The West Memphis 3 All Crime Scenes and Graves

[@nberrypatch02]

I noticed that Christopher's mother passed away in 1996, just 3 years after he died.. Such a tragically sad situation for all.

[@rucianapollard7098]

Yes. Her manner of death was undetermined. Mark Byers, stepfather to Christopher Byers died in a car crash in 2021. Sad case all around!

[@tdenisesmith4814]

@@rucianapollard7098 Oh wow, I didn’t know or hear about his death. RIP to all involved.😢🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💐

[@clairecasey442]

It's said Melissa Byres did take different drugs. I think she died of a broken heart. Yes Mark Byers died in a tragic car accident.

[@rucianapollard7098]

@claire casey I think Melissa died of a broken heart also. Of the 3 boys, Christopher had the worst injuries! His manner of death was blunt force trauma. The other 2 boys drowned to death, but Christopher was beaten to death. For some reason, the FBI Profiler believed that Christopher was the main focus of the attacks, then Stevie Branch. It is believed that the third boy, Michael Moore, was not a target at all but was killed because he was a witness. He sustained the least amount of injuries.

[@hwoods-kg1jf]

@@rucianapollard7098 I talked to Mark once on Facebook many years ago. He seemed like a decent guy even though he's acted crazy for the cameras over the years, he finally turned around and thought the West Memphis Three (Damien, Jason and Jessie) were actually innocent and he didn't believe they were guilty anymore as he ranted and raved about for so long. We didn't really talk about the case. We just kinda BSed about life. I don't remember exactly what we talked about but I know it wasn't involving the WM3 case because I wanted to be respectful and not upset him. I was sad to learn that he had died more recently. He was also a suspect for a long time.

[@cynthiariley1782]

Thank you so much Scott for getting a hotel room and staying the night and finding Stevie's grave and paying your respects to all of these poor boys. You're a wonderful person. Such a very very sad and horrible case this is.😢⚘

I am Stevie Branch’s Aunt. Pam is 😂sister. I want to say THANK YOU!! Thank you for saying Stevie, Michael and Christopher should be considered the real West Memphis Three. Thank you for your respect on this subject and thank you for the manner in which you handled this video. Thank you from Pam and the entire Hicks family. 31 years has been a long time to not know the truth. We will never get closure even when we know the truth because it won’t bring those 3 beautiful boys back. It won’t take away 31 years of heartache and heartbreak. All I can say is that when it’s my time to go, Stevie, my brother and my parents will meet me at Heavens gate and I’ll have all the answers I need. Again, Thank you for the respect you gave Stevie, Michael and Christopher. Unfortunately, what the lady said about “be nice” people have written 666 on all the boys headstones. You were so close right before you left. I’m glad you went back. Heart shaped headstone. We wondered who left that car. God Bless you and thank you so much!! I hate there weren’t any flowers on there yet. My baby sister and I make them for every season. We saw you were there in March 2023. Our moms birthday is in March and we put them out on the 23rd of March. I’m on TikTok and you can see my balloon release and videos I have. I’m also on Facebook. You did Stevie, Michael and Christopher justice ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

If I would have heard of you then, I would have taken you out there.

I cried so much through this whole video. Not crying in a bad way. Crying because of the respect that I felt you were giving to our 3 beautiful angels. Thank you for not giving up on finding Stevie’s grave. The whole line, you showed my grand parents and to the right of Stevie, it’s my brother and my parents. The rest of the graves belong to us 5 remaining girls ❤

[@vdcjr]

@sheilamuse4560 Sheila, do you really think Terry had anything to do with what happened to the 3 boys. I know your family doesn't like Terry personally as I've read your affidavit in the Pasdar case. You may not like him for good reason but that's not good enough to say he did it. The evidence against Damien (Aleister Crowley follower) and Jessie and Jason is looking very strong as time passes. Damien living in the apartments right across from the pipe when he was younger and the 9 confessions (to even his own attorneys) that Jessie gave amid the many other things that lead right to those three, 18-17-16 year olds. Those 3 punks are guilty as hell and throwing shade at Terry doesn't do the 3 little boys (your nephew) any justice. Can you share why you think Terry had something to do with the murders and not the 3 that were convicted? They never should have been let out of jail IMHO...

