And if Aaron's story is true, Terry Hobbs may have been involved in homosexual activities and smoking something in the woods with other men and the boys were possibly caught watching them as they'd done multiple times. Hobbs was the stepfather of Steven Branch, one of the boys found murdered in 1993, in West Memphis, Arkansas. He most likely began to tie up one side of Stevie using a figure eight knot and then went to Michael and tied up one side of him with a square knot. If we want to understand why those boys might have gotten killed in those woods we need not look further than Aarons own statements made to police shortly after the murders. The question is, why? However, therearesuspects and there is an abundance of evidence open to the public. I believe it is because the truth had finally and for the very first time, been exposed. What the ME failed to mention, however, is that a one time act of oral sex on a child is not going to cause enough injury to a childs penis to be noticeable. It would explain SO MUCH about how Hobbs flew under the radar. I allege that Terry tied up one side of Stevie and then told either Buddy or LG to finish doing the other side. ALRIGHT DID CHRIS AND MICHAEL DID THEY TELL YOU THAT THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD GOT CAUGHT. RIDGE OKAY, THATS WHAT IM GETTING TO, BUT YOU HAVE BEEN THERE ON OCCASION WITH BUDDY? He dropped by the other parents home at the first chance he got, made an appearance and a statement that implied hed been out looking for the kids. (source) Additionally, a roommate of Richards also testified that LG was not at their home on the 5th but that he remembered LGs mother calling looking for him. He will take it to his grave but some people in the town know and I'm not sure why he isn't and wasn't under more suspicion. I just find it amazing that she let this slip out and the police never even caught on. There are so many rumors, lies and blatant ignorance surrounding this case. However, like I said, he makes what I think is a pretty good case for Hobbs' guilt, too. Who fed Stevie if not Terry? After the boys wrestled, the men offered them more marijuana and whiskey. And he said he was out riding his bike that his grand paw had bought him. I allege that he ordered the three to tie up the boys and explained that they should all be tied up in the same manner. Not until it was learned that Terry was using Jacoby as an alibi and that a hair that was found at the crime scene turned out to be consistent with Davids DNA. Also, we dont know if the four men were already well acquainted. 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. It really wasnt too difficult to do, at least for some of it. Pam concedes on one condition: Stevie must be home by4:30 or he will be grounded from his beloved bike for two weeks. The new evidence establishes that the last person who had custody of the three boys before they vanished and died was Terry Hobbs. Whats peculiar is that Michael Moore was somewhat further away from Stevie and Chris, and that the location of the bodies was actually around 20 feet south of the suspected murder location. Even if he maybe didn't intend to kill him, I'm sure he started to beat him and his rage just got the best of him and there was no turning back. CHRISTY, I WAS TALKING TO A GIRL NAMED CHRISTY AND SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE THOUGHT THEY HAD FOUND ONE OF THE BODIES. David Jacoby claims that Terry showed up and the two played guitar for an hour, which also doesnt add up when you know all the details. RIDGE: OKAY, DID YOU SEE THEM THE DAY BEFORE THEY GOT KILLED ? This is a theory about what could have happened the night of May 5, 1993. That hair was then secured to Michaels body as Terry tied him up. Michael was later stripped, perhaps so he would not stand out. I think those questions have easy answers. SO WHAT HAPPENED NEXT? It puts all questions to rest. This would be something he could rationalize and also something that would anger him. 