Billy Morrisette of Dillinger Four and Mike Robertson of Quincy Punx recently recorded a podcast discussing the West Memphis 3.
The West Memphis 3 are three men tried and convicted for the murders of three children in the Robin Hood Hills area of West Memphis, Arkansas, United States in 1993. Damien Echols – the alleged ringleader – was sentenced to death. Jessie Misskelley and Jason Baldwin were sentenced to life in prison. Many believe the arrests and convictions were a miscarriage of justice and that the defendants were wrongfully convicted during a period of intense media scrutiny and so–called "Satanic panic".
Among the topics are plans for an upcoming benefit CD featuring cover tracks of originals from Quincy Punx. All proceeds from the sale of this future double record will be donated to the defense fund for the West Memphis Three.
