Curiouser and curiouser. If Westerfield is innocent,and I strongly suspect that he is,this timeline means that-to my way of thinking-he'd been nominated for the fall guy position early on. That,or the samples that Peer took were switched or contaminated sometme between 06Feb and the time they were tested.
Interesting,because the accidental death scenario was plausible to me-but now I'm brainstorming about motives again. Assume that Danille died accidentally,or that she was killed accidentally. Why on earth would the cops be working so hard to find a fall guy? If memory serves,I don't think that the life insurance policy on that girl was particularly large,unless there are some other policies that aren't being talked about,so why all this work? (And I might add that it seems to be pretty sloppy work in some instances)
Brenda seems to have pointed them at Westerfield early on. Remember about the cops "embellishing on statements provided by Brenda Van Dam" in order to obtain the search warrants?
And if these two characters rode around in Westerfield's motor home wth him,and these two are such damn hotshot detectives,why didn't they notice these bloodstains and ask him about them?
