Other motions remained sealed on the judge's orders. The sealed motions discuss other potential evidence in the case, including evidence that Westerfield's lawyers label in court documents as "nearly as explosive as a confession." The lawyers didn't specify the nature of this evidence.

Westerfield's lawyers want to keep these sealed motions secret from the public through Westerfield's trial and until all his post-trial appeals are exhausted if he's convicted, according to documents made public today.

The documents unsealed today contain some information that hadn't yet become public in the case. Among other things, prosecutors say Danielle's hair was found inside Westerfield's motor home.




So you're saying that a defense atty might say something publicly...that is negative about his client?

No, I'm not saying that at all.

And maybe you're right. From the article you cite to and the context in which it arose, maybe it is 3rd-person stuff. If it is, I would guess that maybe the state was trying to get "similar evidence" in, into the trial portion -- the evidence that WAS admitted in the penalty portion -- the weirdo teeth rubbing, adjusting of the girls' pajamas evidence.
