Your point about the vandalism is something that I've brought up to my kids, repeatedly. Screw up and you'll get hung for things you didn't do. It's true.

I also support law enforcement, lord knows they have a difficult job. However, you can take anything at all and turn it into something else. It is very difficult to defend yourself against some allegations. Why didn't he keep quiet until he got a lawyer? Maybe because he didn't take it seriously? 48 hours of interrogation is plain wrong.

I just have this nagging feeling that something is missing in this case. I happened to see David Westerfield on tv at his sentencing, and stared at him trying to find something in his demeanor that would indicate guilt. Nada. Some speculation on my part: is he protecting someone else? Who on earth would you give your life up for?

The only other person living in his house. His son. That thought has crossed my mind before.

Who in their right mind would subject themselves to 48 hours of interrogation without an attorney? Either it would be an egomaniacal killer (in this instance), or a person who was completely innocent.

Thanks for your comments.