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. How about his fucking alibi, oh wait, the dudehe claimed him as an alibi thinks he did it. LGs whereabouts that night are equally suspicious, if not more so. Also, although this may seem insignificant, Anthony Hollingsworth, LGs cousin, made a statement in May of 1993 that LG acts like he is gay. In truth, this theory would finally explain and clarify, really,why the boys had animal hair on them if they were pulled from the water. I believe that when LG asked to be dropped off at home Terry refused. Ive been trying to bridge what Peretti said happened with what the defense experts said. Keep in mind as well, that the Flash Market/Landromat on Ingram was only a few minutes drive away from the Byers home on 14th. Crime scene footage of the pile of boards. My opinion is that Terry wanted to humiliate the boys becausehefelt humiliated when the boys caught him involved in a sex act with other men. I allege that the two perpetrators, Jacoby and Hobbs, entered the water and began to submerge the boys deep in the mud in order to keep them from floating. Jared: When they [the police] met you at the restaurant, was it just closer to meet you there as opposed to going to the neighborhood?, Hobbs: Thats where we called them from, so we knew they would be coming up somewhere near there.. RIDGE: ALRIGHT. Terry claims to anyone and everyone who has asked about that night, that he was almost frantically searching for Stevie from 5:00pm-9:00pm at night. The truth of what really occurred on May 5th, 1993 has not been completely solved and no suspects have been arrested. ~It appears the boys *were* punched.. at least a little bit. I theorize they then cleaned up the blood from Chris injuries by scraping up the mud, grass, leaves and blood and throwing it into the drainage ditch. The question, however, is why wasChrisdegloved and not the other children? In 1993, he was married to Pamela Hobbs and was the step father of Stevie Branch. Well, the alleged confessions from Buddy and LG finally answer that question. The three little boys referenced in the declarations were found brutally murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas in 1993. The question whether the mark on Stevies left eyebrow is a bite mark or not has been the subject of great debate by experts and followers of the case for years. (Charlotte Bly interview). Terry Hobbs was born in 1958 and grew up in Northern Arkansas. : the alleged confessions of both Buddy and LG, Terry saw the boys spying and ordered the other three men to catch them. I believe that after Terrys attack on Stevies face, and with Stevie still quite conscious, this is when the tying of the children began. 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. My question is this: If you are of the opinion that the WM3 are guilty, how can you be sure? Privacy Policy. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. When police finally did ask Buddy where he was the night of the 5th, he claimed that he barbecued with his family and then brought over some barbecue chicken to Jessie who ended up not being there. THEY WERENT SCARED THAT MAYBE SOMEBODY HAD SEEN THEM IN THERE ONE DAY?AARON: UH-UH (NO), BECAUSE THEY NEVER SEEN US. This not only puts Buddy in Lakeshore at the possible time that Terry Hobbs and David Jacoby could have shown up, but it shows that his whereabouts were unknown at the time the murder occurred. (1) When Stevies autopsy was performed, a partially digested green-vegetable like substance was found in his belly. Before I further explain and explore all the evidence that points to Terry Hobbs, David Jacoby, LG Hollingsworth, and Buddy Lucas being the perpetrators of this murder, I would like to reiterate something: there is almost no possibility that one person could have committed this murder alone in the timeframe it occurred. Hobbs, who had previously been under the police scanner for the murders because of inconsistencies in his story, had later been cleared of any wrongdoing but found himself being verbally abused by Byers in front of cameras outside a courtroom. David Jacoby was never interviewed either. However, the police knew LG was lying to them and yet his DNA, hair and prints have presumably never been tested against those found at the scene. The purpose, according to FBI profiler, John Douglas, was to humiliate, demean and control. Misskelly later recanted and claimed he was tired, ready to go home, and said what the detectives wanted him to say. The boys probably promised to meet up in a bit and Chris headed home. She described all three of on them on bicycles although they were only on two. In the autopsy reports, it, As noted earlier, the autopsies revealed that Michael was quickly incapacitated with a few defensive wounds to the hands, which implied to the Medical Examiner that Michael. Anyone who has owned a dog, knows how dogs will lick blood clean in a matter of minutes. These boards were right next to the clubhouse which means that when the boys were caught, they most likely would have been caught very close to where these boards lay, easily seen to the naked eye. Additionally, Michael Moore was tied on one side of his body using a somewhat complicated knot, called a Square Knot. This is a final note Id like to make. Before I continue, its important to bring up the alleged homosexuality of Terry Hobbs, which , in my opinion lends