The trials of Damian Echols and Jason Baldwin are scheduled for late February.
Acquaintances of Damian Echols told reporters that Echols customarily wore fl, killed cats and worshipped the devil.
And the other two, Damian and Jason, I think you'd find that they, too, come from what is the politically-correct term, a dysfunctional home, to one degree or another.

Although there was no physical evidence, murder weapon, motive, or connection to the victims, the prosecution pathetically resorted to presenting fl hair and clothing, heavy metal t-shirts, and Stephen King novels as proof that the boys were sacrificed in a satanic cult ritual.

The case drew lots of media attention, as the boys were seen as guilty-as-charged by their community, because they listened to heavy metal and dressed in fl.
Because Damian Echols listened to Metallica music and because Metallica lyrics were actually introduced into this absurd trial as evidence that he must be a killer we felt that Metallica music, when we were editing the film, would have to be in the film.
As a matter of fact Damian is awaiting DNA testing that has taken years for the courts to approve.

 West Memphis 3 - WM3
The chronicles of three young men--Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley--who were convicted of the brutal 1993 murders of three second graders.
Although the trial produced virtually no physical evidence connecting the defendants to the crime, the town, the jury, and the police felt that they had their killers, and used the young men’s penchant for heavy metal music and fl clothing and a fascination with the Wicca religion as evidence of their guilt.
For his part, Echols explained the difference between paganism and Satanism, but Driver was a pentragram-chaser and Echols had the five-pointed star tattooed on his chest.

 Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills film review
The cameras are ever-present in court during the subsequent trial and reveal an astonishing example of the law being an ass: in the end the boys are convicted on no solid evidence and simply because they wore fl, listened to Metallica and acted a little oddly.

 goatdog's movies - Paradise Lost 2: Revelations, 2000
In 1996, documentarians Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky made Paradise Lost: The Child Murders of Robin Hood Hills, a powerful film about three teenage boys who were convicted of the horrific murder of three children.

This new film was made in 1999, and it covers the appeals hearings of Damien Echols, the supposed ringleader of the trio.

The jury convicted Damien Echols as the ringleader of the three and sentenced him to death row, while the other two suspects were handed down life sentences.

There are those who accused Echols of being a Satanist but Echols asserts that he is a Wiccan.
Thus I can say with some authority that Echols was practicing a form of Satanic magick pasted together from various sources, and not Wicca.
Echols described what he was doing to investigators as "Witchcraft" as he thought that this is what Satanic magick was called.
