Episode Details

In part 3 of our West Memphis Murders series we focus on the time period after the arrests- June 1993 to jury selection for Jessie's trial in January of 1994. We hear from the Paradise Lost filmmakers, the families of the accused and include exercerpts from both Damien and Jason's books as well as clips from Paradise Lost and Devil's Knot as we gain a broader understanding of the work private investigators like Ron Lax and the public defenders appointed in the case did in preparation for trial. We end the episode with a conversation with Brooke's dad, The Honorable Judge Fisher and hear his perspective on Satanic Panic and this case.
