Wouldn't a normal person say "embarrassed", maybe? The boys probably promised to meet up in a bit and Chris headed home. Police Officer Regina Meeks had been called to Mark Byers home at 8:10 and filled out a police report for the missing children with both the Byers and Dana Moore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Memphis_Three, http://callahan.8k.com/images/500/1/150.jpg. Terry did not tell me who he was calling until hed completed the phone call and came out to the car. Due to the possibility that they wiped these items on their skin, I believe Terry would have taken those items with them when they left. Why didnt Terry search for Stevie at the Moores? thanks for the recommendation!! Why was shesosure, in her mind, that Damiens mother was lying about being with him all night? I allege that one or all of them took the underwear and socks, wet them in the water and used them to wipe blood off themselves, off the board and any other weapons used in the murder, as well as to wipe up blood at the scene. If she really didnotsee Damien on the road that night (which shedidnt) why was shesosure that Damien was not with his mother? They then picked Chris up (as evidence shows) and the three headed out on their bikes and skateboard, riding up 14th street right before 6pm. ~Stevie had bruises on the back of his hands, indicating he put up a fight. Perhaps. RIDGE YOU DIDNT GO OVER THERE THAT DAY? This theory was supported by police who were at the crime scene. He was one of four children and came from a strict and religious family. If Echols is successful in court, the DNA testing process will likely take months. [1]. The question, however, is why wasChrisdegloved and not the other children? Buddy also knew Billy, so he, too would have told Terry to go by Billys. What stands out to me, is that no one has ever suggested before that the injury to Chris began as a bite. UM, AND I WENT UP AND TALKED TO MS. MOORE AND SHE GOT AARON OUT OF CLASS. RIDGE: IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING OR LATE AT NIGHT OR LATE IN THE EVENING? What they discovered was a very organized, catalogued and intact body of evidence, a group working on the case previously wrote. I am not scared of that boy. They were so sure that the murders were part of a satanic ritual done by teenagers, and were so desperate to make sure that Aarons answers revealed that, that eventually Aarons statements began to get more and more fantastical and implausible. Problem is, many of the things he says about him are also true for the WM3, at least Damien. I met Terry Hobbs through a mutual friend, Roy Taylor. The DNA used for comparison purposes was taken from cigarette butts obtained from an ashtray. Unfortunately, the police had such tunnel vision about the reason why they believe the murders had occurred and who they believed the perpetrators were, that they basically ignored what Aarons statements really revealed; they unwittingly lead Aaron away from helping them find the true killers. RIDGE: DOING NASTY STUFF, WHERE DID YOU SEE THEM DOING THIS STUFF? Ill let you be the judge. The removal of the clothes was a very significant act. 3 A. Shortly after this, Terry Hobbs noticed that the three boys were spying on the men. Sometime right after 5:30, according to the Byers, Chris took off again from his house. I dont feel it was an actualclubhouse. hobbs is high on my list, but with what we know (or lack thereof,) there's simply no way to say anyone is "for sure" guilty in this case. (1) When Stevies autopsy was performed, a partially digested green-vegetable like substance was found in his belly. It is my opinion that the answers to many of the questions of what happened that night, will be answered here. RIDGE OKAY, THEN HE WAS AT LAKESHORE AND LEAVING TO GO SOME WHERE? I allege that all three men returned to Terrys home and cleaned themselves up, which most likely involved washing mud off their shoes. 2, 2019 at 4:53 PM PDT. SO WHAT HAPPENED NEXT? In 1993, he was married to Pamela Hobbs and was the step father of Stevie Branch. I believe the clubhouse was mainly a concealed spot where the boys played. He flipped flopped between being at home with his mother and being at his friend Richards house from 5:30-9pm. When the boys were found, along with their clothes the following day, there were two pairs of underwear and 5 socks missing from the crime scene. Apparently, Stevie had injuries to his penis that he believed were self inflicted. This is a theory about what could have happened the night of May 5, 1993. According to Michaels autopsy report, the injuries to his head support the belief that he was hit with something