This is going to be a hard one to hear. Today, we will continue the dive deeper into the West Memphis Three case. Part 2 will cover the investigation and sentencing of the defendants in the case of the tragic demise of 8 year olds: Christopher Byers, Michael Moore, and Steve Branch in May of 1993. In this part we will do our best to cover everything from the start of the investigations, through evidence and interviews, and the trials of the defendants. We also wanted to take this time to introduce you all to the defendants and their trials and subsequent sentences.
