We know one thing my friend...the child's DNA was found on Westerfield's clothes, in his closet, and in various locations.

I haven't read or heard any testimony or evidence thus far where Danielle Van Dam's DNA was found in David Alan Westerfield's closet. Please cite from evidence or testimony to verify this particular assertion.

I am aware that on 1/4 inch blood spot was found in DAW's motorhome that scent dogs did not pick up (which makes me curious as to how long it was there for.) I am aware of on 3/16 inch DNA spot on DAW's jacket shoulder. I am aware of one single hair with a root that likely matches Danielle Van Dam that was found in the drain of DAW's motorhome and again there is no indication of how long it has been there.
I am aware of a ring finger print and a small finger print on one of the cupboards in DAW's motorhome that likely matches Danielle. Again, there is no indication of how long those two partial fingerprints had been there and its noted that they were covered in a fine coating of dust so it seems possible they were there for some time.

Other than these bits of evidence, I know of no hard evidence that links David Alan Westerfield to Danielle Van Dam.

I also know that scent dogs did not pick up DAW's scent inside the Van Dam house, which could be accounted for by my HAZMAT Dave Theory. And I am also aware that the scent dogs did not pick up any trace of Danielle Van Dam in David Alan Westerfield's home.

I also know that Forensic Entymologist Faulkner was initially hired by the prosecusion and last week testified for the defense and clearly indicated that in his opinion, Danielle Van Dam's body was not at the Dehesa Road dump site until at least February 16, 2002 which is about two weeks after David Alan Westerfield had a GPS tracking unit on his vehicles and was under constant surveilance by police and media.
