That Westerfield should have testified, otherwise he is guilty.

I don't watch CourtTV but thanks for sharing. If I was innocent, I would run to the stand, especially in the light of circumstantial evidence. Having served on a 1st degree murder jury, I can tell you that nothing works better than a defendent taking the stand and saying "I didn't do it".

I was amazed that OJ swore his innocence in public but would not swear it in court.

Have you ever had to take the stand in a criminal trial against yourself?

I was amazed that OJ swore his innocence in public but would
not swear it in court.

OJ was given the opportunity to proclaim his innocense to the
court, however the prosecution was not allowed to cross examine him.

I imagine Westerfield would have loved that offer.
