I would love to see this case put together from the beginning. From the start with real investigative eyes, minus the sensational satanists track or the bias toward Damien because he was different. I would love to see a REAL investigation of this crime.
My feeling is if that was done.. TH would at least have to be tried considering the hair that connects him directly to the crime.
Yet you've just proclaimed the entirety of Misskelley's many confessions both coerced and false, and you're far the only one to do so. Do you not consider that presuming to be sure of something? As for fibers, there were some fibers identified at the trials as consistent with sources from Baldwin and Echols' homes and which have been disputed since then, but no actual analysis of those fibers is publicly available for us to consider that evidence for ourselves.And those were clearly false/coerced confessions. I don't think supporters are "sure" of anything either.
Yeah, the blood on the pendant was discussed at a trial hearing, and it was actually two different blood types, but as you noted it's a dead end.The blood on the pendants could have either matched Jason or one of the victims. At that time they could only tell the blood type. Unfortunately all the samples were used so it can't be tested again for DNA.
There's plenty we'll never know regardless of who ever confesses to what extent, and any crime can remain a mystery by casually disregarding the confessions which have been made and the evidence which corroborates them.I think there are things we will NEVER know unless someone Really confesses.
Rather, that argument was discredited the closing arguments of Misskelley's trial by citing his initial confession:I only discredit the confessions because Jessie didn't even know what time the crimes took place. He only came up with the right time AFTER it was told to him.
Have you not read those closing arguments, let alone read and listened to Misskelley many confessions which you so casually disregard?In regard to time, and it was somewhat pointed out this morning in Inspector Gitchell's testimony -- there's an interesting statement in here by the defendant. He's saying this noon stuff and nine o'clock in the morning and all that. On page 12, and listen to this. When you get back there, again, make sure that you ask to listen to the tape, and get it to this spot, and you'll look and you'll see that nobody had said anything about, "Hey it happened at night" or anything like that. And you're gonna hear Jessie say, "Well, after all of this stuff happened that night, that they done it, I went home about noon." Absolutely makes no sense at all. But you'll hear those words come out of his mouth. Is it because we got somebody that doesn't have any concept of noon? It's not words put in his mouth. That's not anything from a question that was asked to him. Those are his words. "Well, after all of this stuff happened that night." Was that some kind of a slip? Why did he say that? He's the one who first says about it happening that night.
I see no reason to conjure up such lists when there's plenty actual documentation of what people have done to consider.Reasons why somebody might give a false confession:
The blood on the pendants could have either matched Jason or one of the victims. At that time they could only tell the blood type. Unfortunately all the samples were used so it can't be tested again for DNA.
I'm curious about what other evidence there is. Most days I really am a fence sitter and other days I think that the 3 are innocent. That's why I like to hear from both sides and not just hearing,"go look at callahans!!" Or, "they plead guilty!!" Etc. I think there are things we will NEVER know unless someone Really confesses.

BBM unless that is one of the convicted right? As long as that's not Damien I think Damien and Lori will make more excuses that supporters will believe because they're so invested in the innocence of the WM3 (so even if Jason or Jessie confessed .. again, it would be denied by many). I think even if Damien confessed some people would point to his mental health record and say he was deluded or messing with folks at this stage.
Do you realize you've only linked one recent article from a student run law journal, but claimed both "law schools and law journals" in the plural sense as fact? And how exactly do you figure most of the world has even heard about this case, let alone feel they know enough about it to formulate an opinion on Misskelley's confessions?In short, the Jessie Lloyd Misskelley, Jr. "confession" is used in law schools and law journals as an example of a false or coerced confession. So, IMO, those who continue to deny that fact are simply being either stubborn or stupid.
. . . and some people will continually deny the validity of any information that points to the real killer. As I've often said, some people would deny the veracity of a video if one surfaced showing the murders and plainly showing the killer to be someone other than Damien, Jason and Jessie.

What's worthless is claims regarding complex matters such as the veracity of confessions from those who go around in circles refusing to even acknowledge the well documented fact that Echols lived in West Memphis at the time of the murders.Jessie's confession is more worthless than the paper it's written on.