that had a relatively sharp edge that caused three lacerations to the left side of his head. Yet, when Jared asked about the evidence possibly being tested in the future, Hobbs said he was against testing anything else and as far as he was concerned, the case was solved when Echols, Misskelly, and Baldwin were arrested. Also, according to LGs aunt, Dixie, LGs mother, Linda, came to her work the next day asking where he had been the night before. Additionally, a bite on the face during murders/attacks is not only common in homosexual attacks, like a bite to the scrotum is, but it also common in Battered Child Syndrome. Terry Hobbs was reported missing from Kinard on April 20, but his family said the last time anyone. Which is right in line with why this attack would have occurred. I wonder if Michael and Chris knew that one of the men was Stevies stepdad and that is the reason they never told Stevie what they saw in those woods. Lastly, Stevie branch apparently told his cousin that Terry was molesting him and Amanda. Just finished the trilogy and West of Memphis and I noticed something that made THE lightbulb off about him. In the autopsy reports, it was concluded that Michael was swiftly and violently attacked and was likely unconscious for almost the entire assault on the boys. ! Retired FBI profiler, John Douglas, as well as profiler Brent Turvey both believed the entire attack was punitive in nature and that the perpetrator was teaching the boys a lesson for either a real or percieved transgression. And even if he did work the day of the 5th, its the late afternoon/night that is important. Not only did they not ever contact the Echols defense team in search of a deal for their help, Buddy Guy didnt send his letter to the prosecutor till the WM3 were out of prison. golden age crime fiction conventions . Why in the world were the two men (or Terry alone) searching for the boys when it was light out if Terry had already said that Stevie could stay out till 8:00 pm? Now newly released evidence implicating Terry Hobbs has Pam Hobbs raising her own doubts about the man she once trusted. I also believe that at some point during the attack, Stevie was hit on his leg by the edge/side of the board, and also possibly in his face, which I will discuss in a moment. 92.According to L.G., Mr. Hobbs snapped and hit the boy with severe force in the head two or three times. RIDGE OKAY, DO YOU REMEMBER SPECIFICALLY WHETHER YOU MAY HAVE GONE OVER TO JESSIES ON THAT DATE? Todd Moore, father of victim Michael Moore, found the evidence against Hobbs unpersuasive. My opinion is that Terry wanted to humiliate the boys becausehefelt humiliated when the boys caught him involved in a sex act with other men. LG, as well, had raised some suspicions himself by carrying on an unusual relationship with a much older man. It means its likely that he never went home. Jacoby knows something. I was almost 21, a new mom and lived just across the bridge, in Memphis when the murders happened. This too, may have further contributed to the injuries on the left side of his face. Echols specifically wants the shoestrings used to tie up the victims to be tested at a California lab that utilizes new technology to extract DNA from evidence. A and B represent Chris and Michaels home and the C on the map on the right represents Stevies home. After they wrestled for a bit, Terry told them to stop and called them over to drink and/or smoke more. A certain kind of way. WHAT I THINK HAPPENED TO THEM. When you look at the evidence as a whole, it is quite clear and truly undeniable what really occurred that tragic day. The legal troubles of Terry Hobbs and John Mark Byers I dont believe when Terry first saw them that he intended to kill them. Hobbs was the stepfather of Steven Branch, one of the boys found murdered in 1993, in West Memphis, Arkansas. (Interestingly, Chris was referred to as the 3rd child in the alleged confessions. The problem with this statement is this: for one, Jacoby claims he asked Terry where Stevie was. In part 3, when suing Natalie Maines, he said he wanted The Dixie Chicks to be "humiliated" as punishment when asked what he really wanted out of the lawsuit. According to Billy Stewarts statement, he believes that at this time some sexual activity occurred between the men and two teens. And the reason he was never questioned was because being a dude who was into dick in Arkansas in the 90s wasn't okayespecially among cops. He then told the others that all three had to die for what they had seen. The fact that David Jacoby said that he saw all three boys and one was riding on a skateboard, means that Davidreally didsee the boys