On this American holiday based on misunderstood 3000 year old roots in Ireland, (TV documentary states 3000 years, The History Channel article states 2000 years), it is a good time to revisit the West Memphis 3, imprisoned for horrific murders of 3 young boys, found guilty largely on religious fear and intolerance. I’ve written more in depth on their case, if you’re interested in reading it, the post is located here.

For those of you familiar with the case, I’m reposting an article from the NY Times, the article intact with active links here:

Happy Samhain. May everyone be free to celebrate as they desire, without fear of repercussions.
