What could a single black tennis shoe found floating in a ditch reveal about a harrowing 1993 mystery? This episode of Murder and Mimosas takes you straight to the heart of West Memphis, Arkansas, on May 5th, where the disappearance of three young boys, Michael Moore, Stevie Branch, and Chris Byers, sets off a haunting chain of events. As darkness falls and families report the boys missing, the early search efforts are thwarted, only for a juvenile officer to make a chilling discovery the next day. Tune in as we unravel the initial investigation and dive into the troubling mishandling of evidence that only deepened the tragedy. We'll also uncover more disturbing details, such as the heart-wrenching task faced by police notifying the bereaved families and the significant yet puzzling tip about a disoriented, blood-covered man seen at a Bojangles restaurant the night the boys vanished. Our discussion isn't just about piecing together facts; it's about understanding the profound impact of the early investigative missteps and the emotional toll on the community. Stay engaged for upcoming episodes where a special guest will bring previously unheard insights to light, offering a fresh perspective on this decades-old mystery.
