.. width="425" height="350" ...... width="425" height="350" ....During the trial, the jury had basically made up its mind and seldom even paid attention while important testimony was being given. For example, when the fact that there was no blood at the crime scene was being discussed, we saw jurors doodling and playing hangman on pads of paper; they obviously weren't listening.By -Bruce Sinofsky ___________________________________________________________I don't know.By -Christy VanVickle, one of the 'softball girls,' in response to questioning about what Damien said before and after his supposed 'confession'Source:Echols/Baldwin trial testimony ___________________________________________________________T hey were under a lot of pressure. They had to find somebody to lay this off .. people started losing their jobs. The public was getting real upset saying the cops were incompetent, couldn't do their jobs, so they had to do something fast. And we were like really the obvious choice because we stood out from everybody else. So it worked out to their advantage.By -Damien Echols, explaining his perception of why the West Memphis police targeted them ___________________________________________________________W e would like to see Damien Jason and Jessie given new trials – this time based on concrete evidence, actual facts and substance – instead of rumors, prejudice, superstition and what amounts to a modern day witch hunt. We would like to see a real proper investigation to determine who really did kill those three children.By -Winona Ryder

We need to give kids more credit. They know what’s facetious and entertaining. They know that just because a person sings about killing and drugs or whatever, that doesn’t mean that that’s what their life is all about. And just because a person listens to Metallica, that doesn’t make him a murderer.By -Eddie Daly/Spaghetti ___________________________________________________________I went and visited Damien in this little God-forsaken place, this prison, he's on death row, and everyone was treated like dirt there. ... I was ready for that, but the oppression's really heavy. And Damien's in there.By -Eddie Vedder ___________________________________________________________I f this kind of insanity is allowed to happen in America, then no American is really safe. To do nothing is to submit to this horrific slander of truth and basically join in with the perpetrators.By -Henry Rollins ___________________________________________________________T hese boys didn’t get a fair trial. They got picked for wearing black clothes and having long hair. I am fundamentally opposed to the death penalty, and as Lenny Bruce said, In the halls of justice, all the justice is in the halls. Perhaps, a jury is composed of twelve men and women of average ignorance. and a judge is a lawyer who once knew a politician. In our system of justice, the best client for a lawyer is a scared millionaire. The worst thing in our criminal justice system is to be broke or different.By -Tom Waits
