And for that, you will sentence him to death?

For he certainly had nothing to do with the fate of Danielle van Dam, how can you prove he ever even NOTICED her? She and her brothers played in his living room while he talked with Brenda, Danielle's mother!

Wait until the full details of THAT relationship come out on appeal.

Hitler was framed too.

And OJ is totally innocent.

Ted Bundy was a misunderstood victim of a series of coincidences.

Uh, Hello... do you just arbitrarily pick and choose your facts? I suppose her blood on his jacket, the jacket by the way he hid telling the police about being taken to the cleaners.... and in his motorhome and the prints in the home and the fibers on the girls body are all just figments of someones imagination... this sicko is without question guilty... the needle franky is far too good for him.

To all freepers that have been following this case on the other threads from the beginning.

I am going to ask you all very nicely to not treat the State vs. Westerfield newbies who will post today on the verdict with any garbage.

Take it to the smokey back room or I believe this thread will be removed.

Respectfully, Alisa

New facts usually cannot be presented in an appeal. If he failed to introduce evidence at trial, he will not be allowed to introduce it on appeal.

Are you familiar with appellate practice? No evidence not in the record from the trial can be considered. So, nothing will "come out" on appeal. Evidence not admitted may be argued as points of error, but we would all know about them from offers of proof.

Nice juror you would be--- deciding a case based on whether someone's facial expressions indicated they were guilty, rather than facts such as bloodstains in mobile homes.
