CNN's Nancy Grace recounting how important it is that the prosecutor got the entomologist to acknowledge insect infestation could have occured earlier.

Yep......how convenient that she probably left out the part where the entomologist says there is no reason he can theorize that would explain why the insect activity that would indicate an earlier PMI was absent.

It's pretty clear that the odds of Faulkner's PMI estimates being inaccurate are very, very slim.

I really would suggest that no one form his or her opinion based on punditry.

Is it not interesting that Dusek and the DA's office use Faulkner and his faulty bug science in other murder cases with success. Now all of a sudden it's unreliable. Hmmmm, can you say appeal?

Yes, punditry = definitely iffy. And of course, Nancy Grace is a former prosecutor, so it stands to reason she would see most cases from that perspective.

I don't know from bugs, variances there seem iffy too. But I don't see how the jury can get around:

1. Danielle's blood found on Westerfield's clothes.

2. Westerfield fibers found on Danielle's body.
