Their defense of this monster has just been more nauseating than I can stand.

If we thought he WAS a monster, we wouldn't be defending him. We think he's been railroaded. Believe me, if I thought he had done it, I'd be looking forward to his imprisonment in the General Population in prison. The DP would still be enforced, but it would be much sooner, & slower & more painful, than the needle.

Yes, there was A spot of blood in the motor home, A hair and A fingerprint. There is no evidence at all as to how long they have been there. I think of all the places I hid in hide'n'seek games as a kid, & how much DNA I left around in other people's toolsheds, under their porches, etc. I would have regarded an unlocked motor home as a gift from God.

If Westerfield could not have been in the Van Damm house, & could not have dropped the body, I don't see how he could have committed the crime, at least not alone. If there was even the tiniest whiff of an accomplice in dropping the body, or some hint of where the unknown accomplice KEPT the body before dropping it, I'd be more comfortable with this verdict.

You are absolutely correct! Doesn't it bother you just a teensy bit that there were NO, Zero, Nada of Westerfield's own fingerprints in his RV?

Take some time and smell the bleach!

Sorry, that just doesn't convince.

You ignore plain, simple evidence--or marginalize it--terms like "spot of blood," "a couple of minutes of kiddie porn video," etc.--and instead opt for open-ended questions you try to portray as closed-ended ("How could he carry the body?" "How about the bugs?" etc.)

NOW you want to ignore that TWELVE INDIVIDUALS with no stake in the case, and what's more, with COMPLETE ACCESS to ALL the information, including information you haven't seen and NEVER will see, looked at all of it and UNANIMOUSLY concluded that he is guilty.

Now, consider this: If they put him to death, that tells you how ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED they were.

From there, you can only retreat into still more conspiracy theories involving paid-off jurors, etc.

You will ignore the fact that there is no REASON for any such shenanigans other than to gall and frustrate people like you.

I won't even go into the implications for monomania on your part that this brings up!
