Ahhh, I liked him best as a villain.
Even though he later changed his position on the West Memphis Three's guilt, it was his terrific maniacal rants as the (most dynamic) 'star' of Paradise Lost and Revelations that I used to DJ and sample lots many years ago. This unedited chunk (2:12) of prime Byers is a delicious piece of dialogue, and if it whets your appetite, and you haven't yet seen the documentary it's stolen from then this is your prompt to pick it up and give it a look (and its sequel). "To me, this place as I stand, is like Hell on Earth."
Enjoy.
I wonder where he is now...?

He's dead. He's also the real killer.

He's alive and it's questionable as to who the real killer is.

I've been leaving this on answering machines, it freaks people out.

He's writing a book, and he has a website. http://www.johnmarkbyers.com/
Terry Hobbs is the real killer.
