They then went and dumped the boys bicycles into the bayou, cleaned up the area and left by dark. The day after the boys went missing before they were even found, Michael Moore's parents asked Aaron's mother, Vickie Hutchinson, if Aaron could be removed from school to help find the boys. The purpose, according to FBI profiler, John Douglas, was to humiliate, demean and control. After he removed his clothes, he ripped out one shoelace from Michaels shoe and cut it in half with his knife. http://callahan.8k.com/pdf/de_dnamotion3_30_11.pdf. When Jessie was fully investigated by police, it never once came up that Jessie was with Buddy that night. 1. I've gone down this rabbit hole time and time again. This would make the Ballard sighting of 6:30 next to impossible if not impossible, considering the boys were found in those woods and the time of death was most likely 7pm. HE SAID NO, THERE, YOU KNOW YOU CAN TELL WHEN YOUR CHILD IS LYING AND IT WAS LIKE HE KNEW SOMETHING WAS UP. ! Retired FBI profiler, John Douglas, as well as profiler Brent Turvey both believed the entire attack was punitive in nature and that the perpetrator was teaching the boys a lesson for either a real or percieved transgression. My suspicion is that LGs parents knew he participated in this crime ( I will touch more on this later) and Narlene, being LGs aunt, probably had some limited knowledge of his participation, too. Terry admitted himself that he whipped Stevie and by Amandas own account, Terry was a violent man who left welts and bruises on her when he hit her. Everybody said that Damian, I know that hes suppose to have 666 on his shoes. 2 Q. Had LG engaged in sexual activity with Hobbs and Jacoby prior to this day? And that alone should give us all pause. I wonder if Michael and Chris knew that one of the men was Stevies stepdad and that is the reason they never told Stevie what they saw in those woods. Additionally, why would LG go down to the Laundromat at approx. He walked into the restaurant and went directly to the payphone. LG never mentioned whether he was dropped off at home or not, but I have a theory about what happened next, which I will now describe. So although at least some experts said the boys were not punched, I dont believe thats true at all. AARON: I THINK THEY WAS WATCHING THEM MEN LIKE LIKE WE ALWAYS DID, AND THEY THEY GOT CAUGHT, AND THEN THEY NEVER TOLD THE MEN, AND THE MEN SORTA KILLED THEM. According to David Jacoby, he and Terry drove down Barton street searchingfour separate times, passing Michael Moores home each time. Stevie also appeared to have a footwear impression on the back of his head; meaning that Stevie was likely kicked or stomped at the end of his attack. The ME noted the extremely pale look of Chris skin as well as the lack of water in the lungs, and it was clear to him that he had bled to death. NO, UM I WENT DOWN TO THE MOORES HOUSE TO SEE TODD AND DANA MOORE AND YOU KNOW JUST TO SEE YOU KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND UM, TODD ASKED ME VICKIE DO YOU THINK MAYBE AARON KNOWS WHERE THEIR AT? SO THIS FRIGHTENED ME, SO I GOT AARON OUT OF THERE AND WE WENT HOME. However, I do believe that this was Terrys murder and he controlled it. VICKIE: I REALLY COULDNT TELL THAT. Just as the stripping of the clothes and the bites and stabs to groin; it all suggests a sexual element to this crime. Furthermore, the time the boys were seen doing this is also around the time that Aaron Hutchinson claimed they had first seen the men in the woods. They lived only a few blocks from each other after all and LG already had a suspicious relationship with an older man. I have a very strong suspicion that Narlene lied about dropping LG off at home and there is ample evidence to support this. Terry Wayne Hobbs was born on May 21st, 1958. He was most likely placed near the tree becase one of the perpetrators used the tree as support in order to enter the water. (Narlene Interview) Additionally, she lied about seeing Damien and her niece, Domini walking away from the crime scene sometime around 9:30 the night of the murders. And if Aaron's story is true, Terry Hobbs may have been involved in homosexual activities and smoking something in the woods with other men and the boys were possibly caught watching them as they'd done multiple times. Here is a timeline of how events may have unfolded that day. Where do you get all this from? What people forget is that we dont knowwhosaid that