My point is that DW saying 'spur of the moment', 'good place to hide a body', etc,etc. are not proof he kidnapped and murdered a child.

It seems the media and the police used these statements as HYPE to get the public excited about their bringing home the BIG FISH.

They committed tons of YOUR money, and LE's time (more your money) to going after DW.

Once committed, there is no backing out.

Most people do not understand, even if the police find during the investigation that you are totally innocent, they have no obligation to testify/provide this info in court. IF they arrested and charged you, YOU Have to defend yourself, and if you can't, TOO BAD.

I see this case not as a CONSPIRACY, but as a SNOWBALL that once it started rolling downhill, picked up in size and speed and then COULDN'T BE STOPPED.

Notice that police/media didn't make a big deal out of catching two CHILD/PORN/RAPISTS that lived within miles of Danielle, and one of whom wasn't even arrested until a few days after FEB 16th.

Is is POSSIBLE these two were involved in Danielle's abduction/death? SURE it is.

For all we know they may have even confessed to it by now.

BUT, the SHOW MUST GO ON. Sure, If Feldman had access to that info, he could present it. But, he must know it exists, and then get proof.

If it would embarrass the police, IT WON'T HAPPEN. If you believe otherwise, you have a lot to learn about this world.

"saying 'spur of the moment', 'good place to hide a body'"


So, one should *never* use these terms? Like these terms go along with having/using bleach, unrolled hosed, & a host of other things that placed suspicions on DW?

(I can't even begin to guess, how many times in my lifetime, I've used those same terms, at one time or another. And not thinking anything of it.) LOL

Nobody was "hyping" the "spur of the moment" comment. Kim picked up on it when CTV played the tape this morning, and in the wake of Neal's testimony and the friend who said DW had planned to be gone, put two and two together by herself. That being, why did DW say it?

Notice Westerfield underscores it by the italicized portion:

WESTERFIELD: No, it was spur of the moment. Because I had a, you know, I had made a commitment to Gary to be at the bar on Friday night. And I knew that I had nothing really planned for today. So it was going to be Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.

end excerpt

Plus Neal said their weekend camping trips were usually Fri thru Sunday.

Nobody is saying the statement and the statement alone are proof of murder, but it is foolish to just cast it aside without giving it some thought.

When Westerfield told the LE that "this would be a good place to hide a body", he was no different than every other person who was speculating where she might be. NO DIFFERENT...Most everyone on FR and other forums were offering their opinions where her body might be.

Then, we have the hose being left out...Then we have him being overly cooperative....Then we have him sweating too much.

As you said, UCS..they were looking to hang this on him. All these little tidbits in and of themselves shouldn't have amounted to a hill of beans.

Oh, and how can I ever forget Nancy Grace of CTV, saying that Westerfield DARED to laugh at something funny when the whole court erupted in laughter. "How dare He"! she said. Course, the next day, she goes on to talk about how the guy is way too stoic and shows no emotions, an ice cold murderer. He can't win for losing with her!

End of rant.
