DAMIEN ECHOLS: COMMENTS ON PUBLIC EXECUTION OF FORT HOOD SHOOTER NIDAL MALIK

 DAMIEN ECHOLS , one of the WEST MEMPHIS THREE, accused of the ROBIN HOOD HILLS murders of three boys has commented he is AGAINST public executions..

DAMIEN ECHOLS sat for many years on an Arkansas death row before taking the ALFORD PLEA. . 

  DNA tests for the WEST MEMPHIS THREE are expected next month. 

  In November, 2025, evidence in WEST MEMPHIS THREE case was sent to a lab for DNA testing as that might point to the real killers. 

 

DAMIEN ECHOLS, one of the WEST MEMPHIS THREE has stated that an Arkansas judge has ruled in FAVOR of genetic DNA testing of evidence regarding the 1993 ROBIN HOOD HILLS MURDERS. 

If the DNA evidence points towards someone else other than the WEST MEMPHIS THREE, DAMIEN ECHOLS,, JESSE MISSKELLEY and JAMES BALDWIN could be exonerated.

 

 DAMIEN ECHOLS, one of the WEST MEMPHIS THREE has stated that  "The state of Arkansas has ruled that they will not allow DNA testing to be done that could identify the murderer of Michael Moore, Christopher Byers, and Stevie Branch.". THE WEST MEMPHIS THREE ( DAMIEN ECHOLS,, JESSE MISSKELLEY and JAMES BALDWIN) had  a 6/23/2022 state of Arkansas hearing for a DNA PETITION. . 

 THE WEST MEMPHIS THREE, are petitioning the world for a FULL exoneration regarding their  ALFORD PLEA in relation to the 1993 ROBIN HOOD HILLS MURDERS in West Memphis Arkansas.. DAMIEN ECHOLS   has unleashed a new book entitled "Life After Death" and is working for a full exoneration after new tests on crime scene fibers have produced NO LINK to the WEST MEMPHIS THREE.

 

 

 

 

 

 

FROM DAMIEN ECHOLS and WEST MEMPHIS THREE.(FACEBOOK): 

Damien Echols, who was freed from prison after spending almost two decades on death row, told Newsweek that livestreaming the upcoming execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be "detrimental" for American society.

https://www.newsweek.com/freed-death-row-inmate-warns...

https://www.facebook.com/share/1CTkVqGs9G/?mibextid=wwXIf

FROM GOVERNOR MIKE SHERRILL: 

There has been a lot of discussion about Hegseth's plan to publicly execute Nidal Hasan, but not enough about what this means. Nidal Hasan killed 13 innocent soldiers and deserves to be brought to justice. But a televised public spectacle of an execution is contrary to the values that this nation stands for and that I took oaths to protect. It is hard to understand how Congress has not called an emergency session to block it.

One aspect of this in particular keeps me up at night: the horror of detailing soldiers to be in the firing squad. Most veterans like myself are unfamiliar with firing squads because our military hasn't used one in over 80 years. From my understanding, they are usually made up of three to seven personnel, with some rifles being loaded with blanks to "reduce psychological harm."

I think about my own kids serving in the military, and I imagine a young service member getting detailed to the firing squad, feeling they have to follow orders despite any moral objection or personal opposition. Just about anyone who has served in combat can tell you about the toll it takes. This is different and worse: firing on someone for the public spectacle of it.

It infuriates me that, in an ode to Trump and Hegseth's warped view of toughness, the United States would sanction a military firing squad simply for the pageantry of it — no matter how it harms our service members. It is disgusting that this Administration is essentially glorifying violence and death by firearm — something we already have too much of in this country. It infuriates me to think of all the Members of Congress who have thanked me for my service on Veterans Day, but have said nothing about this and refuse to hold Trump and Hegseth accountable. It infuriates me that soldiers will be scarred for life if this goes forward — for no other reason beyond Pete Hegseth's vanity.

I imagine the young person getting detailed to the firing squad and doing their duty, following their orders. And I think of the lasting impact that will have on them. I just wish the two men in charge of our military cared half as much about the men and women who serve as they do about themselves.

FROM NBC NEWS: 

President Donald Trump said Thursday that the government will not livestream the firing-squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan — contradicting a recent announcement by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

The president added that the families of the Fort Hood shooting victims will be able to view the execution in person if they choose.