Terry propositioned Jacoby. A certain kind of way. When they returned the four men continued to submerge the boys clothes with sticks and, finally, hastily threw the last items of clothing in the water as it grew dark. The children never returned home. In fact, Richard and his roommate both admitted that they didnt even see LG that night. In 2011, Jamie Ballard, her sister and her mother came forward when they discovered that Terry Hobbs claimed to have never seen the boys on the 5th. He told police that Jessie had confessed to him and that he said that he had just held the boys while the others killed them. The men most likely entered the Blue Beacon Woods from the field that was located to the east of the woods. In Billy Stewarts statement, Terry had another drug dealer named Roy Taylor. RIDGE: FIVE TIMES YOU SAW IT HAPPEN FIVE TIMES? After ending his first marriage, he wed Pamela Hicks Branch in 1986, when her son Stevie was almost 2 years old. One mystery that has plagued people who have followed the case, is why it appeared that Stevie and Chris were tortured while Michael was not. It really wasnt too difficult to do, at least for some of it. She claimed to have seen the two walking as she was on her way to pick up her sister from work but there are serious problems with her statement. That 1 cop cannot be subjected to the stigma of liking dick. Before I continue, its important to bring up the alleged homosexuality of Terry Hobbs, which , in my opinion lends credence to the entire theory. transfer betterment to vanguard. Either the perps knew the possibility of the bodies floating with time, or, the area where the bodies could be dropped in was not deep enough to completely hide them. These statements have protected Hobbs for seven years. Although I have gone into great detail describing how this murder took place, in reality, the experts believed it would have only taken around 20 minutes to carry the murder out. In other words, he was likely being molested. This would be something he could rationalize and also something that would anger him. Its difficult to know all of Narlenes reasons but I have a feeling about one of them. RIDGE OKAY, THEN HE WAS AT LAKESHORE AND LEAVING TO GO SOME WHERE? Shortly after arriving home, Terry was out in his driveway with Amanda, saw the boys outside Jamie Ballards home and called them to come to the house. VICKIE: IT WAS COPSRIDGE: WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT DEAD ON? David Jacoby claims that Terry showed up and the two played guitar for an hour, which also doesnt add up when you know all the details. Catch them! When the teens brought the boys back, one of them kicked Hobbs which sent him into a rage. If Terry truly had bitten and stabbed Chris scrotum, it would explain perfectly the questions around Chris death. A bitemark on Stevies face would lend credibility to the statement that another bite occurred on Chris genital area. Terrys own daughter allegedly told family members, including her mother, grandmother, cousin and aunt that she had been abused by her dad and two family members even claimed to have walked in on Terry abusing his daughter. What this shows us is that Jacoby knows the truth. Then, I believe that Terry began to attack Stevies face by biting him and even possibly striking his face with the corner of the board. (source) LG had been job hunting that day and was likely wearing a shirt and tie for his interviews. YOUVE SEEN THE CLUB HOUSE, VICKIE: UH-HUH (YES) I HAVE SEEN IT SEVERAL TIMES. AARON: I THINK THEY WENT DOWN THERE. This could mean that Terry could have arrived sometime between 8:45 and 9:00pm. Especially considering that they are remembering this event 18 years later for one, and for two, there were multiple sightings of the boys from 6pm-6:30 on the street beside the woods, quite a ways away from the Hobbs home, as well as the woods themselves. Essentially, the statements made by Dr. Perretti are not much different than if Pam took her son to a doctor, had him examined and was then told by the doctor that Stevie had injuries related to sexual abuse. I really wonder if Aaron did see something, at a previous date. This gave the men 2 and a half hours to let off some steam and possibly drink and get high. Even the autopsy report shows that. Todd Moore, father of victim Michael Moore, found the evidence against Hobbs unpersuasive. Even if the dogs had not licked up blood, their presence in the woods