So, if this is the text that KIM and CYN and whereever they got the idea from, then it was NOT DW saying (originating) the statement SPUR OF THE MOMENT.

It was him responding to REDDEN stating 'SPUR OF THE MOMENT'.

IN court this would be called LEADING THE WITNESS.

DW then clarifies why he would agree to SPUR OF THE MOMENT.

So, my point all along has been that those that say DW LIED TO POLICE are trying to take what he said OUT OF CONTEXT, and I believe I am right.

If DW was the perp, he would have been trying to conceal as much as possible from the police in the interview. Well, it would have been so easy to say, "I planned the trip ____ago." Right?

It was him responding to REDDEN stating 'SPUR OF THE MOMENT'.

Read it again. Redden asks if it was planned or spur of the moment:

"REDDEN: Okay, so was this spur of the moment or something you had planned?"

Look, I never said DW "lied", I do think he misrepresented the trip if he did tell his friend and Neal he was planning to go camping.

What is this leading stuff? You don't think DW was capable of saying "I was planning on going but originally planned on going to the desert and changed my mind and went to the Strand, but that didn't work out after all".

I agree with your interpretation of the "spur of the moment". In my limited reading of the transcript, I've seen Redden leading and attempting to put words into DW's mouth while putting on a "dumb" act and saying how he has problems remembering stuff.

What is the difference between spur of the moment and planned?

I thought it was odd to hear him say it on the recording..per ctv KNOWING that it wasn't a spur of the moment..according to his son Neal.

From nycgal's post

REDDEN: Okay, so was this spur of the moment or something you had planned? 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