[@sheilamuse4560]

@@vdcjr I didn’t say I thought Terry did it. Find your cross examination elsewhere. Terry and I have squashed any beef we had and you can ask him if you don’t believe me. All I know is whoever did it is free and I will know in Heaven what happened. God bless and good day.

Beautifully orated. Another great video, very proud of the great content you are putting out. Your hard work shows. Rip Stevie, Michael & Christopher ❤️

[@melissam3101]

I remember hearing this story. So heartbreaking to hear what these poor three little boys went through. I even remember they also looked into one of the boys possibly step father if I remember right. May they fly high and god spreads his arms around them. So sad to see the mother of one of them also passing not long after her son was killed. Scott as always you do a phenomenal job at describing things in true detail never leaving anything out. Well done . Love you fellow Canadian

[@missyann7588]

They looked at Steve Branch’s stepfather, Terry. A lot of people still think he did it…even Steve’s mother, Pam. She no longer thinks the 3 teenagers did it. And Christopher Byers mother, Melissa died a few years back. It was considered “suspicious” and they questioned her husband, Mark. And Mark was also questioned about the murders (and this was after they had already sent the boys to prison for murder) and he denied being involved. And before Mark died in a car crash, he also said he no longer believed the teenagers were responsible. Seriously though, the boys (the victims)…it seems every person in their families were weird/crazy. I think it would have served everyone in their families and in that community well if they would NOT have gotten tunnel vision for the teenagers. They just refused to look anywhere else or anybody else. Just my opinion. And I agree…I hope Christopher, Steve and Michael RIP.

[@Almcingrid3663]

The mother of Michael killed someone because she was driving drunk.

[@rucianapollard7098]

​@@KimberlyThomason Both of Christopher Byers parents are dead. His mother died about 3 years after Christopher from "undetermined" causes, and his step dad was killed in a car accident in 2021.

[@rucianapollard7098]

​​@@missyann7588 The 3 boys came from really poor backgrounds, just like the teenagers accused of killing them. It was reported that Stevie Branch was being physically abused by his stepfather, Terry Hobbs, and that Hobbs was sexually abusing his 3 year old daughter. Christopher Byers had serious behavioral problems. He was constantly in trouble at school. His school counselor had called in a social worker because Christopher exhibited signs of sexual abuse. In fact, he and Stevie Branch had been found behind a school wall throwing their excrement at each other!! Michael Moore seemed to be the only kid with little to no family drama. His mother was involved in a car accident where the other driver was killed, after Michael's death. For some reason, the FBI seemed to think that Michael was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, and was not an intended victim. He suffered the least amount of injuries and actually drowned to death. Christopher Byers seemed to have been the main target of the murders. He was brutally beaten to death, suffering a crushed skull! He died of bkunt force trauma. Stevie Branch also suffered head injuries, but like Michael, he drowned to death. Only Christopher was beaten to death. The FBI didn't say why the believed that Christopher was the main target, but they feel strongly about it.

[@nickyinflorida]

I have often thought about these boys murders since I saw the documentary, Paradise Lost, back in the mid-90's. Lots of speculation, but here we are 30 years later, and it's still unsolved. There are so much involved with this case, how could you even begin to discuss it. I greatly appreciate that your video focused on the lives of these little boys that should be here today. Seeing each of those graves was just heartbreaking. Leaving a car at each grave was extremely thoughtful. The story you shared regarding the cemetery were Chris Byers is buried and being told by staff to "be nice" just brought me to tears though. I just can't even imagine or understand what has happened before. I'm sure making this video must have been a very emotional one for you. I am thankful to you for making this video to remember Michael, Chris, and Stevie.

[@JeriScarborough]

Melissa Byers died several years later from cancer, and probably a broken heart. RIP, to all of them💐

She did not die from cancer. Drug addiction killed her . Autopsy says undetermined death tox report listed numerous drugs . Melissa was an addict before Chris died and after. Sad sad tragedy

[@JeriScarborough]

@yigalordbanette8044 Oh, ok, it's been a while since I've watched the documentaries, and maybe I thought they said cancer. Anyways, still such a tragedy.. the entire case because whomever killed those little boys is still free today. I know one theory is that it was Stevie Branch's stepfather. The state won't do anything because as far as they are concerned, the case remains closed due to the Alford Plea of the West Memphis Three. I think we all know why they took that plea and not only are they innocent, but victims ad well. They should be exonerated and the case re-opened but I doubt it ever will be.

