If only we could have seen a courtroom scene like that for Bernie Schwartz, OJ, Terry Lenzner, and the Clintons.

Special Circumstances???

Finally its Over...Not even close.
To: sinkspur
The system worked. And I must say, I have never seen so many uninformed, ignorant opinions expressed in FR as I've seen here. (I don't mean you sinkspur). It's obvious so many of the ignorant don't read the newspapers and haven't followed more than 10 minutes of the trial.

I know what you mean, but we can feel good about the system, which in this case, worked. I'm sure glad this is over. However, the press will milk this for all its worth. The radio station has cancelled airing the PADRES game tonight so they can have around the clock coverage. COVERAGE OF WHAT? It's crazy.

I predict DW will take the stand on appeal.
To: NautiNurse
Maybe he was resolved that he knew it was going to be guilty... I wonder if he was as shaky when he was committing the crime?
To: Freakazoid
You got your verdict, but I think there was enough reasonable doubt going the other way. I just hope they were right.
To: Poohbah
Before we knew..before the verdict..I KNEW he was a sick man when the jurors cried after watching the rape movies. I heard the screams on those movies via real audio.. SO...while I didn't want him convicted of a murder he didn't commit, I did want him convicted if he had child porn.. Justice for those KIDS!!
To: sinkspur
Westerfield will get the death penalty. They better keep this dude in isolation. If they put him in G.P., he'll probably be killed well before the execution can be carried out.

Indeed. This is so wrong. I'm new to this thread, but you people who think Westerfield is innocent are serious aren't you? Wierd.

Yes, and the people who couldn't see past the Van Dam's problems just made me sick. He is guilty all the way. We got justice in our city, Hildy!
To: ~Kim4VRWC's~
I'm cheering... You just can't dismiss all that evidence of blood, hair, and fingerprints. I'm cheering because justice was done it seems in this case...
To: Travis McGee
Guilty? Wait, I thought he was obviously innocent because the poor girl's parents were swingers and they smoked the Devil's Weed. Surely this is tragic.

I'm in the back.
To: BuddhaBoy
Already someone is feeling guilty about the verdict.
Sheesh.
Are you a related to him or what?
To: jpl
Yeah, that would be too bad if there were a paperwork mix up and he were put in the GP...JFK
To: arm958
Possibly we're more familiar with the evidence than you are.
To: crystalk
Nope. Can't introduce new evidence unless there's a retrial.