credence to the entire theory. RIDGE: WITH THEIR MOUTH, WHERE THEY HAVING SEX WITH THEIR MOUTH? The clubhouse was a spot where Aaron, Chris and Michael would go play in the Blue Beacon Woods. NO, UM I WENT DOWN TO THE MOORES HOUSE TO SEE TODD AND DANA MOORE AND YOU KNOW JUST TO SEE YOU KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND UM, TODD ASKED ME VICKIE DO YOU THINK MAYBE AARON KNOWS WHERE THEIR AT? Jacoby knows something. Is there any other reason why hed admit on national television that he lied? As the men submerged the boys, I believe the two teens took the bicycles to the bayou where they dumped them on the north side of the pipe bridge. Its also interesting that Narlene is claiming that Damiens mother is lying about Damien being with her. And why would Narlene have any need to lie for LG if he was innocent? I met Terry Hobbs through a mutual friend, Roy Taylor. 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. This could have given him ample time to clean the area. In his first interview, taken shortly after the murders, he claims he went home in the early afternoon but then changes his story and puts himself in Lakeshore at 4:30. WAS IT LIKE EVERY DAY OR ONCE WEEK OR JUST FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES YOU SAW IT HAPPEN? So, according to Aarons mother, Vickie, the clubhouse, which was located in the Blue Beacon Woods, was a spot where her son often went to play and any time he was late to come home it was because he was out playing in those woods. This means that the boys had most likely arrived to the Blue Beacon Woods before the four men did, crossing over from the west side of the drainage ditch to the east side of the drainage ditch, on a log that lay across the ditch at the south end. If Terry was truly involved in a homosexual act directly before this attack took place, it makes sense why he would carry out an attack of this nature on Chris genitals. 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. Hobbs was sentenced to six months in prison for aggravated assault. What are the chances that boys would act out the way homosexual men have sex, in addition to one of them saying they watched homosexual men have sex, and it not be true? AARON: YEAH (YES) WILL WE ALWAYS. They then went and dumped the boys bicycles into the bayou, cleaned up the area and left by dark. It's sickening because I think everyone forgets the innocent boys that will never have justice. To me, this shows that Michael was not conscious or struggling when he was stripped naked and because of that, his clothes were more gently removed. Before I summarize what the Guy/Stewart affidavits reveal, Id like to summarize the statements made by Aaron Hutchinson in his first two interviews. He said, you seen him coming down the street, I said, yes L. G. and I am not lying for him. By the time Buddy would have been dropped off at Lakeshore and the other three arrived in West Memphis, it could have been somewhere around 8:15-8:30. Friday, January 20th 2012. The kick, along with the humiliation of being spied on, would have made Terry snap because he did not stand for any kind of disobedience. Just finished the trilogy and West of Memphis and I noticed something that made THE lightbulb off about him. When Aaron Hutchinson spoke about the clubhouse, he referenced the boards numerous times. This is significant because no one else has ever theorized that Chris was actually bitten in his scrotum; its a completely new allegation. RIDGE: OKAY. http://www.myfoxmemphis.com/story/21810828/new-allegations-surface-in-the-west-memphis-3-murders. 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? As Brent Turvey wrote in his profile of the criminal, the man who perpetrated this act against Christopher is a closet homosexual who carries shame about his homosexual tendencies. Terry Hobbs was reported missing from Kinard on April 20, but his family said the last time anyone. Hobbs was the stepfather of Steven Branch, one of the boys found murdered in 1993, in West Memphis, Arkansas. This is just more evidence to support the statements from Stevies family that he was being abused by Terry.). Sometime after 5:00 Stevie then told his friends he really needed to go home and so they began to head back that way. 