The West Memphis 3 Case
When three 8-year-old boys were found brutally murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas, in 1993, the local police focused on three teens who were interested in the occult. The police said they believed the murders were part of a satanic ritual. Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jesse Misskelley are tried and convicted of the murders on circumstantial evidence. In 2007 new pieces of evidence in the form of hair were found. Once tested, it does not belong to any of the accused; it is also brought to the court's attention that inadmissible evidence was presented to the jury. Damien, Jason, and Jesse are released after taking an Alfred Plea. Now new evidence has come to light that may set the record of who killed the young boys straight once and for all. Join me as I talk about the murders and the trials. I will do a follow-up after the results from the testing of the new evidence are released.
Mini Episode: Deputy Val Johnson UFO Incident
Deputy Van Johnson was patrolling when he said a strange light hit him. He was knocked out and confused when he woke up. His teeth were fractured, and his eyes burned. His car also sustained damage in several places. The local sheriff investigated the incident, and a Ford crash expert called the damage to the car highly unusual. Deputy Johnson was wearing a wristwatch that stopped for fourteen minutes, and the clock in the car did as well. What was it that hit Deputy Johnson? What happened in the fourteen-minute time frame? No one knows, but this is one of the most interesting cases I've ever covered.
Celebrity UFO Stories
Many celebrities are coming forward to share their UFO experiences and let the world know they believe. I share a few of these stories and talk a bit of the government not being willing to tell the complete truth. Will people who have large reaches like celebrities help push the government to be more truthful? Only time will tell.

Lars Mittank was 28-years old when he disappeared while on vacation with friends. The night before he disappeared, he got into an altercation with some men at a bar. He left only to return the next day and told his friends he had been beaten up. A doctor found that he had constant injuries with a fight, including a ruptured eardrum. This injury kept him from flying home with his friends. He booked into a hotel for the night and went to the airport the next day. While talking to an airport doctor, he bolted from the airport, hopped over a fence, and disappeared into a field of sunflowers. Lars has never been heard from again.
