Page "West Memphis Three" Paragraph 59

In October 2003, Vicki Hutcheson, who played a part in the arrests of Misskelley, Echols and Baldwin, but did not testify at the trial, gave an interview to the Arkansas Times in which she stated that every word she had given to the police was a fabrication.

She further asserted that the police had insinuated if she did not cooperate with them they would take away her child.

She noted that when she visited the police station they had photographs of Echols, Baldwin, and Misskelley on the wall and were using them as dart targets.

She also claims that an audio tape the police claimed was " unintelligible " ( and eventually lost ) was perfectly clear and contained no incriminating statements.
