The warrants and affidavits had been sealed since shortly after the 7-year-old's mother discovered her missing from her bed the morning of Feb. 2. Last week, the 4th District Court of Appeal ordered the documents unsealed.
In one affidavit, San Diego police Detective Terry Torgersen said Westerfield told detectives he submitted items for cleaning at Twin Peaks Cleaners the morning of Feb. 4.
Remaining question:
Why did Detective Torgersen testify he spent days searching for the possible dry cleaners when he had been told by DW already?
Seems the sininster dry cleaning trip had been disclosed to LEO by DW, not kept secret.
