What I'd like to know is how long has he been their neighbor and his background.

That's the thing. He's been there for about two years and they don't really know him at all. Supposedly, Danielle sold him Girl Scout Cookies a few weeks back. That is the only connection. He is twice divorced and had two older children, I think in their twenties.

On the UnionTribune website there is a forum like this one and Westerfield's former brother-in-law said that in no way would Westerfield be capable of doing anything like this.

Go figure that one...

As each day goes by, I get angrier and angrier because I think that the chances of her being found safe, are dwindling. I hope for the parent's sake, they are not guilty! There will be such an outcry ...

Two years huh? I thought that child stealing was a crime that one did over and over and that there was some sort of vunerability that one could see in one's character who did those sorts of things. Two years is an awfully long time for someone like that to be crime free.