could mean that their fur would have already been on the ground where the boys bodies were placed when discovered. Furthermore, it is highly unlikely that anyone other than Terry Hobbs and David Jacoby committed this crime and Ill briefly explain why. It breaks my heart and I thought about it for 3 weeks straight after I got into the case. Jamie Clark Ballard, who lived only three doors down from Terry and Pam Hobbs, has supplied a sworn affidavit, as have both her . I dont know. By rejecting non-essential cookies, Reddit may still use certain cookies to ensure the proper functionality of our platform. Now why would Narlene go to such lengths to lie and basically accuse her niece and her neices boyfriend of murder? If you read this report, it discusses threats Damien made against his parents, and they say they do not want him in their home because they are afraid of him and afraid of what he would do to the other children: http://callahan.8k.com/images/500/1/150.jpg. The problem with this statement is this: for one, Jacoby claims he asked Terry where Stevie was. I believe the known evidence supports the notion that Terry said yes, but that Stevie went inside to eat dinner first. RIDGE: OKAY, DID YOU SEE THEM THE DAY BEFORE THEY GOT KILLED ? After 18 months Echols was informed that the evidence was likely not available, but after a state court order, Echols team was invited to the West Memphis Police Department to review what evidence remained. AARON: MICHAEL AND CHRIS SAID NOT TO TELL NOBODY, RIDGE: UM, DO YOU THINK THOSE MEN WERE CRAZY? He also claimed that Jessie said he had punched a couple in the back of the head. The teens wouldnt have minded being asked to wrestle initially and its even likely they would have removed their shirts to do so (especially if LG was wearing a shirt and tie at this time). Neither Chris nor Michael had any facial injuries even remotely close to what Stevie had on his face. French reported that prior to the incident she had gone to the Hobbs' home after hearing what she believed to be a domestic dispute. Perhaps Stevie tried to sneak away. Its also extremely suspicious and coincidental that Dixie Huffords description of the car that dropped off LG would be so eerily similar to the car that Terry actually drove at the time and the car that he would have used to pick Pam up from work. Aaron Hutchinson also stated that the clubhouse consisted of some old boards: AARON: IN ROBIN HOOD UH, THE PLACE WHERE THE BOARDS ARERIDGE: WAS IT THERE WHERE YOUR CLUB IS OR WAS IT SOME WHERE ELSE IN THOSE WOODS?AARON: IT WAS RIGHT BESIDE OUR UM, TREE HOUSE, And in 2011, pleadings for further DNA testing of the boards that were found next to the clubhouse:http://callahan.8k.com/pdf/de_dnamotion3_30_11.pdf. If Michael had kicked Terry that could have been the impetus that pushed Terry to hit him back. This report http://callahan.8k.com/wm3/shadi.html details an incident where Damien got into a physical fight with another student and made numerous threats against him and his family. The four men see the young boys spying, one man in particular, the stepfather of one child, orders the others to grab them; he flies into a rage and hits the boys, and the attack leads to murder. And if he witnessed the beginning of sexual activity, Stevie, unlike the others, would have known that if the three of them got caught spying they all would have been killed. I agree with that assessment but believe there were additional reasons. Even Aarons mother, Vicki, supported these statements in her first interview with police. She drove him around that day to help him find a job. After Stevie was gone, he expected her to get over it right away and said she was neglecting her wifely duties. As he tied up Michael, he further demonstrated to them how to tie up the others in the same consistent manner. The reason why Chriss skin was removed but his penis remained, i.e. And even if he did work the day of the 5th, its the late afternoon/night that is important. ALRIGHT DID CHRIS AND MICHAEL DID THEY TELL YOU THAT THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD GOT CAUGHT. VICKIE: UM, WEST MEMPHIS POLICE HAD ALL OF THE AREA ROPED OFFRIDGE: OKAYVICKIE: I WENT TO THE DEAD END IT WAS YOU KNOWRIDGE: DEAD END? AARON: MICHAEL AND CHRIS SAID NOT TO TELL NOBODY. Press J to jump to the feed. (Another theory is that the injury to Stevies penis came from oral sex. My question is this: If you are of the opinion that