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. The question about Terry having a drug dealer name Ray could also possibly be significant. HE SAID WE WENT THERE EVERYDAY BUT WOULDNT GO ON FRIDAY AND I TOLD HIM WHY HOW DO YOU KNOW FRIDAY? RIDGE: ALRIGHT, AND HES BEEN FOUND THERE BY YOU SEVERAL TIMES? It is clear to many experts that the left side of Stevies face had been bitten by turtles. If the boys had their bicycles with them, which I believe is very likely, that means Stevie and Michael would have been quickly caught whereas Chris, who had no bicycle to push, would have gotten caught a bit farther away. (1, 2,) He originally claims to have asked his aunt for a ride home, that she said no, and he left and began to walk home. Additionally, there is an ample amount of evidence, in my opinion, that Terry might have sexually abused all of his children. I think its likely that Terry took the board with him as well to dispose of later or had it thrown in the bayou. When LG was later questioned by police about who exactly had dropped him off, he claimed that he had borrowed Richards car that night strictly to go to the Laundromat and get his cousins phone number. AARON: I THINK THEY WAS WATCHING THEM MEN LIKE LIKE WE ALWAYS DID, AND THEY THEY GOT CAUGHT, AND THEN THEY NEVER TOLD THE MEN, AND THE MEN SORTA KILLED THEM. This lends credibilty to the theory that Stevie did in fact go home, and even ate some dinner. Right as this happened, Terry, who was their neighbor, called to Stevie to come home. I really wonder if Aaron did see something, at a previous date. Hobbs, with the help of an author, put all that journaling into a book about the 1993 murders of his stepson Stevie Branch, and Branch's friends Michael Moore and Chris Byers. RIDGE OKAY, WHEN HE LEFT DID HE TELL SOMEBODY WHERE HE WAS GOING? David claims a little black girl told them the boys were heading to the woods. Did TH kill Stevie to "get even" or was it just his rage gone too far? I allege that LG was confronted by his parents because of some evidence that pointed to his guilt, and when caught, LG told them that Damien had committed the murder and he that had only helped them in some small way. Which is right in line with why this attack would have occurred. When you realize that LG and Buddy were most likely above the ditch, handing the boys bodies to the two men, you can begin to see exactly what a difficult task this was if done alone. AND THAT WHITE TANK TOP MAN. It wasnt until the following day when clothes began to emerge from the water, that police found the bodies. I admit that when I first read the alleged Buddy/LG confessions I was skeptical. His father, Joe Dean Hobbs, was a minister at the Apostolic Pentecost Church. Even the autopsy report shows that. Douglas believes the act was meant to dominate, control, humiliate and punish. She drove him around that day to help him find a job. Terry is an absolute sadist, psychopath and was never properly investigated, and I know The Hobbs Family Secret is true, possibly The Puzzle. In fact, in 2012 the animal hair found on the boys bodies was tested; revealing that the animal hair was from both canines and felines. This gave the men 2 and a half hours to let off some steam and possibly drink and get high. Therefore, it was likely that the person who either killed or tied Michael up, was carrying a knife. This means that they were not free to sit at a computer all day and wade through reams and reams of public evidence to know all the details of the case. Cookie Notice Thats a time bomb. Further, I have another theory why the crime scene appeared so clean. They happen to not agree with all of his interpretations. With what we know about Stevie and how much he feared Terry, it seems impossible that Stevie would have been the child who kicked Terry. AARON: THEY WOULD UM, THEY WOULD WIPE EACH OTHER LIKE UM, LIKE UM, LIKE THEY DID UM TO MICHAEL, CHRIS AND STEVE THEY SAID. I remember when the news broke and sitting in my living room floor crying and holding my new daughter I have read, watched and researched as much as I could throughout the years. AND I TOLD HIM, YOU KNOW WHAT WHY DIDNT YAWL LEAVE WHY DIDNT YOU COME HOME, WERE YOU SCARED? One of the most vital components of this theory is whether LG and Buddy had alibis for this night. I still think about it regularly. This is most likely when Stevie asked Terry if he could continue riding bikes with his friends. To add further suspicion, LGs cousin, Domini lived within a five minute walk from Richards house. Chris had bruises on his inner and outer thigh, indicating that he WAS held down and his legs were held apart. This theory supportsbothsides of the debate. We can assume this because of the 6:00/6:30 sighting from the service road. Memories of events are easy to remember, specific times when events occurred are much more difficult to pinpoint. He systematically destroyed every member of his family, traumatizing them with years of extreme sexual abuse/grooming and beatings. Maybe because sheknewLG was involved and he told her that Damien did it. I believe he wanted to punish them because he faultedthemfor spying. The teens