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.

Hi Eva, I would have to assume, or wonder if the prosecution checked out her sweater and if not, then why didn't the defense bring her sweater up??

Also, I still find testimony that mainly talks about the orange fibers being in the SUV, and his house laundry (maybe some laundry from RV also?). I can't find any discussion about comparison or quantities of orange fibers found in the RV. This would fit with him driving from Dad's with attached orange fibers and then going up to bed (although 100's of 1" orange fibers sounds pretty high for just dancing contact). I would think there would be orange fibers (or similar quantities) in the RV if Danielle was wrapped in something orange.
