Oh noooo, not the cheese thread!

dem, Feldman was brutal. He caught Goss in 5 Mathmatical errors and reduced him to what I can only describe as a "slinky"..

Of course, most of the VD groupies think Dusek won the day..no surprise there.

Feldman won, IMHO, when he caught the fuzzy Math errors, and said "Whoops"! Too cute.

An insect expert testifying for the prosecution in the David Westerfield case said Tuesday that flies appeared to have colonized Danielle van Dam's body sometime between Feb. 1 and Feb. 14, far earlier than defense witnesses have estimated.

Under cross-examination, however, defense attorney Steven Feldman questioned Goff's numbers and got the expert to admit he made some miscalculations.

M. Lee Goff, an entomologist and chairman of the Forensic Sciences Department of Chaminade University in Honolulu, said his review of the crime scene photos, morgue photos, weather reports and other evidence suggest that Danielle's body was exposed to insects as early as Feb. 1 and no later than Feb. 14.

"We're working on an estimate. We're not running a stopwatch here," Goff said.

The defense has contended that there was no way Westerfield could have placed the victim's body where it was found in the East County community of Dehesa, because he was under close surveillance by police beginning Feb. 5.

2 + 2 = 4
