Paradise Lost II: Revelations (2001)

Director: Joe Berlinger, Bruce Sinofsky

Premise:
Five years after convicted being for the brutal killing of children, their West Memphis Three have gained lost of media noterity and people wanting a retrial due to lack of evidence. And there are still many who say the verdict was just.

My Take:
The circumstances surrounding the case become even more interesting as the years have passed. Witnesses keep popping up who claim the boys had nothing to due with the murder. And free legal councils search for an appeal. Then there is one of the victim's parents, John Beyers, who's wife has now died under mysterious causes and is racking up trouble with the law, not to mention it feels like he he playing up the camera every time it's one him. This is still a fascinating court case and the continuation of their saga causes intrigues.

Rating: In the middle
