Just popped in for a quick read. Won't see ya till next week.

I am just not seeing the humor tonight fres. This lack of humor on my part, must have something to do with hearing about the following: "At one point, he slammed his hand again and again on the jury box rail to simulate, he said, Danielle's head striking Westerfield's headboard as he raped her. The image was too much for Brenda van Dam, Danielle's mother. She leapt up from her seat at the back of the courtroom and ran to the door in tears "

God please bless our children.
Please protect them from harm...
Please allow us to see evil for what it is.--Amen


Pain, hurt and anguish comes from evil, not God...

G'nite

Kim, IMO, this is a great example of the high drama hyperbole, that the majority of Dusek's closing argument consisted of. It's sad indeed, to see a prosecutor resort to such cheap theatrics to win a capital case and condemn a man to death based on such ridicules antics.

Why do I say ridicules? Please put your emotions aside for a moment and think what Dusek was implying and then tell me how 4 foot tall, Danielle's head, could possibly have been pounding against the headboard, if a six foot plus, DW had been raping her. If it's physically possible, at all, maybe you can explain it, but it certainly defies my imagination. JMO

Understand that that little dose of pain and hurt came from Dusek.

Someone accused me of posting "imaginings" as fact. What was Dusek doing when he did that little banging thing? Maybe Dusek should have hired an anime artist to make a cartoon of his traumatic little fiction, so we could understand a little more clearly what he wants us to imagine occurred.

Maybe he should have brought in one of 3-4 foot tall dolls, put on a DW mask and raped and murdered the doll while laughing and saying things like "I am DW and I am evil, I am raping Danielle, I hate children, Ha Ha Ha!"

That would have helped in our search for truth, and helped the jury get a good grip on the pacts of the case.

I have a great and mighty scary edition of the Brother's Grimm collection of fairy tales -- far less redaction and cleansing than most heavily edited editions that are available -- that will give you even better fantasy frights than that, ma'am.
