Maybe they will think like I did when I learned the details of Samantha's kidnapping/rape/murder. The first thing I thought was that Samantha's killer also killed Danielle. Too many similarities. It would have been very easy to snatch her down by that park where the backpack was found.

I've thought the same thing about the Samantha case. The body had been dumped in a *very like area* as Danielle. The photo comparisons were remarkable.

Me, too, Judy. Except that I think she could have been snatched from, say, Mervyn's or from her front yard when Brenda went to get pizza.

I do think that Samantha's killer is a much more likely suspect than DW.

The backpack was taken into evidence by the police and never will see the light of day.

When asked by the media "Was that Danielle's?", the LE officer told the media, "They will tell us if was". What does that mean? Means shove off in my book. Means it was a lead they didn't want to follow.

Could also mean it wasn't Danielle's, but if it wasn't, why wasn't that information offered to the press, then or later. Wouldn't have taken but a second to ID it and confirm it. I can see why LE might not want to on scene, but eventually. NOPE. Probably destroyed as it didn't fit the SUSPECT they already had chosen. Would have destroyed their case.
