Terri Hobbs Makes A Personal Website To Humanize Himself

Step father of murder victim Stevie Branch has started his own website to humanize himself in the eyes of the public after attention has been directed his way in the murder of Stevie, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers.

The murder of the three boys pictured above has become infamous due to the convictions of Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jesse Misskelly. The three convicted boys, now men, were coined the West Memphis Three and gained world wide recognition due to the documentary PARADISE LOST which followed them through the trials. People across the nation believed the three were innocent and suspicion fell onto many different parties including an unknown bloodied man who entered a local restaurant around the time of the murders, Byers' step father Mark Byers, and now Hobbs himself.

Experts that were hired by the boys' defense team announced that they found a DNA sample within one of the ligatures that bound Christopher Byers and the profile fit that of Terry Hobbs. Since then, a world of suspicion has been cast upon Hobbs who has been adamant that he had nothing to do with the murders.

This is not the first time Hobbs has been under scrutiny. In 1994, Hobbs was arrested for shooting his brother-in-law after he violently attacked his wife, and mother of Stevie Branch, Pam Hobbs. Critics believe this instance and others show the true violent nature of Hobbs and believe that the murder of the children would not be out of his scope of behaviors.



In his personal website, Hobbs describes himself as "a quiet, laid-back man" and hopes that his blog will "get to know him".
He has also posted a letter that he, Diana and Todd Moore (parents of Michael Moore), and Steven Hobbs (biological father of Stevie Hobbs) sent to the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, thanking them for not awarding the film PARADISE LOST 3 an Oscar. In the film, it shows the three defendants being freed from jail and profiles the road of suspicion that has led to Hobbs. They wrote that it would have been a "painful injustice" to have the film given the award and continued with "the decision not to reward a biased documentary that celebrates convicted child murderers was the right one".

He goes into little detail about the case and releases one final statement that can be seen on his blog and notes it will be the last he will speak of it.

I would like to get your input on this ordeal and ask that you read what he has to say and let us know what your opinions are.
I have long been a HUGE supporter of the West Memphis Three as well as an advocate that the real person(s) behind the murder be brought to justice.
I do have my own set of feelings on this issue but do not want to taint your responses based on mine. I am all about a good healthy discussion on this case.

  1. hi dai!

    well i can tell you what i think:

    terry wayne hobbs murdered his stepson stevie in a fit of rage when he encountered all 3 kids somewhere in the woods, and then got rid of the two witnesses.

    i find it disgusting, even grotesuqe that he ordered someone to make this rosamunde pilcher like webpage, now at a time when there's a 100 grand offered for information on the killer.

    i followed the case and made a blog too (since oral arguments, ASSC, in sept. 2010) and i just have no doubts anymore that he is the one, out of a variety of reasons. if only DA ellington would move his darn butt...

    anyway, i like your site, and greetings from vienna,

  2. hi there,

    i just wanted to say something re DNA, hobbs, and ligatures:

    2 auburn beard hairs were found in the ligature that bound victim michael moore. both contain hobbs mitochondrial DNA (98,5% certainty).

    note that no DNA from the other parents was found. and it is still unclear (to everyone) which lace came out of which shoe. the laces were never identified.

    this may be the only PHYSICAL evidene, right now, bt it is just the tip of the iceberg. that guy is so guilty.

  3. I think only someone with something to hide goes to this much trouble to defend himself for something he hasn't been charged with

  4. I would like to say that I am 100% sure that Terri Hobbs killed those kids. I also find the judge, prosecutors and court system is just as guilty of murdering those kids by not bringing Terri Hobbs to justice and for ruining ther WM3's lives. Let me just say one thing to Terri Hobbs, you filthy rotten snake, you will be brought to justice now or by God.
    If I had the money, I would hire an attorney to bring you to justice myself.
