West Memphis Three Filming Location

This is the location where the three murdered boys were found in 1993. Mixed emotions while filming this. Creepy to an extent, but also surreal as I watched this documentary as a kid when it first came out. I never knew there were follow up documentaries until last year when I was scrolling through Netflix and found out there were two more, showcasing more information on the case. (Spoiler) Glad to see that these three innocent boys were released from prison after wrongfully being accused of the horrific murders they did not commit.

Thanks mom, glad you liked it 👍

You managed to capture quite a few landmarks that are relevant to the case in this video. Cool stuff.

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

Thanks, I appreciate it 👍

You did find the pipe bridge but when you pointed to the bank location of where you thought the bodies were found you were wrong. You pointed to the left side of the bank. In matter of fact the bodies were found on the right side once you cross the bridge about 15 yards to the north. The trees were all destroyed and the gullies were their bodies were submerged in have been filled in. So the exact spot of the remains now just looks like grass and weeds. I could see it in your drone footage.

Great job on the video …I’m a year late (sorry)….driven thru there on the way to Little Rock many times

[@davidschaadt3460]

And the area was cleared of trees and bulldozed later .There were lots of gullies and trails in the area beyond the pipe bridge.

[@mikeflippo6273]

I would be real interested to know why the actual ditch was filled in and the woods removed.

[@jimgarrison7340]

It was becoming a popular tourist destination so the city had the trees chopped down and the area mowed yearly.

[@rucianapollard7098]

Robin Hood Hills was a place not far from the neighborhood where the boys lived. The local kids often played there even though the city tried to keep them out because they felt someone would get hurt, but the kids still played there anyway. I think the person who murdered the boys lived in the neighborhood and was familiar with Robin Hood Hills. He could have very well seen them go in, and he followed them.

The bodies were found walking a stretch on other side of the pipe (bikes were found beside the pipe), but on the right side of the pipe, not the left (in the now gone forest that stood beside the old and empty car wash). There are a few old photos of the site with marks on the places they found the bodies. It´s a pitty you didn´t record the right place.

I’m sorry you have wasted your time with terrible resources, but you are incorrect Alex. It’s cool though, better luck next time champ 👍

Hey I just watched this video.l am in my 50s , I can tell you this much, I watched everything from the trail to the west Memphis 3, Lost in paradise.l actually watched all 3 parts of it.and I have been watching everything over the years.l even watched the part when they all got out of prison.l am gonna be honest with you, I don't think they did it.oh l almost forgot but they did take the one guy in for questions, that man's name is Terry Hobbs.everyone over the years has always thought it was him that did it.guess what? , He has a page on KZbin and he goes bye Terry Hobbs.check this one out, I went through his page and I subscribe to it and I scrolled through it and he acts like everything is good and he acts like nothing never happened.l haven't hit the thumbs up or haven't said anything in the comments section on his post's on his page on KZbin.you should get on KZbin and type in west Memphis 3,it will show you everything and I mean everything on the West Memphis 3 Case.

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

Yeah I’ve watched all those documentaries. I saw the first one as a kid and didn’t discover the other two until a few years ago. I was shocked at how far in depth the case went. I definitely went down the west Memphis rabbit hole lol.

[@hillarymack3207]

Very interesting

[@tjguz1]

You are slightly off on the body location but good video.

[@davidschaadt3460]

Fascinating ,and creepy .Really enjoyed this .I hope the truth is known one-day I think the three did it but you.never know.

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

I had the same feelings when I was there. Sort of cool, but also very eerie.

[@onebadwestie]

Cool vid!

[@harrycallahan9143]

Great video, always wanted to check the scene out myself, still think the WM3 killed those boys, the use of tying the boys up with their own shoe laces proves to me this was a crime of opportunity, kids were known to played around in those woods and Damien said himself in his medical records he liked to hang around the woods, the fact that not one of the three boys could make it out to the open screams more than one killer and the different knots used, The 2009 Edlington case was eerily similar to this, even the location looked the same.

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

Valid points 👍

[@rucianapollard7098]

As I've heard, the crime scene looks totally different from 1993. I think they bulldozed the place not to long after the murders. Also, there was a set of apartments maybe 2-3 hundred yards from Robin Hood Hills. Some people speculated that the black man who came into Bojangles that night, covered in bloodd and mud, could have very well come from that apartments complex with it being so close to the crime scene. The police never questioned anyone there, because once they decided that Damien Echols was the killer, they never followed up on other leads!!

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

Yeah I heard about that theory as well. I watched all three documentaries about the murders and after watching them I’m still confused lol

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

It definitely wasn’t the kids though, IMO.

[@skeet6903]

You should of went to see if Christopher Morgan's parents home is still at the end of mccauley st?

[@skeet6903]

Did you know stevie branch lived on McCauley street and Christopher Morgan's parents home was at the end just before you enter the woods on the dead end.id be curious to know if they still live there.

[@thesummitbeforeyou]

I wasn’t aware that’s where it was at the time I shot this, we happened to be driving across the country and realized we were in west Memphis and the last minute I looked this spot up and so I only got this footage. Wish I would have had more time. I would have liked to go to all the locations, maybe even an interview (if lucky), just didn’t have the time.

[@skeet6903]

@@skeet6903 You can tour there with Google earth, but these places seem to be very hidden from outside views with trees etc. Btw the ravine they were found is on the right side of the pipe not the left.