the WM3 are guilty, how can you be sure? (source) All of these interviews and statements show that not only did LG not have an alibi, but he lied about his alibi and asked other people to lie about being with him, too. was terry hobbs ever found. If Terry was already trained in this technique, it is a powerful piece of evidence against him, in my opinion. Narlene interjected herself all over this case. And, Ill tell you something, I would take up for my kids when Ive known that they have done something, cause aint no telling what they would do. And, allegedly, David was the one who caught Christopher, so I believe the first person who was attacked was Michael. Terry Hobbs was a violent man, this is proven and well documented, and the way Douglass pictures it, he likely wanted to punish or humiliate one or all of the boys and it went too far, leading him to murder them so they wouldn't be able to tell anyone. Was there anyone else who knew how to clean up blood better than Terry did? When you realize that LG and Buddy were most likely above the ditch, handing the boys bodies to the two men, you can begin to see exactly what a difficult task this was if done alone. RIDGE: YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE FIRST. They would watch the men as they smoked marijuana and engaged in sexual activity. How could she be so off in her description of what they wore and what they looked like, if she truly did see them? And that 1 cop will know that a member of that community being subjected to questioning for a crime of this nature could lead down all sorts of paths: one of those paths being that Terry likes dick and is part of a small community that likes dick and that that 1 cop likes dick. RIDGE WHO WERE WORKING IN CONSTRUCTION WORK? One of the most vital components of this theory is whether LG and Buddy had alibis for this night. And, since Pam regularly made dinner at 4:30, Stevie knew that dinner was going to be around this time. If the cop has power, it's easy. No matter whatgreen vegetable Stevie ate, the fact that it was a green vegetable and that it was partially digested shows that Stevie had to have eaten some vegetables sometime between 5:00 and 6:30. I went back and read all the autopsy reports and attempted to interpret them. OKAY WHAT WERE THESE MAN DOING?AARON: THEY WERE UH, DOING NASTY STUFFRIDGE: DOING NASTY STUFF, WHERE DID YOU SEE THEM DOING THIS STUFF?AARON: IN ROBIN HOOD UH, THE PLACE WHERE THE BOARDS ARE, AARON: THEY, THEY DO WHAT MEN AND WOMAN DO, RIDGE: OKAY, UH, YOUR SAYING THEIR DOING THINGS LIKE MAN AND WOMEN WOULD BE DOINGAARON: YEAH (YES)RIDGE: WHEN I SAY HAVING SEX IS THAT WHAT YOUR DESCRIBING?AARON: YES SIRRIDGE: OKAY, HOW WOULD THEY HAVE SEX?AARON: THEY WOULD UM, THEY WOULD WIPE EACH OTHER LIKE UM, LIKE UM, LIKE THEY DID UM TO MICHAEL, CHRIS AND STEVE THEY SAID, RIDGE: WITH THEIR MOUTH, WHERE THEY HAVING SEX WITH THEIR MOUTH?AARON: YES SIR, RIDGE: DID THIS HAPPEN REAL OFTEN ?AARON: YES SIRRIDGE: HOW OFTEN ?AARON: IT HAPPENED FIVE TIMESRIDGE: FIVE TIMES YOU SAW IT HAPPEN FIVE TIMES? (Charlotte Bly interview). This is a final note Id like to make. [3], Terry Hobbs was 24 years old when he broke into the home of a neighbor, Mildred French. Due to the suspicion surrounding Buddy and because of his erratic behavior, Bennie Guy decided to confront Buddy and ask him if he truly was involved. Police suspected the murders of Michael Moore, Christopher Byers and Steve Branch, all second-graders, were the work of a satanic cult. At all. This would have been the only way they could have crossed without falling into the water. What is most interesting, however, is that most of the public did not know that Chris was on a skateboard at one point that afternoon. But again, why would turtles only be drawn to the left side of Stevies face and none of the other boys faces? Terry Hobbs absolutely killed the boys and the neighbor girl said he had seen them right before the boys died. Wouldn't a normal person say "embarrassed", maybe? When you look at the evidence as a whole, it is quite clear and truly undeniable what really occurred that tragic day. Ifvery conservativelyone in every 10-20 people is gay or bi, and the police force is made up of 20 people (just a fun number) one of those cops is gonna like dick. AND I SAID I DONT KNOW ILL BE GLAD TO GO GET HIM IF YOU THINK IT WILL HELP, IF YOU TALK TO HIM, AND HE SAID I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
