Haven't you seen that quote in context? He was asked by Redden if he had ever been in the van Dam house "for a party or ..." and he replied "I've never been invited." He was answering the question as asked.

Dusek badly misrepresented this quote in his closing.

There is only one context for somefolk -- Westerfield killed Danielles in a most heinious fashion and abandoned her little body in the desert.

Yes and even before Feldman Dusek mentioned it in his closing I posted here that it jumped out at me and I thought it was really odd.

It sounded very much like a man that was trying not to lie. You and I would have answered very clearly "Hey no way. Not me. I wasn't ever in that house."

This is as close to asking the question "Did you do it ?" that I can think of without asking. Anyone with an IQ greater that a turnup is going to realize that anything but a no answer is going to raise concern by the police.

At the time, how did he know they didn't have a print or something that tied him to the home ? If he simply answered no and their was some proof of his presence he would be caught lying. But if instead he answered in a way that leave the door open he could manufacture some excuse that he was in garage or something to borrow a tool or something.
