Did I say Westerfields DNA and prints? Are you pretending not to know what I'm referring to?

[dread78645]

Are you pretending not to know what I'm referring to?

No. I know exactly what you are referring to.

So far, the last known contact between DW and Danielle was Tuesday Jan 29th. Nothing on Wednesday, or Thursday, nor Friday.

Stealth Ninja Dave (drunk by his own report) decides in the wee hours of Saturday to sneak into a alarmed house, containing 3 kids a dog and two (nominal) adults; abduct a little girl and then kill her.
Then this clever fiend manages to wiggle his nose and make all traces of himself dis-appear from the scene.

The bastard !

</sarcasm> for the clue impaired

[Greg Weston]

So in every crime that has ever been commited in human history the perps have always in every instance left "traces of themselves" behind?

[bimbo]

Until there is proof linking DW to the VD house and Danielle to DW, I can't see a convicition.

Nor I. I do not understand why there is all this testimony about hairs without having the determining DNA tests completed.

[Greg Weston]

"Danielle to DW"

That's already been established. That's why DW is in so much trouble right now IMO. If the DNA and fingerprints fit...

[Jaded]

Westerfield doesn't have a brother. He passed away a number of years ago.

[Lurking Libertarian]

The strange twist here is that DW may be fried with the help of "child porno", that the Supreme Court declared was legal, after DW was charged!

That virtual child porn may be legal, per se, does not mean that it can't be evidence of DW's intent and motive.

[Jaded]

I believe the porn amount is 8,000 to 10,000. This number is out of the original 67,000 IMAGES. Far cry from the original number.

[Jaded]

How much of a search for truth is it actually? Especially when prosecution mis-represents facts? What about the false leaks? Where was the search for the truth?

In court where is the search for truth? SDPD/Prosecution failed to test evidence that indicates someone else. Explain ALL of the fibers, hairs and animal hairs. What about the finger prints. Pretty selective search for truth, ya ask me.

[Jaded]

Why do so many want to merrily skip by these facts? I find that perplexing. There was also some statement about what was found on one of the discs in a folder called "Neal's Music". Why is that not relevant? I personally would like to see Neal on the stand and answer these questions. Would it make a difference if he downloaded the animes when he was 15? What would that make him?

[Jaded]

It was my understanding that the cd's and zips were made during a blind back-up so DW could change the hard drives out.

[Jaded]

I understood it was blue. That's odd why she would have blue paint chips under her fingernails, hmmm. I'm sure there is a logical explanation. I must go now and check for white paint chips under my nails....

[Jaded]

But they weren't all over the RV.

[Jaded]

But what about all of the other DNA found in the RV? Oh, I forgot, it's irrelevant.

[winodog]

Where is the refugee site you speak of?

[spectre]

It's super secret...I'd tell you, but then they'd have to...well, you know the rest...

Hooray for JacqueJ!!! KNITTING RULES!!!

Causing the death of another as the result of/in process of another crime is Felony Murder. In this case the crime was kidnap, the victim died/was found dead not of natural causes. This is a felony murder case.

Nude, suffocated, seven year olds do not turn up in trash dumps through accidents or natural events.

Since seven year olds have no legal ability to consent to any actions done to them, any events leading to her death are the sole responsibility of the person acting upon her, and with greater expectation of intentionality as all adults are expected to act in a manner as to protect children from harm.

Premeditation in this case of a murdered kidnap victim is implied in the act of kidnap. The only defense against the charge of murder in a kidnap case is the return of a live victim. Once a kidnap victim is found dead, it is automatically felony murder. The law is very harsh with kidnapers, has been since the Lindbergh kidnaping.

We have KIF news radio in Los Angeles. Same station that Rush is on. In the mornings Bill Handel is on, Matt Drudge often subs, and in afternoon they have Ken and John show. They have Laura Ingel sitting in on the trial and reporting to them on their radio shows all day. They may be reporting a few things she is observing that we are missing on the TV coverage. Or perhaps Laura is making things up. I don't know, she is there at the trial and I am not. Live stream is avail. at www.KIFRadio.com I doubt that Laura is making these things up. She would be fired post haste.