wouldnt have minded being asked to wrestle initially and its even likely they would have removed their shirts to do so (especially if LG was wearing a shirt and tie at this time). You may be the judge of the that. What purpose would there be to strip the boys naked? I allege that Terry came home right after 5pm and Stevie was headed to the house at this time. In the second statement, Narlene describes to police a conversation she had with LG outside of the police station right before a police interview. He actually was able to get his friend and aunt to lie for him in order to protect him. ALRIGHT DID CHRIS AND MICHAEL DID THEY TELL YOU THAT THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD GOT CAUGHT. i.e: wrestle. Especially considering how extremely rare it is for a victim to be tied in this manner. So that would prove that there are only two reason why Jacoby would lie to protect Hobbs: its either because he participated in the murders himself or he knows Hobbs did it and he has known it for many years. Jackie Jr. Hicks came to the Hobbs' residence after he was informed of the encounter. It isnt difficult to assume that Terry was told by his parents for most of his life that homosexuals were sinners who were going to hell. RIDGE: ALRIGHT, YOUVE BEEN TO YOUR CLUB BEFORE WITH THEM? Since Jacoby knew that Hobbs was with Pam at 9pm, he clearly meant that Hobbs had left for the two hours that Jacoby had previously claimed they were together. According to Terrys ex wife, Terry Hobbs first wife had claimed in their divorce papers that he molested their son. Stevie promises and the boys leave. But there also had to be an injury there to begin with. Pam Hobbs divorced Terry Hobbs in 2004 and has reversed her position on the West Memphis Three's guilt. David Jacoby is the key to this case. In my assessment, it speaks volumes to the guilt of Terry Hobbs that the children were tied up in the same manner as hogs being prepared for transport and that two of the children were tied up using square knots and figure eight knots, the same knots used by farmers and butchers. Several years back there was a rumor that one of TH nephews said he was in a room with TH, DJ and some others as they smoked weed and did some things to each other sexually. Why was he lying? The only conclusion I could see from everything is that Hobbs is clearly a narcissistic pedophile. Is there any possible reason why they wouldnt have stopped? No. Buddy also knew Billy, so he, too would have told Terry to go by Billys. RIDGE: SO HOW ABOUT DO YOU KNOW STEVE, DID HE EVER GO DOWN THERE WITH YOU? Pam begins making dinner and getting ready for work (source). And even if he did work the day of the 5th, its the late afternoon/night that is important. Left: Buddy Lucas Right: LG Hollingsworth. LG was actually a suspect from the very beginning, and its actually really shocking to me that he was not further investigated. What stands out to me, is that no one has ever suggested before that the injury to Chris began as a bite. LG never mentioned whether he was dropped off at home or not, but I have a theory about what happened next, which I will now describe. "He would have been a heart breaker if. (1, 2) According to Jamie and her family, the three boys were playing in her backyard and then flew out onto the sidewalk and headed towards the Hobbs home. It was only then that Jacoby publicly admitted that Hobbs had left for two hours that night. Experts for the defense have claimed it is a bite mark and experts for the prosecution have claimed it isnt. Why didnt Terry search for Stevie at the Moores? Why was shesosure, in her mind, that Damiens mother was lying about being with him all night? WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY WHEN YOU GOT OUT OF SCHOOL WHAT WAS IT THEY WERE GOING TO DO THAT DAY? I also believe the mutilations to Chris Byres was pure turtle predation, as well as Stevie's facial injuries. He then told the others to Get them, fuckers! RIDGE: THE ONE IN THE WHITE SHIRT DOES HE LIKE TO BOSS? According to both Billy and Bennies statements, the four men pulled up to the trailer, bought a small amount of marijuana and left. He also confirmed that one of the teens, Buddy Lucas, had admitted to his involvement in the murders with the other three men. Ok, now kiss. At 8:42, officer Meeks was dispatched to another call and left. I think we have the answer now; Stevie and Chris appeared to have been tortured because they were the ones who were conscious. Terrys own daughter allegedly told family members, including her mother, grandmother, cousin and aunt that she had been abused by her dad and two family members even claimed to have walked in on Terry abusing his daughter.
