Union Trib ^ | August 14, 2002 | San Diego Staff

[FresnoDA]

Knut, meet Bass.....

Bass, meet Knut....

Now, I want a good clean fight....

Retreat to your neutral corner, and may the best freeper win.

DING.DING.DING.

Round 1......

[SilentWitness]

There was a For Sale sign on a house 2 doors up from DW on opposite side towards Springhurst Road. Didn't note the address because Sen. Dashle was running out of the bushes from the VD's!

Do you have a guess when the jury will come out with their verdict?

I have to get back outside to do battle with an 80-ft Australian eucalyptus tree.

[the Deejay]

I find it interesting that in Damon's testimony he
is still deciding on what's "relevant" in this trial.

When he said he didn't think his/Brenda/Barb's/
Denise's sexual preferences were relevant "at the
time, and I still don't." Then he chuckled.

[UCANSEE2]

I have been to many trials and the Defense Lawyers almost ALWAYS want their client to AVOID TESTIFYING, no matter what. It is considered a LAST RESORT.

That is also why there is a law saying YOU CANNOT BE FORCED TO TESTIFY in a trial where you are the defendant.

[Politicalmom]

Just remember....the secret's in the sauce...

[AppyPappy]

Yes and the Defense lawyers don't go to jail if they lose.

[VRWC_minion]

Altertate jurors

So the fact that the movie was so offensive that two adults burst into tears from watching it is completely lost on you folks because the they were alternate jurors ?

Wow.

[the Deejay]

I never try and guess when a jury will be back
with verdict in hand, nor what that verdict will
be.

I hired gardeners. I refuse to do the trees/shrubs,
etc. anymore.

Sen. Dashole? Really? LOL

[KnutCase]

I don't appreciate being "bagged" and shared. (in jest...)

[Lanza]

Oh! You are so bad! I thought we had a verdict!

[small_l_libertarian]

Good grief! It took me forever, but here it is. This is from Dusek's direct questioning of Neal:

Q ON THAT DATE OF FEBRUARY 4TH, DID YOU ACCESS ANY PORNOGRAPHY?
A I DON'T REMEMBER DOING SO.

Q HAVE YOU BEEN SHOWN ANY DOCUMENTS THAT MIGHT TEND TO INDICATE YOU WERE?
A YES.

Q WHAT WERE YOU SHOWN, DO YOU RECALL?
A I WAS SHOWN DATED PHOTOGRAPHS OF -- I WAS SHOWN DOCUMENTS THAT PROVED THAT I HAD BEEN ACCESSING SOMETHING OF PORNOGRAPHIC NATURE ON THAT DAY.

Q WHO SHOWED YOU THESE DOCUMENTS PROVED YOU WERE ACCESSING PORNOGRAPHIC MATERIAL?
A I'M SORRY.

Q WHO SHOWED YOU THESE DOCUMENTS THAT SUPPOSEDLY PROVED YOU WERE ACCESSING --
A MR. FELDMAN DID.

Q DO YOU RECALL WHAT THEY WERE?
A THEY WERE SCREEN SHOTS FROM A PROGRAM I WOULD ASSUME THAT ACCESSES FILES THAT ARE AUTOMATICALLY STORED ON THE HARD DRIVE.

Q AND HE TOLD YOU WHAT THEY PROVED?
A YES.

Q UP UNTIL THAT TIME AND EVEN NOW, DO YOU RECALL ACCESSING ANY PORNOGRAPHY ON THE 4TH OF FEBRUARY?
A NO.

Juror #3 180 Frankenfurter w/extra mayo & a bowl of water

P.S. And have the custodial staff bring in the steam cleaner this evening.

[the Deejay]

Personal feelings of the alternates. Juries are not
permitted to reach a verdict on "emotions".

[Jaded]

Why didn't all of them cry?

[small_l_libertarian]

I've been known to burst into tears watching old episodes of "The Facts of Life."

Do you think Mrs. Garrett is a child rapist, too?

[KnutCase]

Don't worry. Nothing fazes me. I never take anything too serious. It's the secret to living to 100. Ask George Burns. Ask Bob Hope......Oops, can't ask George...sorry about that.

[UCANSEE2]

No it is stating your innocence for the world to hear. Westerfield's life is on the line. He needs to win this case BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. Remember, he is ON TRIAL. I'm not on trial. Why is that? Because the State thinks HE did it, not me. They have enough evidence to put him on trial. They told the jury that HE is guilty. He needs to refute them and state for the record "THE STATE IS WRONG. I AM INNOCENT".

Well, all I can say is you have it ALL WRONG. It is the PROSECUTION that is trying to win the case BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY, including having the Judge on their side, LYING during opening and closing statements, having affidavits SEALED that would show the innocence of the defendant. That State doesn't think he did it. The DA needed a PERP quickly. Brenda pointed to DW. The police then found everything he did or said as suspicious. They then went about finding some evidence that COULD link him to Danielle. When all the circumstances came out in court, those links were shown to be a case of YES THEY WERE THERE, BUT WHEN did they get there.

The fact the dogs did not HIT on the MH proves that Danielle hadn't been in it for quite some time.

Yes, you are right, THEY told the JURY he is guilty. So, I say you are guilty, NOW CAN I PUT YOU IN JAIL. Is that all it takes? Someone says you are?

The JUDGE more or less said DW is guilty, which will be grounds for mistrial. THis whole trial has been a major malfunction from the beginning. The Prosecution witnesses lying and being caught at it, the LE investigators changing stories, the cross contamination of evidence. The DA is hanging his re-election bid on this case. THAT IS WHY THEY ARRESTED DW before they really had found hard evidence. THey then ignored evidence that might have led to her real killer, and ignored evidence at the time that might have allowed her to be found ALIVE.

Him getting on the stand and saying "I AM INNOCENT" will accomplish nothing. EVER BEEN TO PRISON. EVERYONE in PRISON is INNOCENT, JUST ASK THEM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
