WM3 Set Free

August 19, 2011

The West Memphis Three will go free after 18 years of unjust incarceration. They were convicted of murdering three young boys in 1993 based on a retracted confession by one the three who was told he would get the electric chair unless he confessed. The confession was retracted quickly and there was no physical evidence linking the three teens to the murdered toddlers, but they were convicted anyway. Fundraising by advocates for the WM3 including Henry Rollins led to recent DNA tests that found no DNA link between the teens and the murdered toddlers. Thanks to everyone who tirelessly pushed for justice over the last 18 years.
