I don't think Danielle was killed on purpose. How she died is going to remain a mystery, unless someone confesses.

The van Dams started spinning their little web of deception ~before~ Westerfield was arrested, i.e., the conflicting change of stories and timelines, etc.

I don't understand the accusations people are making against DW being "weird". He went to the bar, as a single man might do, he stuck to his routine of going camping as he usually did. AND, he lived a private life, but was too neat?! Since when, does that make a person weird?

The van Dams aren't very bright people or have some minor brain damage from the drugs and alcohol, to not stick to their stories. OR they just think we all are stupid.

What gets me is how does DW defend himself? Yes, he went to a bar on a Friday night with a friend, and went camping in his motorhome as was his custom on Saturday and Sunday. He is single, so who is to vouch for him? You have to wonder, how much of this evidence is circumstantial and how much is convincing? The only thing that could really convict him is DNA evidence from Danielle's fingernails or evidence of his DNA in Danielle's room since there is no eyewitness testimony. He has no alibi but who else does? I think what bothers some of us about this case is not that DW is not guilty but that he may not be guilty and that's what "beyond a reasonable doubt" is all about. We are all bothered by this case. Nevertheless, I'm not talking about an unreasonable doubt.

Unless toxicology comes up with something. I know some have postulated that perhaps someone drugged her, and od'ed her accidentally. I don't know that they've released the reports yet? Might not release them to the press in any event, because of the gag order, though. In any event, since the child seemed to have no wounds, etc., you're right: it looks more accidental. It would have to be an OD or suffocation, I'd think.

I don't know about Brenda, but I thought Damon seemed arrogant enough to think that he's smarter than anyone else. (Bet he's a liberal--liberals often make that mistake!)