Hasan is set to be executed on Dec. 3. He was sentenced to death in 2013 for killing 13 people and injuring 32 others.

INFERNO METAL FEST 2027 /25th, 26th, 27th and 28th, 2027 ROCKEFELLER MUSIC HALL OSLO, NORWAY CONFIRM: CARCASS, ROTTEN SOUND, SWORN, NEDGRAVD, MYRVANDRER

 

 Promoters for INFERNO METAL FEST 2027, set to take place 3/25th, 26th, 27th and 28th, 2027 ROCKEFELLER MUSIC HALL OSLO, NORWAY have confirmed CARCASS, ROTTEN SOUND, SWORN, NEDGRAVD, MYRVANDRER and more bands. 

 

 

 INFERNO FEST 2027 have also confirmed  KAMPFAR, MGLA, TRELLDOM, ELLENDE, HELLRIPPER, RIUM, SHORES OF NULL, TOWARDS THE SINISTER, THE RUINS OF BEVERAST, SARKOM, HOULE  and MORE METAL BANDS... 

FROM INFERNO METAL FEST 2027 PROMOTERS: 

Five new artists are confirmed for Inferno Metal Festival 2027. This time around, the announcement spans everything from British extreme metal history and Finnish grindcore to melodic black metal and brand-new Norwegian names. We give you Carcass, Rotten Sound, SWORN, Nedgravd and myrvandrer.

CARCASS

Carcass are a pioneering British death metal band formed in 1986. The band have helped redefine genres more than once and have been true pioneers within extreme metal. It started with the debut album «Reek of Putrefaction» in 1988, which became a defining record for both grindcore and goregrind. Over the following albums, the band moved further in the direction of death metal, and with «Heartwork» in 1993, Carcass became one of the leading bands within melodic death metal. Carcass were also among the very first pure death metal bands to sign with a major label when they signed with Columbia Records, allowing them to reach far beyond the underground. When Carcass return to Inferno Metal Festival in 2027, it will be exactly ten years since their last appearance – and we are looking forward to having the legends back with us.

ROTTEN SOUND

One of the most uncompromising grindcore bands around comes from Finland and goes by the name Rotten Sound. The band were formed in Vaasa in 1993 and have been delivering raw and intense music for more than 30 years without caring about trends – or the ageing process slowly creeping up on them. Just check out last year’s EP «Mass Extinction» – eight tracks in under ten minutes. In other words, things are going to get brutal, dirty and sweaty when Rotten Sound finally return to Norway after fourteen years.

SWORN

Sworn are a melodic black metal band from Bergen who have been active for more than twenty years. During that time, the band have released one demo, one EP and five albums. Their latest, «Null Crowned the Infinite», was released recently and has received strong reviews from both fans and the press. The band have their own way of blending classic black metal with melancholic and atmospheric melodies. With a new album in their luggage, Sworn are ready for Inferno Metal Festival for the very first time.

NEDGRAVD

Nedgravd are a new Norwegian death metal band who released their debut album «Ascension» earlier this year. With members ranging in age from 17 to 21, this is an unusually young and talented band. Their sound is necro as hell. Quite simply, their music reeks of death and decay. There is a lot happening in the Norwegian underground right now, and Nedgravd are definitely one of the more exciting new names in death metal.

MYRVANDRER

Myrvandrer come from the deep forests of Hedmark and play ambient post-black metal. The band have so far existed as a solo project and released the debut album «Lenge leve livet» in 2021. The follow-up «Salt» arrived in 2022 and brought more sorrowful chaos, crushing guitar riffs and heavy beauty. In 2027, Myrvandrer take the journey further, assemble a full band and step onto the stage. It all begins at Inferno Metal Festival 2027.

Inferno Metal Festival 25–28 March 2027

Carcass, Kampfar, Mgła, Master’s Hammer, Towards the Sinister, Arcturus, Trelldom, Blasphemy, Green Carnation, The Ruins of Beverast, Ruïm, Sarkom, Hellripper, Ellende, Kraanium, Rotten Sound, Asagraum, Houle, Shores of Null, Sworn, Daeva, Kvaen, Lifesick, Split, Jordsjuk, Stigma Diabolicum, Bianca, Heimland, Nedgravd, Krapyl, Deadnate, Melting Brain Club, Oskaal, Myrvandrer, Blodmaane
