 DAMIEN ECHOLS, one of the freed WEST MEMPHIS THREE, will share convo at (the already SOLD OUT) "LIFE AFTER DEATH: DAMIEN ECHOLS IN CONVERSATION WITH HENRY ROLLINS." ECHOLS will speak with post hardcore/spoken word icon HENRY ROLLINS, 11/7/2012 at the New York Library, Stephen A. Schwarzman building, NYC, New York.

DAMIEN ECHOLS, one of the WEST MEMPHIS THREE has relocated to Salem, Massachusetts, 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.

WEST MEMPHIS THREE (Damien Echols, Jessie Misskelly and Jason Baldwin) documentary PARADISE LOST 3: PURGATORY was unleashed in DVD format 8/14/2012.  The PARADISE LOST  documentary trilogy (collecters edition) will be unleashed as a boxed set 11/6/2012.

JASON BALDWIN, JESSIE MISSKELLY and DAMIEN ECHOLS were freed August, 7th, 2011 via an ALFORD PLEA after serving 18 years in prison (Echols on death row) for the 1993 ROBIN HOOD HILLS MURDERS (West Memphis, Arkansas) with zero evidence as THE WEST MEMPHIS THREE still maintain their innocence.

In 1993, then 18-year-old Damien Echols was arrested along with fellow teenagers Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley, Jr. and charged with the murders of three eight-year-old boys in West Memphis, Arkansas. As the supposed “ringleader” of the group, Echols was sentenced to death, while Baldwin and Misskelley were given life sentences. The convicted men, known as the West Memphis Three, ultimately became part of one of the most notorious cases of wrongful conviction in recent history.

Damien Echols, the central figure of the West Memphis Three, presents a gripping, eloquently written account of his early life, his arrest and trial, his eighteen years on death row, his new life after prison, and his ongoing quest for full exoneration in his definitive memoir, Life After Death. In conversation with Henry Rollins, a longtime supporter of the effort to free the West Memphis Three, Echols will discuss the story of his life before and after his trial, including his spiritual and intellectual journey in prison as well as his wife, Lorri Davis, whom he met and married while on death row. As inspiring as it is terrifying, Life After Death reveals Echols to be not only a survivor, but also an extraordinary writer.
