This is why I think the LE is not responsible for the orange fiber on the necklace and the defense screwed up chasing it with LE orange photos. IF the orange fiber in the necklace is the same as the other orange fibers it is either from one of the lady's at VD's and then dancing with DW (he did not do it), or from some item of DW's that is now missing (he did it). I think these fibers were 1 to 2 inches in length. Unless LE found other such long fibers of different colors (they did not report any, but not sure they would have) then I think the item would have to be mainly orange.

My guess is that the defense knew that the orange fibers did not come from those shirts, but it did make the jurors start to wonder where the fibers came from because the source was not found in Westerfield's home. The fibers came from a common source, but where? Reasonable doubt is all the defense needs.
As for the fibers, I have a feeling that they came from Brenda while dancing, but whether they came from her sweater, a stuffed animal in Danielle's room, the dog bed, or some old shag carpet, is still a mystery.