at some point that day. The children never returned home. And if Aaron's story is true, Terry Hobbs may have been involved in homosexual activities and smoking something in the woods with other men and the boys were possibly caught watching them as they'd done multiple times. WHAT DID IT SMELL LIKE DID IT STINK? RIDGE: ALRIGHT. I allege that Terry came home right after 5pm and Stevie was headed to the house at this time. A few pages prior, he writes "Damien and Jason had no indicative violence in their pasts, and while Jessie was known for a hot temper, he channeled his aggression into pursuits such as wrestling." RIDGE: OKAY. New DNA testing by the defense shows that none of the genetic material recovered from the murder scene links Echols, Baldwin, or Misskelley to the scene. VICKIE: IT WAS COPSRIDGE: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT DEAD ON? Cookie Notice Lastly, even David Jacoby, friend to Terry Hobbs, testified that when Terry arrived at his home at 5:30, he asked Terry where Stevie was. Terry is an absolute sadist, psychopath and was never properly investigated, and I know The Hobbs Family Secret is true, possibly The Puzzle. And, allegedly, David was the one who caught Christopher, so I believe the first person who was attacked was Michael. I think its open to interpretation. Video footage of the crime scene also shows the boards: AARON: YES SIRRIDGE: OKAY. Apparently, there was a bank near the ditch that appeared to have been slicked down and cleaned off to the point that there was no grass or leaves at all in that one area. According to David Jacoby, he and Terry drove down Barton street searchingfour separate times, passing Michael Moores home each time. Furthermore, in the alleged confessions, Terry states: The bodies cant be found, at least not yet.. I'm digging into this right now. To corroborate this letter, Byers and Hicks lawyer and investigator contacted Bennies friend, Billy Stewart. From 6pm on, he had left his skateboard in the street and hopped on the back of Stevies bike. Though the family was well-to-do, Terry was having financial problems when the three children were murdered in 1993. The teens wouldnt have minded being asked to wrestle initially and its even likely they would have removed their shirts to do so (especially if LG was wearing a shirt and tie at this time). If Terry truly had bitten and stabbed Chris scrotum, it would explain perfectly the questions around Chris death. The way the three boys were tied, wrist to ankle, as opposed to wrist to wrist, ankle to ankle, is one of the most unique aspects to this case. VICKIE: HE STAYED. "[4], In November of 1994, more than a year after the murders of the three children in West Memphis, Hobbs again experienced trouble with the law. But the deeper I dug, the more I realized that not only was there no evidence to discredit that these four men committed this murder, all the known evidence supports the notion that they actually did do it. Twitter. OKAY AND AH I SAID SO YAWL WENT THERE EVERYDAY. They had contusions, which are bruises, which had to have happened before death, on their ears, under eyes, over eyes, on forehead, etc. Stevie Branch was also tied with a less common and more complicated knot on one side, a Figure Eight Knot. LGs whereabouts that night are equally suspicious, if not more so. Rather than rush inside and tell Pam that Stevie was missing along with two of his friends, he walked right past Pam to the phone, called police and filed a missing person report. An attorney for one of the victim's mother dropped the bombshell in court today that she believes her ex-husband Terry Hobbs took part in the killings. RIDGE: ABOUT TIME WAS IT YOU WENT TO TRY AND GO TO THE CLUB HOUSE? The kind of men who do these things are, uh. Now Im back to believing it was TH. I believe that when LG asked to be dropped off at home Terry refused. When Aaron Hutchinson spoke about the clubhouse, he referenced the boards numerous times. What really stands out to me, is that farmers and hunters use this method of tying a hog arm to leg in a method called hobbling. Each boy had indications of being punched because the contusions did not have deep lacerations with them. When Terry arrived at Pams work, he did something very peculiar. Why was Terry 18 minutes late picking Pam up? RIDGE: THE ONE IN THE WHITE SHIRT DOES HE LIKE TO BOSS? RIDGE: ALRIGHT, WHEN YOU SAW THESE FIVE OUT THERE IN THE WOODS AND THEY WERE DOING THESE THINGS THAT WERE BAD OKAY WAS THIS AT DAYTIME OR WAS IT NIGHTTIME?AARON: IT WAS BOTHRIDGE: IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING OR LATE AT NIGHT OR LATE IN THE EVENING?AARON: