motivation[edit]

This looks useful for the article:

http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2010/may/21/relatives-id-west-memphis-suspects/

It says the suspects were anti-government extremists of some sort. 69.228.170.24 (talk) 19:42, 23 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

removed cleanup tag[edit]

I feel the section is now acceptably written, although the 'long intro' tag still seems appropriateSnideology (talk) 04:40, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

no mention of the dogs and skeptics[edit]

The article does not seem to address what appears to be wide-spread skepticism regarding the shooting. A quick Google search will reveal several pages and discussions on the topic.

Also, there were two dogs in the car. One appears to have been shot to death, while the other managed to escape the car and recovered from its gunshot wounds. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.215.162.175 (talk) 03:21, 8 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:2016 shootings of Des Moines police officers which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 08:20, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
