Hey, cyn! I've been watching the evening news shows (Larry King, Hannity & Colmes, etc) A lot of them seem to think that for the penalty phase DW might admit he did it. That goes back to something I found interesting at the time of the jury instructions, although no one seemed to be talking about it -- Feldy got the court to give a voluntary intoxication defense. In essence, that was asking for the jury either to find that he didn't do it, or, if he did do it, he was drunk. So, I wonder if his defense at the penalty phase will be yes, I did it, but it was an accident, I was so drunk I didn't know what I was doing, I got scared and dumped the body, etc. Now IF that happens, do you suppose anybody in the smokey room will change their views? I'm betting they are so far gone that it wouldn't.

Thank you for sharing the views you heard on those shows. Very interesting. Of course we will see in a week or so what he decides to do.

No, I don't think his defenders would admit he is guilty. They would claim he is admitting it because he has no choice if he wants to save his life.

Westerfield will never admit that he murdered Danielle. He will lie to the bitter end.

He knows what awaits child molester/killers in a state prison. He should be begging for the death penalty.

There are a couple who have admitted they will only believe in his guilt if comes from poor Dave's own lips.

So they might, but they may just claim he was forced to admit guilt to save himself from the death penalty.
