), perhaps she dropped a bit of blood on the sidewalk on her way from the park back home. David Westerfield, loading motorhome parked at the curb, steps in that spot of blood from Danielle's nosebleed there on the sidewalk, and carries it to the carpet on the bottom of his shoe. Plausible explanation, certainly.

Plausable? How long would the blood be "wet" enough for someone to step in it and then track it into the motor home? How many steps were required between the point he stepped in it and it reached the carpet? You're asking the jury to invent a defense.

Jam--one little problem with that. The scent dogs did not "hit" on the inside of that motorhome. According to the Forensic K9 Institute, they can hit on scents up to one year old. If she'd been in there that weekend, they would have alerted their handlers in a very noticeable way. That blood was very old. Probably over a year old.

Did you see Dusek's closing arguments? His entire case is built on imagination!