Thirty years on and still no closure. I've been following this story for a couple of decades. There have been a couple of movies made covering this event. "Devil's Knot". Also, a book by the same title, for those interested. The law enforcement in the small Arkansas town really messed up big-time. They were pressured to find the culprits, so they chose three teenage boys who were a bit odd for 1993. They had to close the case! One of those arrested, charged, and found guilty was Damian Echols who wrote a book about his time in prison entitled "Life After Death". Thank you Scott for putting up this nice video. I've always thought that as long as one person remembers you, you're never forgotten.

There was evidence that the boys did do it. Quite a bit. The problem is that the police fucked the case up so they went free years later. I actually think 4 people where involved 3 teens an a adult ring leader

Hi Scott, maybe someone who watches your videos that live around the area will be kind enough to visit the grave & leave something at the grave for you since you weren't able to find it. Thank you Scott for your kindness & respect. Many blessings to you my friend.

[@theinfofromthea1938]

You’ve done a great thing with this video! I drive truck and am in west Memphis all the time. I recognize the plight of which you share with us. I too am a follower of this story, which in my opinion, has not been solved.

Lovely video Scott

[@NixBurkett1984]

Thank you for this video, i admire how respectful you are to all of the people you talk about and the graves visit. I've followed this case for the last 20+ years and its heartbreaking on both sides, the loss of 3 young innocent boys (who were the same age as me) and also for Damien, Jesse and Jason. The case was botched from the start, from the contaminated crime scene, Jesse who had a low IQ and his 'coerced' confession which most of the interview wasn't recorded. If it weren't for the new bite mark and dna evidence that did not match the 3 teens, they would still be incarcerated. Originally they weren't going to agree to the Alfred plea, but only agreed to save Damien from being put to death. My money was always on Terry Hobbs or the unamed 'bloody' man seen in the Bojangles restaurant. There were also two other suspects Holland and Morgan, who both showed deception on their polygraph tests. Those 3 little boys deserved better, by finding the real killer and bringing them to justice. I still dont understand how liking Metallica and wearing black makes you a killer. RIP Steven, Christopher and Michael 🩶

You deserve way more views for all the hard work you do! God Bless you and all the people whose stories you cover! May you and them all have peace!!

[@annmariemcleod6670]

Scott your dedication to these boys is so inspiring. Thank you for doing this story. 😢

[@ashleyfortney1595]

This case as a whole was soooo tragic. I’m so glad you did a piece on this, Scott. No one could’ve done it better.

[@tongafoster2045]

Thank You for your kindness ….

[@susanboatman7913]

Excellent video, Scott. Sad story! RIP Stevie. Christopher and Michael in Heaven. God knows who murdered and abused these boy. That person will meet His judgment when they die.

[@Mooches33]

Thank you so much for honoring these beautiful boys without getting into all the craziness involving the case and the families. They deserve to be remembered. 😢

[@sandranimchuk4810]

You always do such a kind and thoughtful job honoring those you visit. This is such a sad, heartbreaking and tragic case. You did a great job covering this in a way the boys and their families would be proud of.

[@sandratodd560]

I watched this one today and you did a beautiful job! All I could do is cry and pray for these 3 Angels ❤❤❤

[@nicoleanderson1762]

Scott I love your channel so much I had to subscribe. All the way from New Zealand. I hope these beautiful boys finally get justice.

[@BacktheBlue60]

Hi sir, did I see you on Faces of the Forgotten? I'm glad I finally found your channel.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Yes you did! Nice to see you here!

[@aaphotofilm]

awesome scott, i really love how you narrated this story, i can tell how much hard work and effort you put into this video to make sure it was prepared, this was so sad, i heard other vloggers talk about this story but i really liked your as it was more detailed, to say this was a heart breaking story is not enough, i cant even think of a word for it, young lives gone too soon, far too soon in a horrific way :(

[@shannon_w.]

