No doubt there remain some who'll believe this tripe from a pathetic child killer.

[EllaMinnow]

Good find, Bug!

I expect that quite a few of those who (still) believe him will show up on this thread.

Westerfield gets his talking points from the ST forum.I watched the trial..Love it that he's not happy with San Quentin.He is a monster.Unfortunately monsters don't wear labels.

[xJones]

I wish I could find the links to the 3 videotapes of DW's interrogation sessions with SD detectives that were posted once on FR. His behavior and answers were utterly damning.

[The Great RJ]

Sure he was framed just like poor OJ. The police have so much time on their hands that they can go around just looking for innocent people to frame in elaborate hoaxes. </sarcasm>

Ya'll have gotta see this.

[xJones]

Thank you, that was very good of you!

[Az Joe]

He sounds pretty darn guilty on those tapes! If he was innocent he'd have been screaming it at the top of his lungs.

[cyncooper]

the county's former top prosecutor yesterday confirmed one of the most explosive stories of the case: that Westerfield offered to lead police to the second-grader's body in exchange for escaping the death penalty. It is the first time former District Attorney Paul Pfingst has commented publicly on the aborted plea bargain.

"He wanted to plead guilty to a lesser charge in return for telling us where Danielle's body was," Pfingst said, "so I am disgusted that this pervert would make such a charge in light of what he did to Danielle van Dam and her family."

Well, there goes the old "the prosecutor initiated the proposal of a deal" storyline.

"Uh... It was the parents. Uh... No. It was the cops. Uh... No. It was...."

[mass55th]

Westerfield has been writing to friends since his arrival in January on death row, which he complains is "cold, wet & drafty all the time."

You sent Danielle to a cold, wet grave. My heart bleeds for you, you puke!!

Of course he was framed...so framed that he was in the process of telling the cops where he'd dumped her body in return for their not pursuing the death penalty. It was a blessing her body was discovered when it was.

[CARepubGal]

The guy is scum. It is all "waah poor meeee!" Well, Westerfield will be very very warm soon. I wonder if the millstone for his neck is preordered.

[Freedom2specul8]

Thank you for the ping Red! I couldn't believe it when I read that they were still finding evidence after the trial ended. I wonder what it was. (freepmail)

[EllaMinnow]

I wonder if those who were waiting for "proof" of the plea bargain will believe it now?

PING


Ladies and Gentlemen, I think this is my latest up to date ping list. A few people asked to be added, and some asked to be removed. If anyone wants to be off this ping list, freepmail me..

"... Westerfield offered to lead police to the second-grader's body in exchange for escaping the death penalty. It is the first time former District Attorney Paul Pfingst has commented publicly on the aborted plea bargain."

[Freedom2specul8]

Dang...how could he offer a plea bargain if he was framed? I is cornfoosed!

[Valpal1]

I see old Dave is still trying to work the ninja magic on anyone willing to listen. What a piece of work. Bet he plagarizes his "framed" theories from various internet forums.

He's evil and should be shunned by the media until his execution.

[EllaMinnow]

Most of his "theories" will look pretty familiar to anyone who has checked out webbsleuths or SNJ.

The best thing about this is that it hands his appeal strategy to the state of California on a silver platter.
