So, here is my theory of what happened. A Calhoun County man has been missing for weeks now, leaving his family searching for answers. My theory is that Stevie finished dinner and took off with Michael again to find Chris, and Terry and Amanda then headed over to the Jacobys home. : the alleged confessions of both Buddy and LG, Terry saw the boys spying and ordered the other three men to catch them. I learned from Roy Taylor that Mr. Hobbs was bisexual. Even Peretti agrees that there was injury to the groin area AFTER death. Wednesday May 5th 1993, was no different than other typical day in West Memphis Arkansas. This too, may have further contributed to the injuries on the left side of his face. The reason for this is that is that there is an abundance of evidence that shows the three are innocent and at the same time, there is some circumstantial evidence that shows they may be guilty. Even worse, Terry claims that he had arrived at Jacobys already searching for the boys, while David claimed that Terry arrived with the boys behind him in the street and apparently told David that he was allowing them to play until dark. One of the mysteries of this crime is the location of the bodies in the drainage ditch. This would have been the only way they could have crossed without falling into the water. RIDGE: OKAY. His alibi for the night of the murders was shaky (the friend he says he was with says he left for a while) and he acted strangely towards his wife when he went to pick her up from work, walking past her and not saying anything, just calling the police to report the boys missing. In LGs interviews of what he did that afternoon, he repeatedly contradicts himself. I believe that when LG asked to be dropped off at home Terry refused. My only guess is that they already had their sights set on Damien at that time. WE ALWAYS GOT A PLACE TO HIDE BEFORE THEY CAN GET THERERIDGE: WHERE DID YOU HIDE?AARON: WE HIDE ONE TIME WE HIDE BEHIND UM A TREE. I hear you. Another indicator that points to Terrys guilt and the truth in the alleged Buddy/LG statements, lies with what was discovered on Michael Moores body. ~Even Peretti agrees that Chris had post mortem wounds in his groin area as well as pre mortem. RIDGE: WHAT DID THE CLUB HOUSE CONSIST OF? Those partially digested vegetables not only prove the long held belief that the boys died around 7pm, shortly after being seen, but that Stevie most likely ate those vegetables right near 5:00 pm. Apparently, the medical examiner stated that the fine scratches on Stevies penis are similar to those from children who have sexually abused, i.e: given oral sex. They had been stripped naked, hogtied and beaten. However, this was never corroborated by police. 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. First of all, something led the perpetrators to get into the water. Some details of this timeline are facts, corroborated by multiple sources, other details are merely theories of what may have taken place on the evening of May 5th, 1993. Additionally, there is an ample amount of evidence, in my opinion, that Terry might have sexually abused all of his children. Aaron adds a few more details to what the boys had seen down in those woods: RIDGE: UM, DO YOU THINK THOSE MEN WERE CRAZY? Why didnt Terry search for Stevie at the Moores? and our I admit that when I first read the alleged Buddy/LG confessions I was skeptical. Remember that LGs own mother was looking for him that night, despite the claim that he was allegedly dropped off at her home. I know there was a warning but the warning wasn't clear enough. After an altercation with his wife, Pam Hobbs, wherein he reportedly hit her, he shot his brother-in-law. Mark Byers stated that Terry arrived at his home sometime after Meeks left. In 2007 it was discovered that a hair that had been found underneath a ligature on Michael Moores nude body, belonged to Terry Hobbs. It puts all questions to rest. I believe that their bias came into play when they claimed that, just like they claimed Chris drowned even though they admitted he died before he was put in the water! Right as this happened, Terry, who was their neighbor, called to Stevie to come home. The bottom line is very simple: Terry, David, LG and Buddy all liedabout their whereabouts that night. . West Memphis Police Officer, Bryn Ridge found Michael Moore first, just south of the crooked tree that juts out from the ground in the photo on the far left. NARLENE: She meant the mommy, the daddy and the son,(LG) she said I dont know whats going on over there and she said, they are making me nervous, shes a christian girl, she said and I got out of there, I said yeah, I get bad feelings around them too. -5:00 Terry Hobbs drops Pam off at work and returns home What happened next is a theory supported by evidence and interviews. 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. As they were riding around the street, Terry and David drove by on Barton (Barton would have lead them directly out of the neighborhood, taking them to 7th street which leads up to Lakeshore) and David saw them in the street. RIDGE: IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNING OR LATE AT NIGHT OR LATE IN THE EVENING? Ive been trying to bridge what Peretti said happened with what the defense experts said. I believe as David dragged Chris with him back to the others, he picked up one of the boards that lay in the open nearby. Mark took Chris home, spanked him for being in the middle of the street and not waiting at home, told him to clean the carport and left him there cleaning at 5:30. He did not tell me who he was calling, and he did not tell me that Stevie was missing, Pamela previously told investigators. When police asked Dixie if the car that LG was spotted in was Richards, she too, vehemently denied it, stating that she knew Richards yellow car well, and this wasnt it. VICKIE: ANY TIME MY CHILD DIDNT COME HOME ON TIME THATS WHERE I WOULD LOOK FOR HIMRIDGE: OKAY, YOU HAD BEEN THERE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS? CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO ME WHERE THE CLUB IS? 