Post in question being #531 where I said "possibly" because it has not been offered to the jury as evidence yet.
To: theirjustdue
I thought I did....but obviously should have expanded my comments. If there were illegal actions taken by LE, like that which was claimed in the OJ trial...it needs to be exposed.. I think I'll come back tomorrow after a good night rest..maybe I can make more sense.

Kim could we compare the Smart case with this one?
In Utah we have a straight up religious family..they are not hanging out with sexual perverts every week end and inviting them into their home to look over the kids. They are not smoking dope in tha garage..
BUT they are suspects..they and the extended family have been checked out carefull
Switch to San Diego the home of hedionism
Mom and Dad screw strangers in the bedroom down the hall from their kids..they get drunk and do drugs in the house. They have drug dealers and perverts in the house
And they are cleared of suspicion in hours That is the problem..swinning cops ,pols afraid of "exposure" what ever reason the VD's and their friends were never really checked out.
I think this is a set up ...but if I am wrong I want the guy hung
But Kim even if the guy is innocent He has lost everything..he is a broken and now poor man..he will NEVER be trusted around kids again..
That jerk on court TV was speculating today about the other hairs..she said Ohhhhh what if this means there were other children....
Lord help us..Can this man have a fair trial..If innocent can he get his good name back?
To: cyncooper
WRT:your 600, that's what opening statements are! precursor to evidence, giving the juries an idea of what they'll see. I tried to point out in my earlier mistated post that if DUSEK has lied to the jury in his opening statement, it could make him lose his case.
Good night all

Can I catch up with you tomorrow? I'm fading fast. :-\
To: RnMomof7; All
Was anybody still listening at the close of court today? Did Judge Mudd say anything about making a ruling today that could have been the banning of the VDs from the courtroom?

Very interesting about the sunglasses - hadn't heard about that before. I really need to catch up on the transcripts. Just something else that the prosecution chose to ignore? That type of thing is very unsettling to me - wouldn't a good way of proving your theory be to try and disprove it - look for exculpatory evidence as well - if nothing is found your theory would be strengthened, right?

I heard about the sunglasses but had forgotten it. Wonder how much stuff the jurors are going to forget?

Superior Court Judge William Mudd said Monday he got a letter that will require a short hearing before testimony resumes in the David Westerfield trial Tuesday.
Mudd asked prosecutors and defense attorneys to appear in his courtroom at 8:50 a.m., 10 minutes earlier than usual. He also asked them to keep copies of the letter secured in their offices overnight.

Kim said:
"If law enforcement wasn't convinced dw was guilty, they wouldn't have presented the caes to the prosector."
Surely you don't mean that, Kim... I hate to be the one to point out to you the times "Law Enforcement" in this country has rushed to judgement, and has been tragically and horribly wrong! Maybe others can help here, for I am worried that Kim will think I am piling on, but I can't believe she meant what she typed!

Just something else that the prosecution chose to ignore?May I point out that Savage's answers to his questions were "no"?
To: mommya
Wonder who found the sunglasses?....would Feldman bring them up if they didn't help his case?...or just bring them up to show the jury that the prosecution didn't bring them up...like the shell casing.

I missed the "possibly" in your post... went back to check, and still couldn't see it, but it is late, and my eyes are tired...
I quoted your entire post on the thread I was responding to, didn't leave any words out, honest...

To: ~Kim4VRWC's~
Yaeh, You're right, they would have dropped the case right then.....NOT. We may or may not hear the whole story before this trial is over.