IT WAS, WHEN EVER WE GOT OUT OF SCHOOL WE WENT THERE ABOUT FOURRIDGE: OKAYAARON: AND THEY NEVER GOT THERE BEFORE WE DIDRIDGE: YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE FIRST. Court documents reveal new details in the case of the "West Memphis 3" After ending his first marriage, he wed Pamela Hicks Branch in 1986, when her son Stevie was almost 2 years old. YOUVE SEEN THE CLUB HOUSEVICKIE: UH-HUH (YES) I HAVE SEEN IT SEVERAL TIMESRIDGE: ALRIGHT, AND HES BEEN FOUND THERE BY YOU SEVERAL TIMES? Two of the childrens clothes were found inside out, implying that they were very quickly ripped off, and most likely ripped off of boys who were still moving. For me Hobbs did it. Another interesting bit of information that Aaron tells police is that not only did Stevie not ever join the others when they watched these man having sex in the woods, but that Chris and Michael told Aaron not to tell anyone what they had seen, including Stevie, who was one of their best friends. He walked into the restaurant and went directly to the payphone. It remains unsolved in the minds of those who feel the West Memphis Three defendants are innocent. Its not so much what the boys saw by itself, but what they saw coupled with Michael kicking Terry. However, she drove a small four door car and there would be no room to pick up her sister if she already had six people in her car. Hobbs was calling loudly at the children and ordering them to return to his house. JMB really did love them even though he had a temper and did admit to corporal punishment. Billy was merely contacted to corroborate the letter, which he did. Is it merely a coincidence that Terry Hobbs was a former butcher and that he grew up working on his familys pig farm? AARON: UH-UH (NO), BECAUSE THEY NEVER SEEN US. Even worse, Terry claims that he had arrived at Jacobys already searching for the boys, while David claimed that Terry arrived with the boys behind him in the street and apparently told David that he was allowing them to play until dark. Some details of this timeline are facts, corroborated by multiple sources, other details are merely theories of what may have taken place on the evening of May 5th, 1993. If Terry had dropped LG off at 8:45, he could have arrived at the Byers by 8:47 pm, just about the time that Mark Byers testified he arrived. Further, there is some belief that part of the injury to Stevies penis was also a bitemark. THEY UM. And for two, David claims to have seen the three boys in front of his house at 5:30 when he opened the door to let Terry and Amanda inside. 'West Memphis Three' case: John Byers, suspect and stepfather - MEAWW A rather uncommon knot for a regular person but a very common knot for a former butcher or farmer. It has baffled people for years because there was no evidence that the boys were sexually assaulted. With advancements in DNA testing, hopefully we will soon know exactly whose DNA this very small sample belongs to. In his first interview, taken shortly after the murders, he claims he went home in the early afternoon but then changes his story and puts himself in Lakeshore at 4:30. The reason for this is that is that there is an abundance of evidence that shows the three are innocent and at the same time, there is some circumstantial evidence that shows they may be guilty. He believed that the men, this time, saw the boys spying and killed them. If anyone might know where the boys were going or what their plans had been for that day, it would most likely have been Aaron. This is when Jamie would have remembered seeing Terry out on the sidewalk calling the boys home just as they would have shot out onto the street from her house. When questioned later by police, he claims that on the day of the murders he was heading out to meet up with Jesse Misskelley at his Lakeshore trailer but never met up with him. Why was he lying? If he was correct about the drug dealer, he could have correct about the other allegations. I know that all the experts agree that Michael was unconscious while he was tied up but I dont know about Stevie.. As he jumped up from the fall, he grabbed Chris and apparently hit him with force as well. During a special presentation at CrimeCon 2022 Las Vegas, former New York State prosecutor Jim Clemente joined Truth & Justice podcast host, Bob Ruff, and investigative journalist, George Jared, to take a deep dive into a conversation Jared previously had with Terry Hobbs. He also confirmed that one of the teens, Buddy Lucas, had admitted to his involvement in the murders with the other three men. That leaves many years unaccounted for. Also, Chris and Michael told Aaron never to tell Stevie.

