News: Free the Three!
I recentrly watched a movie about how three teenagers got implicated in a murder case. As it turns out, in 1993, there were three boys murdered in West Memphis, AK. Three boys were arrested in connection with these murders. The only pieces of evidence for their guilt: They dressed in black, listened to Metallica, dabbled in Wicca on occasion, and one of the teens was named Damien (born before The Omen unpopularized the name Damien). There was no DNA evidence supporting their guilt, and there was no evidence that any of them would have even done something to that extent. Even after defending those habits which got him implicated, and refusing to back down from the Satanic Panic at work, the three got convicted. The Satanic Panic itself should be an indicator of their innocence. There have been many incidents of Satanic Panic (mostly centred around Reagan-era preschools) in the world since the Inquisition ended in around 1834 (it had tapered off before that, but then was the official end), and virtually all of them have simply been proven to be blatantly false accuastions over the years. In the meantime, their guilt has been contested over the years (even by the victims' families, but not by the police force), and there is going to be a new trial soon in light of new DNA evidence showing that there is virtually no DNA of the "killers" on the murder weapons. Until the time cones when they reach a "not guilty" status, I must say "Free the Three!"
Band NAme of the Day: Gothic Cartoon of Evil. From a CAP report on the movie Natural Born Killers as evidence of "wanton violence" in the movie.
Film Idea of the Day: Murder Will Out. In Georgian England, two young girls discover that while the people of their village are dropping like flies, a sociopathic farmer and War of 1812 veteran may be behind the murders. After he is finally caught and sent to Bedlam, they seek to off him themselves. They fail.
Film Review of the Day: Paradise Lost. This was the film I had watched. This may be just as good a crime documentary as The Thin Blue Line was. Sure, it shows no revealing "This crime must not go unpunished, so let's punish these people we found" (not the actual words used in the film) statements like TBL did, but it shows how obvious the innocence of the West Memphis 3 was.
Quote of the Day: " Well I object to all this sex on the television. I mean I keep falling off."
