alone are quite capable of every wickedness." - Joseph Conrad

The Arkansas coordination site for activities concerning the WM3. Also addresses other disturbing Arkansas cases. Motto: "Working for radical change."

A very cool site that features, among other very cool stuff, one of the best interviews of me.

Awaiting the day

Just want to let you know how much I enjoyed your book Devil’s Knot. I thought I knew a lot about the case of the WM3 but after reading your book it was obvious I knew next to nothing. Looking forward to a revised addition after (hopefully) the guys are released.

Thanks for writing, Paul. That new book is in the works. I need to hurry with it, as a release might happen quickly, once a few key decisions are handed down.
