The Forgotten West Memphis Three

There is much new information, and many personal updates since the making of Paradise Lost(1996) and Paradise Lost 2(2010). * * * * * * POTENTIAL SPOILER FROM FIRST 10 MINS OF PROGRAMME!!! * * * Most obviously, that the accused were released in 2011. There are also post-release interviews (one off camera), with all three released men. The progress of DNA Validation/dismissal/discovery of witnesses. and so many other things that i can't mention without literally giving spoilers.

As for the 'host' who as a trained fire investigator, with proven skills as a crime investigator, is more than just a host. He speaks coherently and passionately to camera. Nor does he use jargon that would exclude the audience, when he consults with fellow crime/investigation professionals.

Of course, much of the media and court footage has been seen before but it is impossible to avoid showing this if one is to tell the story from beginning up to the current point - 2019. However there is much new footage, and often the older footage was used in a different context - if you watch then you will see what i mean.

No new facts added, no extra light shed on the incident. Just a charmless, unlikeable guy covering old ground whilst occasionally going "wow" like he has just uncovered some sort of case breaking fact

As someone who has seen all the documentaries about this case, I can confidently say that this is the worst of them all. It gives "0" new information about the case. The "investigator" person keeps going over the obvious facts, treating the audience as morons with an IQ of a pigeon. He hypes you up about this new technique which can give more accurate DNA evidence and could shed light who the murderer can be throughout the whole 2 episodes, and in the end, he can't even get it done! I honestly suggest you to watch any other documentary thats done about the West Memphis Three than this crap. Watching some fishes in an aquarium would have been more entertaining.

This is worthless. It feels like the guy who calls himself an "investigator" and claims he is going to try to finally find some real answers enjoys it a little bit too much to be in the spotlight himself while talking about how much he cares. 90% Of this documentary is old information, the rest is the guy talking about how he is going to finally do things right (hinting at how bad it was previously done, which is only partially true and mainly counts only for the West Arkansas police force and the prosecutors). I kept watching because I feel like only then I can truly make a claim on how good a show is, and I also couldn't help but stay curious until the end about whether there were going to be any new revelations, but no.

Terry Hobbs. If you look at all the various documentaries about this case that have him walking to and from with his weeping wife at the time take a close look at his face. Not a single tear in his eye at any point that he's been questioned or even in a shot. When I look at that man I see no emotion at all, a trait of a sociopath. In my opinion he's guilty. DNA evidence supports it, it's just the state of Arkansas does not want to admit what a huge fu@k up this was. We can only hope the next DA has a heart and allows re-examination of evidence.
