On the evening of December 9th, 1974 in small town Raglan Ontario, a young woman's life was unjustly stolen from her. Fatally shot in the back of the head in her very own home. That woman was Beverly Lyn Smith. You may have heard about her case on some podcast or YouTube Channel, but Amazon Prime Video created a four part docu-series in May of 2022. They, like the podcasts and YouTube channels didn't tell the full story. I will. This series is for Beverly and the family who love and miss her dearly.

I pull no punches covering Bob Ruff's Forgotten West Memphis Three series produced by the Oxygen Network. I also offer some other useful insights while heavy on the snark.
Summary of the case:
On May 5th, 1993 three eight year old boys were murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas. Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley were arrested, tried and convicted of killing Michael Moore, Stevie Branch, and Chris Byers. In 2011, they pled guilty to the crimes using an Alford Plea, yet were released from prison with time served. WM3 case files, court documents, appeals, etc: http://callahan.mysite.com/index.html
