Defense Offers New Evidence in a Murder Case That Shocked Arkansas

Defense Offers New Evidence in a Murder Case That Shocked Arkansas, N.Y. Times, Oct. 30, 2007.

In 1994, three teenagers were convicted of killing three 8-year-old boys in a crime that was alleged to have been related to a Satanic cult. Now new evidence may give the defendants another chance: none of their DNA was at the crime scene; the bodies apparently were mutilated by animals, not the killer(s); hairs at the scene belong to the step-father of one of the victims and a friend of his.

Thanks: Maureen Howard.
