However, if suspicion is immediately ruled out, an investigation should cover all parties.
Good grief, I had a friend whose elderly mother passed away in her (the friend's) home a few weeks ago. Even though the woman was in very poor health and 81 years old, the authorities literally treated it as a crime scene when they arrived. I couldn't believe that they even used yellow tape and would not allow the daughter into the mother's room.
Of course this is proper and necessary protocol in this age of elder abuse and euthansia, but nonetheless unfortunate. Until everything is clearly on the up and up, everyone is a suspect.
It seems that the van Dams were eliminated with lightning speed.
That brings me back to the curious timing of the primary here on March 5th and district attorney, Paul Pfingst.
I'm not saying Westerfield is not the guilty one, but I don't think it is as neatly tied with a bow as LE would like it to look or ultimately be.
