The Forgotten West Memphis Three is a documentary film that sheds light on the case of three teenagers who were wrongfully convicted of murder in West Memphis, Arkansas in 1993.
The film explores the controversial trial and conviction of Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley, known as the West Memphis Three, who were accused of killing three young boys in a supposed satanic ritual.
Despite lack of physical evidence linking them to the crime, the three teenagers were convicted based on coerced confessions and questionable witness testimonies.
After spending 18 years in prison, the West Memphis Three were finally released in 2011 after new DNA evidence pointed to another suspect.
The documentary highlights the injustice faced by the three teenagers and the impact it had on their lives and families.
