In the movie Paradise Lost they found one of the kids with bite marks. Oh yeah, some big scary Satanic ritual sacrifice is going on in Arkansas and one of the members bite the child? Sorry, but IF some Satanic cult was going on it would not bite, and the damage would have been a lot more bloody. Seriously, no one has watched enough movies or read books in Arkansas. Go watch "Rosemary's Baby"

I don't know if they're guilty or innocent, but I know that just because their DNA is not at the scene doesn't, in and of itself, exonerate them.

What a thoughtful gesture on behalf of the benevolent state of Arkansas... they bungled the investigation, conducted a witch hunt, railroaded some poor & in one case, mentally disabled teenagers, and wrongfully sent them to prison for 18 years. NOW if these defendants and their team do all the legwork, find evidence and pass it along, the prosecutor is willing to have the state crime lab look at it!! WOW, is it an election year?? And yes, I know he wasn't the original prosecutor and not all of this is his fault, but he's speaking for the state and it has also stated he still believes Damien, Jessie and Jason are guilty. Negotiate a pardon after you run the DNA and THEN we'll thank you.
