It's sorta like trying to converse with Murrymom. GOODGAWD, we've seen what it would be like to have Murrymom on a jury. I gotta get outta here, too. IRREGARDLESS of any "facts" that someone may pull outta their a** to prove westerfield's innocence.

Of course it did...especially on a jury that wasn't sequestered the week Samantha Runnion was kidnapped, raped, killed, and dumped nude by the side of the road - not more than 150 miles from where Danielle lived.

Kim, You have done great work and stuck to your guns. I commend you for that. I think most of the DW defenders like myself expected either guilty or hung jury. I am a long time freeper ( add long over a year to my sign on date). I am also a conservative activist who has worked on campaigns when I have time and led a charge over 2 years ago in NY to make sure HIllary was not elected.

I have done my best on conservative issues when I can. I have 2 young kids and a great hubby. I am sorry we do not agree on DW, I wish we could. I simply am just not convinced this is the guy. Perhaps crazy but even your posts have not swayed me from that conviction and I have tried and tried again. MY husband believes he is the guy but I know he has not followed case at all other than what I tell him or the media tells him in that little sniplet. Perhaps he just likes to disagree with me.

Anyway bottom line is I just dont believe this is the guy. I have tried hard to believe it him. When I first came on these threads it was to defend the Van Dam family with no notice of DW guilt. As time has gone on I cant help but blame VD family for the position they are in today.

All families in this case are ruined. Very sad. I dont find today justice for Danielle.

Anyway good work and I appreciate your stamina in this case.

Well, Dusek and Pfingst have a GREAT record. Thanks be to Detectives Ott and Keyser! They've done such a fine job for them in the past.

I'm not sure who Murrymom is but from this post I get the general idea! Warning: anyone who has reached this point should note that the sane people have jumped overboard and are swimming to shore, returning to solid land and a place where Westerfield is guilty!

You'll be glad to know that the police chief just issued a statement. He stands behind the work of the criminalists etc.. so, focus all of your conspiracy theories fres, get the police corruption ideas lined out. Post them in a clear manner so we can see if you are right or not.

(improperly photographed & never typed to see if it was blood

I guess it does not fit your warped sense of logic, when the fact is that the defense attorney complimented the San Diego Police Department on their work and the evidence they presented.

Jaded - actually I was responding to those uninformed posters who didn't know that Westerfield had child pornography on his computer and those who did not know there was blood evidence and DNA that directly connected Westerfield and Danielle.

But I predict: not guilty.

Too bad Westerfield wasn't freed so he could spend the rest of his life hunting down the real murderer, perhaps enlisting OJ's help.

Where did all these people come from?

This trial has certainly been an epiphany. Things are actually what they've been saying on FR for a long time.

You mean the screen impressions, spam e-mail images, and deleted files? Or, the ones his son accessed?

Simple statistics, Hal. There are more of them using Windows.

You're using circular logic. We know that virtually all of the kiddie porn creeps use Windows, but we need to determine why they are attracted to a Microsoft operating system for their sick lifestyle. This pattern needs to be publicized so that the public can recognize the warning signs of a potential child molester.

Also, if you have that much time on your hands, you need a new hobby.

If it saves the life of one child, it's worth it.

The point is that YOU were not a part of the jury, so have nothing to back up your claim, except what you saw on TV.
The jury, on the other hand, was privy to all of the evidence, and came to the proper verdict.

There are actually more of us who have followed this trial closely. Watching the trial and reading the transcripts. We don't rely on Court TV or the Soviet Union Tribune for our facts.

"Where did all these people come from?"

Waiting in the woodworks, so then they could spring out and say, "I haven't been following this case, but there's no doubt in my mind that he's guilty. (the teevee people told me he was!)"

Per testimony: Westerfield's motorhome was unlocked often. You think the neighborhood kids wouldn't check it out? Especially a little girl that was used to being away from the parents (Brenda left Danielle in a changing room once to go to *another store*)?

Now, why couldn't the defense find a kid to say that they had been in the motorhome snooping around? Perhaps none of the parents would let their kids testify - especially on behalf of a man the SDPD had convinced them was a child molestor/murderer.

Let's assume that you're correct. Westerfield raped and then killed Danielle. Shouldn't there be more physical evidence than they found? There should be prints everywhere and DNA everywhere. They found 1 (ONE) fingerprint near a cabinet and a spot of DNA which may (or may not) have been blood.

You need to read the testimony. And by the way, Nancy Grace is the Court TV wench that has been calling for Westerfield's head since the beginning of the trial.