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. One of them even went up and knocked on the door and spoke to Michaels sister, Dawn. Within a week of that delivery, I also delivered marijuana, cocaine, and crystal meth to Mr. Hobbs in Memphis, Tennessee, on Madison Avenue at a gay bar called J-Wags. The attorney for convicted killer Damien Echols says DNA evidence proves he is innocent and he's demanding a new trial. If the bikes had been found immediately, then the focus would have very quickly zeroed in on the people who were last with the victims. For one, LGs other aunt saw him at her work at approx. At the time of the murders, LG was only 19 and spent most of his time with an unmarried man who was in his 50s. These two are pretty clear, I think, especially with one coming from his parents. After the murders of the three boys, the general understanding by the public was that Chris had been emasculated and very meticulously had had the skin removed from his penis. Misskelly later recanted and claimed he was tired, ready to go home, and said what the detectives wanted him to say. They had contusions, which are bruises, which had to have happened before death, on their ears, under eyes, over eyes, on forehead, etc. But there also had to be an injury there to begin with. The Hobbses are the mother and stepfather of Steve Branch, who. It breaks my heart and I thought about it for 3 weeks straight after I got into the case. (1) When Stevies autopsy was performed, a partially digested green-vegetable like substance was found in his belly. I believe that inhismind, the boys deserved what they got because they shouldnt have been spying. She has since expressed her belief that her ex-husband was involved in the murders, citing the discovery of her son's favorite pocket knife in Terry Hobbs' belongings. (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. Allegedly, some children who used to play in those woods have claimed that stray dogs lived there (source). Sorry in advance to those of you who are tired of reading about this case! Terry Hobbs was working for the Memphis Ice Cream Company. He actually worked in a slaughterhouse. The Blue Beacon Woods was connected to the Robin Hood Hills which was the last place the three boys had been spotted on the night of the 5th. Not even Damien, Jason or Jessie had any of that happen to them, and they were the ones who were falsely arrested for the crime. hobbs is high on my list, but with what we know (or lack thereof,) there's simply no way to say anyone is "for sure" guilty in this case. According to Michaels autopsy report, the injuries to his head support the belief that he was hit with something that had a relatively sharp edge that caused three lacerations to the left side of his head. Allegedly, Terry Hobbs told the boys he was going to teach them a lesson. Additionally, approximately a month before the murders, a friend of Chris Byers brother claimed to have seen Michael and Chris with their pants down, simulating a sex act in the exact way that homosexual men preform sex; one boy was standing up and bent over and the other boy was standing behind him and they both had their pants down. RIDGE: HAVE YOU BEEN THERE BEFORE? The truth of what really occurred on May 5th, 1993 has not been completely solved and no suspects have been arrested. I rewatched the paradise lost docs and in the last one, just before the murders, Pam had "kissed a Mexican" and Terry said that years later when he brought on the lawsuit with Natalie Maines. According to known evidenceStevie and Michael went to the Byers right around 5:30, which in my opinion was right after they left the Hobbs home. Sometime around 2pm the day of the 6th, Stevie, Michael and Chris were found murdered in a drainage ditch filled with water in the Blue Beacon Woods. According to Pams family, Stevie was terrified of Terry. Facebook. 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. When police told him they were going to polygraph him about Jessies alleged confession, Buddy immediately admitted that he had lied; Jessie never said anything to him about the murders. Who would have fed Stevie vegetables if not his own parents? He also claimed that Jessie said he had punched a couple in the back of the head. Which means that when Natalies lawyers dug into Terry Hobbs past, there were obviously some people who made similar allegations to the ones Billy made 4 years later. The reason for this is because LG lived very close to both the Byers and the Moores. I believe I ask where Steve was ask. No. According to Terrys ex wife, Terry Hobbs first wife had claimed in their divorce papers that he molested their son. If the purpose in stripping the boys was to demean and humiliate them, then Terry would have wanted them to be conscious while he did it. The only person whose DNA would be in that ligature isthe person who tied the knots, Echols said. RIDGE: ONE TIME, WERE THEY, WERE YOU ALL WATCHING THE FIVE MEN DOWN THERE THAT TIME WHEN HE WENT WITH YOU? The four men beat the boys, tied them up and threw them and their clothes into the ditch of water. The two men were looking for weed and asked the boys if they knew where to find some, or in other words, they wanted to know which drug dealer was currently holding. A and B represent Chris and Michaels home and the C on the map on the right represents Stevies home. AARON: THEY WOULD UM, THEY WOULD WIPE EACH OTHER LIKE UM, LIKE UM, LIKE THEY DID UM TO MICHAEL, CHRIS AND STEVE THEY SAID. What Buddy said was shocking. He claimed that along with his cousin Rex Heath, he gave Jessies dad the barbecued chicken and went home. Have you ever have you ever sexuallypropositioned David Jacoby? 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. 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? The new documents. Either way, its awfully peculiar that there is a question that implies something sexualabout the nature of Terry and Davids relationship. An attorney for one of the victim's mother dropped the bombshell in court today that she believes her ex-husband Terry Hobbs took part in the killings. The question about Terry having a drug dealer name Ray could also possibly be significant. I recall a man was outside across the street working in his yard. I believe the clubhouse was mainly a concealed spot where the boys played. In the second statement, Narlene describes to police a conversation she had with LG outside of the police station right before a police interview. RIDGE: ALRIGHT, YOUVE BEEN TO YOUR CLUB BEFORE WITH THEM? I learned about this case 3 years ago. In fact, the very first place that he and Pam looked before Pam went to work was Michaels house. The only reason one could think that someone would make the concerted, and possibly dangerous, effort to take the bikes up to the bayou to be submerged, was to give themselves time to create an alibi. According to Clemente, suspects who have something to hide, such as evidence, or signs of abuse at the home, will not want police to search their residence and will attempt to put distance between themselves and where the abuse took place. VICKIE: ANY TIME MY CHILD DIDNT COME HOME ON TIME THATS WHERE I WOULD LOOK FOR HIM, RIDGE: OKAY, YOU HAD BEEN THERE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS? But what absolutely cannot happen is that 1 cop having his reputation, career, family, and future be staked on the guilt/innocence/fortitude/silence of that dick-lover Terry. 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.
