During a brief hearing Friday, Judge William Mudd told Guylyn Cummins, an attorney representing The San Diego Union-Tribune and other news media, that his reading of a 4th District Court of Appeal opinion -- ordering the release of certain documents -- didn't require turning over anything else.
Westerfield wasn't at the hearing.
Affidavits for five other search warrants were released Thursday. In one, Westerfield is quoted as saying the desert would be a "great place to dump a body" while showing police where he camped the weekend Danielle van Dam disappeared.
Later that day, when a detective said it would be nice to know where 7-year-old Danielle van Dam's body was, Westerfield told him to be patient and police "will get the information they need," the affidavit states.
When asked when that would be, Westerfield said it would be sooner than they think, according to the affidavit.
The affidavits were originally sealed at the request of police in early February and remained out of public scrutiny when defense attorneys filed suit.
The sworn statements were made available at the start of an 11-day break in Westerfield's trial. He is charged with kidnapping and murdering Danielle van Dam, who was reported missing from her Sabre Spring home Feb. 2.
Her body was found dumped along an rural road east of El Cajon Feb. 27.
In a telephone conversation with Superior Court Judge Cynthia Bashant, Detective Randy Alldredge said that when Westerfield was first contacted by police on Feb. 4, he mentioned an upcoming father-daughter dance Danielle was going to attend with her father, Damon.
He said he learned that from Brenda van Dam when they spoke at Dad's Cafe and Steakhouse the night before the girl was discovered missing.
But Brenda van Dam did not tell police she talked to Westerfield about her daughter or a father-daughter dance, according to the detective. Alldredge said Brenda van Dam was later asked to confirm that she had not mentioned the dance, according to the affidavit.
"According to (Brenda) van Dam, the only persons who are aware of the dance are the immediate family members and one neighbor next door, not Westerfield," the affidavit quotes Alldredge as saying.
"Only Danielle van Dam could have told him about the daughter-father dance and only after she had been abducted," the affidavit stated.
That Feb. 4 telephone conversation helped support the first search of Westerfield's home, which occurred Feb. 5.
"SDPD officers are currently watching the (Westerfield) residence and motor home," Alldredge wrote. "I believe evidence will be destroyed if the warrant is not served tonight."
Detectives also wrote that Westerfield "matches FBI profiles regarding a possible suspect of an abduction" and that several strands of blond hair were found on the floor of his Toyota 4Runner.
