are suspect, but primarily on the knowledge of JKM, a known pedophile, about the crime. That has always bothered me.
Pedophiles aren't gay or straight, they're pedophiles. There's a difference. There has been speculation in the past, brought again to the forefront with the Guy/Stewart affidavits, that TH is at least bi-sexual if not homosexual, but IMO, that is not part of the whole possible pedophile thing. Many pedophiles prey on their own sex and the opposite sex in equal measure. Some prey only on the same sex, some on the opposite sex, but pedophilia is not the same as being a homosexual. Pedophilia is a perversion. Homosexuality is a sexual orientation or sexual preference, if you prefer. Just wanted to clear that up.
