He also had his teeth removed after the first trial. There was teeth marks on one of the victims, but none of the teens matched those teeth marks. Byers never gave a good reason for having his teeth removed. I feel for those innocent teens that were convicted. You may be able to find the video online somewhere. Maybe even youtube has something.
I also have a book about the case, which I haven't read. It's called The Blood of Innocents.
I do hope someday that those men are found innocent instead of rotting away in a prison for someone else's crime. This is a story I've never forgotten.

I've seen Paradise Lost 1 and 2. Paradise 1 was actually where I first head of the case. I've been following it for about 10 years now. The book raises so many valid points, not only about their guilt or innocence, but also about the complete lack of a fair trial. I haven't read "The Blood of Innocents", though. I will have to check that one out.
A while back the stepfather, Byers, came out and supported their attempts to prove their innocence. He claims to believe that they didn't do it. It's just such a horrible story.