I have had this documentary saved on my “to watch later” for a month now and I finally got to watch it. I remember when this all happened in 1993 I saw it on the news and have seen every documentary and news clip since (because I just couldn’t fathom this happening to 3 precious boys) and you Scott have done one of the BEST and most respectful documentaries I have seen. But that doesn’t surprise me as it is you and that is how you do these. Thank you ❤

[@wandamcgiboney5141]

Some people have no morals ,,,,,probably why she said be nice ,,,,great documentary. Your always so respectful.

[@natashafaulkner666]

Thank you so much for keeping these boys' memory alive. I always thought it was someone that was a trucker. It was right next to the carwash and it had to have been more than just one person, obviously. When I read something about the knots way they were tied was more of a sailor's knot. Now those boys might have known how to have tied a sailor's knot but I doubt it. So whoever it was that went into Bojangles I believe is the murderer. And that person was not alone they gotten their truck and they just went on down the road, pretty much on to the next. I remember this case because my children were the age of these little boys. And that cuts deep and it hurts. But Scott every time that you do a video like this you always bring a very empathetic and a respect that others don't. And I can tell when certain things really bother you and this really bothered you. I appreciate you keeping the memory of these little boys alive. Anyone that has had loss, don't ever forget to say their names. Thank you Scott stay safe❤✌️

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Thank you Natasha. I believe the same theory. Unless they have committed another crime and their DNA is in the system they may never get caught

[@christinaotter]

Very sad story. Rest in peace to those poor boys who barly got a chance of life. To the person who did it (not that they deserve to be called a person) is caught and rots. Scott well done as always. I love that you didnt give up on finding little Stevie’s grave.

[@Barb-m5w]

Scott you show so much compassion for these boys. Thank you for sharing

[@donnapancake4224]

This world needs more of you in it. Those three little cars are now with three little boys. I do believe you will have three little angels running along beside you. Thank you Scott.

[@Liz-cmc313]

I've seen the documentary. I first thought they did kill those boys. It's just heartbreaking all around. Thank you for being compassionate, and showing us the places related to the story. RIP sweet boys 💔

[@sweetaspie5407]

You were right the first time. Please look into the Callahan files. Also exhibit 500

[@trinity9312]

The lady saying "Be Nice" ...wow, what could that mean? Evil knows no bounds....

[@shirlysmilesmusic6919]

She probably is very attached to those little boys and only wanted you to know not to disrespect them. Who knows?

[@laurastrobel718]

When the murders first happened and were broadcast on the local news in Tennessee, I was shocked. Usually it's one child that's found dead. I have hope that the truth will come out one day. Great treatment of this crime and thanks for your dedication in making this video. RIP Stevie, Michael and Christopher 🙏❤️🚲🌄🌈🕊️

[@loriminard6460]

Kudos to you for finishing what you started ! Good job !

[@thecoolcreativebuildchanne2613]

Very well done Scott!! It took 3 years to make, and you should be really proud! Your a great filmmaker!!

[@Bella1neverknows670]

I can only imagine how terrified those poor little boys were. 😢 you did an awesome job remembering them. how sweet of you to bring them each a little car. I hope whoever did this is living a miserable horrible life.

[@andrewh4855]

Another interesting situation you could investigate would be the Atlanta Child Murders that occurred in the late 70s early 80s. A lot of interesting theories about what really happened and how some feel the accused murder was a fall guy. Check it out for sure Scott!

[@Momjeansandshame]

That case never got the attention in still needs to this day.

[@Wilders53]

Fantastic work on this film Scott! I remember when this happened. I was 23 at the time. How could someone do something like this to 3 young innocent boys I'll never understand? Evil is real and walks with us everyday! ✌️

[@upward_falling]

Beautifully done, Scott. I know these stories well and I still cried seeing their Graves. Thank you for your work on this and putting your heart into it; it was very apparent. ❤

[@meganmckay8006]

I appreciate you for bringing this to us with so much respect for all involved. I love you Scott. ❤❤❤

[@cattmi5176]

You are a remarkable man, Scott! You didn't give up and you finished what you started for those boys. God bless you ❤

RIP all three innocent defenseless babies. Such a sad story.
