WEST MEMPHIS MURDERS: Small crowd already at court

6:43 a.m. update: Small crowd gathers at courthouse

A small group of supporters of three men convicted of murdering three boys in West Memphis have gathered outside the Craighead County courthouse annex hours before a hearing that may allow the three men to go free.

Damien Echols, Jesse Misskelley and Jason Baldwin have been imprisoned since being convicted in the grisly 1993 slayings of Boy Scouts Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers. They are expected to appear in court later Friday. Sources, including family of the victims, indicated some sort of a plea deal that would free the men was likely at the hearing.

It sure is long, but I hope it bends all the way today.

Best of luck to Damien, Jesse, and Jason.

I hope this really happens. I also hope, someday, the actual killer(s) will be found and punished.
