2nd Bug Expert Bolsters Westerfield Defense: (Dusek Melting Down Before Juries Eyes!!)

NBC/San Diego ^ | July 22, 2002 | NBC/San Diego

[Spunky]

there are only 9 experts in this field.
The prosecution originally hired Faulkner but the defense called him.

There are 9 certified experts. Faulkner is not one of the nine.

It appears that the certified expert pretty much agreed with Faulkner's report.

Did the trial end after the sidebar or what??

In your best observation techniques, how many times times have you witnessed people defending the van dam's disgusting extra-curricular activities on these threads? (NOTE: fres is waiting for your answer too)

I'm not sure...many have said that it doesn't matter what they did or who they slept with. While I find their activities unseemly, I don't think it very relevant to Danielle's murder, and so haven't really paid much attention to the posts on that stuff.

[Rheo]

Thank you for the clarification.

I don't buy the snuck in to play one for several reasons Why not? I'm willing to listen to what you have to say on this.

First and foremost, no evidence in record that any other children can testify to being in there (I would expect the defense to trumpet this if there were). No evidence that any adults witnessed children entering.

The lack of finger prints by Danielle if she did play in there, there should be more. Especially in that so many un I'd prints were found.

The presence of the hair in the trap. The likelihood that a hair would have shed, plus found its way in the drain, plus got caught and not washed down is slim to none in my opinion.

THe presence of the blood or blood like substance.

The combined presence of three unlikely sources of physical evidence that are each unlikely to be left strains my ability to see this as reasonable.

---

Assuming the probality of each one might be as follows: Sole fingerprints =80%.

Hair in trap = 80% a single hair was dropped (at rate of 1 every 15 mins), 50% chance it landed in place other than carpet (where it would be vaccumed), another 50% chance Westerfield wash floor, picked up hair and rinsed it in sink, 25% chance the single hair lodged in trap. .80*.50*.50*.25=.05%,

The chance of leaving behind two blood or blood like spots while playing in van ? 20% each or 4% for two.

The combined chance that all three occured on one visit (.80*.05*.04)= 0.16% chance.

I take it that no one knows for sure..

Well, if you are correct.....that will be such a shock.

[Henrietta]

how can you be so convinced that DW is guilty if you haven't followed the trial?

His Rice Crispies told him so!

[Rheo]

The presence of the hair in the trap. The likelihood that a hair would have shed, plus found its way in the drain, plus got caught and not washed down is slim to none in my opinion.

How do you explain the other blonde hairs in the sink drain that were not Danielle's?

[CAPPSMADNESS]

I based my opinion of O.J. Simpson's guilt on the large amount of direct and circumstantial evidence that was found at the crime scene, the bronco and at his residence. So at least we are able to agree on something - OJ IS GUILTY!!! LOL! :)

[Henrietta]

If either attorney has been caught lying, then that behavior should be open for jury consideration

Maybe it should be, but it isn't, and that's that!

As far as drinking the Kool Aid goes, I'm just telling you what the law is...you don't have to like it!

[VRWC_minion]

Your argument is that Van Dams are immoral therefore Westerfield didn't do it ?

[UCANSEE2]

You agree she was in the RV then ?

Fingerprints are the evidence I have accepted that show that , at some time, Danielle had been in the MH.

The 'blood' and hair evidence are no proof at all. I can explain a scenario where her hair and 'DNA' (blood) could be in the MH and yet she never entered it.

Wanna know how ?

Danielle , according to the lack of a hit by tracking dogs, had not been in the MH for approximately 2 weeks before the dogs searched it.

[demsux]

Yep, after sidebar mudd released the jury saying the lawyers "had some things to work out"...not having trial tomorrow either

[Henrietta]

That, like everything else stated so far by Poohbah that I can see, is just his opinion.

Yes, and aren't we lucky that he favors us with his uninformed opinion?

[UCANSEE2]

The number the DA had been tossing around since Feb was 67,000 pics. We now know that was one huge lie LE and their media shills kept pushing off on the unsuspecting.

Oh, come on, you don't mean to tell us that the PROSECUTION was the first one to LIE about the PORN in an attempt to win????????

[Poohbah]

I don't recall rattling your chain, pal.

[Rheo]

That is interesting....ruining my chances of this being done before I leave for vacation..dang.

[Freedom2specul8]

He's the grand protector..comes out when one of his dear ones get insulted. Interesting tactic..hit and run smear/baseless insulting post. Just ignore him..it's doubtful doc will reply.

[Jaded]

I'm sorry if I shocked you with that announcement. Really. I found it hard to believe at first, too.(Sigh)

[VRWC_minion]

There are 9 certified experts. Faulkner is not one of the nine.

Why didn't they call a certified expert ? What determines certified ?
