Despite the jury's recommendation, the judge has the authority to reduce Westerfield's sentence to life without parole, a move that would be rare but not unprecedented for a San Diego judge.

I'm hoping the judge will have a heart-to-heart with him,and offer him life without parole in exchange for telling where other bodies were disposed of. I have a hard time believing that this was his first one. Not at his age. I know this won't bring any of them back from the dead,but it may help their greiving parents to finally be able to bury them.

If I'm remembering it right. Judge Mudd was the last to do just exactly that.
