I just read on another forum that she has been found dead. I'm looking for an article.

I read a thread where they say these kind of abductions are down, but it sure seems to me they are coming out of the woodwork all of a sudden.

This is so sick.

Why in the WORLD would people invite a strange homeless man to stay in their house with them when there are children present? I can understand wanting to be nice or charitable, but these days you can't take such chances with your kids! Poor little lamb. (Same holds true for the Van Dams--the kids' welfare should come first!!)

no word on her yet to my knowledge.

Fox News reported they found a body, they are pretty sure it is her.

Found in an old abandoned Glass factory under some debre.

Samantha's Mom is really holding every member of that Jury responsible for her daughter's death.

I don't know WHY the Jury let Avila off, if the two girls came forward and witnessed that he did in fact, molest them. I can't see that Avila had an attorney of Feldman's class, maybe even a public defender, but the Prosecutor didn't present a strong enough case to convict the first time. So the Jury is blamed? I don't know....

And I can't judge how Mantha's Mom is feeling, except to say, I don't blame her for saying ANYTHING at this time.

OTOH, Samantha's Murder and Now Cassie's Murder come at the worst possible time for DW.

If the Jury were sequestered and couldn't watch the news, listen to Rick Roberts and read the papers, they wouldn't feel the pressure to go forward and convict... but now, (and I don't care what anyone says to the contrary) they will feel it's their duty to find him guilty, lest they suffer the consequences if down the road, he commits an act of violence.

The jury is tainted, and Westerfields right to a fair trial have been violated, IMHO.

The experts say about a hundred a year, twice a week. That's about what we seeing now that the press has decided to cover them all. Several last week were not murders.

This is probably the wrong to say it, but I know it's true. If you want to make sure your kids live to 18, watchout for who you let them ride with in a car and don't let them have a DL until there 18. 15,000 deaths of children per year in cars. 30,000 more mangled.

These are the hardest kinds of cases to prosecute. There apparently was no physical evidence, as he molested them by playing with their privates while bathing them.

Juries in southern Calif. may be gun shy to convict on only the word of the children because 20 years or more ago a daycare owner and workers in S.Calif. were convicted of molesting and all kinds of gross things. It turned out to be all false happenings.

Some of the things the children told of were the most awful things you could imagine. These ideas were planted in their minds by some social worker. The jury believed the children.

I understand. But I was reading a few posts by Strela on the Cassandra thread, and if that is an example of how people are feeling toward us and DW, we are living in a really screwed up world.

This is true, but we are all aware that a vehicle can be a lethal weapon and an accident can happen at anytime.

But we don't expect some NO GOOD HUMAN @$##@#@$$##@!!!! to snuff out the life of a child.

Brooke L. Rowland

Here we have a known child sexual predator (charged with 5 or more counts) living in the same small town, Poway, CA. He's a member of an international child porno ring. 40 years old. Brenda's age. Brenda and friends out hunting men on 2/1 at the local dive. Danielle disappears that night. Unknown fingerprints and hairs in VD house. This creep is arrested 2/15. Daniells body dumped circa 2/12+. Nah, couldn't be him!

Its considered cowardly to mention someone in a post and not ping them.

They've taken great strides in laser surgery these days. Doctors can even remove yellow stripes from people's backs in a flash. Just thought you might like to know.

I couldn't agree with you more - this is very sick. Could it be a "Columbine Syndrome" occurring, only in this case copy-cat child killers seem to be on the rampage - seeking their 15 minutes of, albeit twisted, fame? It's a mad, mad world.

Oh really. Quit mucking up this thread with you hostility toward the people who are posting to the Westerfield threads...and I mean it.

Want to talk about what a coward is? Look in the mirror. Take your grips on over to the REAL Westerfield trial threads...go now, scoot, and we'll be waiting to hit the abuse button with your insane hositle comments..Troll.