In order to have a deeper understanding of what happened, we must start at the beginning. 9pm by his aunt, and lastly, remember the very obvious lie Narlene made, and even convinced her two children to make,on the standabout seeing Damien and Domini on the service road.. What that may mean is that the last known place that LG was seen was Lakeshore Trailerpark. Either way, its awfully peculiar that there is a question that implies something sexualabout the nature of Terry and Davids relationship. I have recently taken a huge interest in this case, and found that there is misinformation literally everywhere. Hobbs, who had previously been under the police scanner for the murders because of inconsistencies in his story, had later been cleared of any wrongdoing but found himself being verbally abused by Byers in front of cameras outside a courtroom. SIDEWAYS AND WE GOT IN OUR CLUB HOUSE. Since Jacoby knew that Hobbs was with Pam at 9pm, he clearly meant that Hobbs had left for the two hours that Jacoby had previously claimed they were together. BLY HE WAS SUPPOSE TO GO MEET JESSIE MISSKELLEY OUT AT LAKESHORE. Actually, Buddy and LG are theonlytwo people in twenty years of suspects and allegations that had family member come forward and say that they had blood on them following the murders. He said, you seen him coming down the street, I said, yes L. G. and I am not lying for him. There was evidence to suggest that Aaron was telling the truth about the clubhouse because wooden planks were in fact found and collected by police. He was also a minister in the Apostolic Pentecost Church, a fundamentalist group. According to the ME, Chris did not drown like the others, he died before entering the water. Now what did LG have to hide? Expelled From Law School, Dad Convicted of Mom & Brothers Murder. I know there was a warning but the warning wasn't clear enough. Also, the sister who caught Hobbs washing laundry in the middle of the fucking night! JMB is a freaking nut but I think he loved Michelle so much that when Chris died, she did, too. In other words, he was likely being molested. The reason why Chriss skin was removed but his penis remained, i.e. I have a very strong suspicion that Narlene lied about dropping LG off at home and there is ample evidence to support this. When the boys were eventually discovered the next day, not only were they discovered hidden under water, but their clothes and bicycles had all been submerged as well. What is stranger, and in complete contrast to what was previously said, David also claims that he and Terry were out searching the streets for Stevie before dark. She claimed to have seen the two walking as she was on her way to pick up her sister from work but there are serious problems with her statement. WE ALWAYS GOT A PLACE TO HIDE BEFORE THEY CAN GET THERERIDGE: WHERE DID YOU HIDE?AARON: WE HIDE ONE TIME WE HIDE BEHIND UM A TREE. He later changed that story and claimed she told them they were at some apartments. 8 A. In recent years its been discovered that someones DNA was on Stevies penis. What are the chances that boys would act out the way homosexual men have sex, in addition to one of them saying they watched homosexual men have sex, and it not be true? I believe it was because Stevie was hit repeatedly on the left side of the face by LG. Terry Hobbs, the stepfather of another one of the murdered boys. So, here is my theory of what happened. This means that by the time the four men would have attacked, stripped and tied up the boys, it would have only been somewhere around 7:30 at night. THEY WERENT SCARED THAT MAYBE SOMEBODY HAD SEEN THEM IN THERE ONE DAY? 7 Driver? You will see that this theory is supported by many statements, interviews, affidavits and even includes the alleged confessions of Buddy Lucas and LG Hollingsworth. Its intriguing, however, that Buddys statements were, He just held them while the others killed them, And, He hit a couple in the back of the head. Was Buddy really speaking of his own participation in the murders? thirty minutes to clean up the crime scene before it got dark. For the rest of the night the families, neighbors, friends and police search for the boys. WE ALWAYS GOT A PLACE TO HIDE BEFORE THEY CAN GET THERE, AARON: WE HIDE ONE TIME WE HIDE BEHIND UM A TREE.

YEA IT WAS BUT, I WOULD THINK SO, IN ORDER TO HOLD ALL 3 LITTLE 8 YEAR OLDS THAT IT WAS PRETTY STURDY. After doing so, they most likely would have walked down south in the ditch till the water was the deep enough and also not directly beside the crime scene. SO THIS FRIGHTENED ME, SO I GOT AARON OUT OF THERE AND WE WENT HOME. When Narlene was interviewed she claimed to have dropped LG off at his home. This is just more evidence to support the statements from Stevies family that he was being abused by Terry.). Additionally, they would have focused on someone who lived in West Memphis and knew the Blue Beacon Woods well. THEY WERENT SCARED THAT MAYBE SOMEBODY HAD SEEN THEM IN THERE ONE DAY?AARON: UH-UH (NO), BECAUSE THEY NEVER SEEN US. Left: Buddy Lucas Right: LG Hollingsworth. Despite this evidence, no charges have ever been brought against Hobbs, who still firmly believes that Echols, Baldwin, and Misskelley are guilty of the . I believe that David did ask Terry where Stevie was when Terry showed up at 5:30 and that Terry told him the truth: Stevie was riding his bike and would be back by dark (8pm). When you realize that LG and Buddy were most likely above the ditch, handing the boys bodies to the two men, you can begin to see exactly what a difficult task this was if done alone. 5 A.
