Interview with Treva Chrisman, UCA Demand Justice Student Panel
Treva Chrisman, Sophomore, Interior Design

How old were you in 93?

I had just turned six years old when the murders occured.

How were you introduced to the WM3 case?

I was Introduced to the case in Lanette Grate's Comp II class.

Were you living in Arkansas when the murders occurred?

I was living in Northwest Arkansas

Do you recall anything in particular about the general attitude of those in your area at the time of the
trial/investigation into the murders?

I honestly do not remember when they occured.

What elements of the WM3 case concern you the most?

The injustice of the court system, lack of evidence, and the corruption of the police.

What do you hope to accomplish in your role with the Demand Justice UCA Panel?

Because it takes more to than a one time presentation to prove an injustice for those who have never heard of
the case, I would be happy to bring attention to the corruption of authority figures. I would also like to point out
how proud some of Arkansas' government officials are to about to reopen the case and examine it further so it
can finally be put to rest.
