Maybe she had a sex date made for her by Mom and did not want to keep it, was being rebellious. Had to be coerced.
I do not think that poor Danielle was any virgin (at 7!!) and I do think that her own father was part of the reason. This shouts so loud, that the claims of some DW involvement, I can not hear by comparison. I think the girl had left home before DW ever got home on Friday or came into any position where he could have got her, indeed how could he have got her if she wasn't there in the first place, was already gone?
Danielle became frightened, no one home..what to do? So, she walks out of the house, and goes either down the street or next door.."Where's my Daddy?"...is the only thing on her mind. She wanders away from the house, and the rest is unknown history..
Now, I'm not saying the new people next door have anything to do with this...BUT..I do want to know if her scent used when the dog search led the searchers "next door" and not to DW's, then DID they search the house next door?
Then, we also have the 13 registered sex offenders who live in the neighborhood? ..sw
