True but considering the sheeple attitude toward anything of this sort is not a big deal unless "serious" illegal drugs or child porn etc is involved. I always wondered about this plastic necklace she wore ALL THE TIME. I read somewhere that the mother said she wore it for two years? Does this make sense? If true, what child would want this on for that length of time? Why would her mother allow her to wear this cheap plastic thing when expensive pictures were taken of her? Why would a "retired" detective be the in between the VD(s) and LE? What gave her the power to "help" direct the investigation because that is exactly what she did. Why didn't the LE tell her to butt out. Was DW the only single male living near the VD(s)? The perfect patsy.......

All great questions. I hope they get answered but doubt they will. The VDs have a lot more support than DW has. In fact, I don't remember anyone besides his family, close friends and most posters on these threads believing him to be railroaded.

I too am puzzled about the necklace.
#1 -- Cheap jewelry, plastic or otherwise, usually breaks in a very short time. How in the world did she wear it 24/7 for 2 years?
#2 -- Most mothers would have at least "asked" her (Have you noticed how the VDs always "asked" their children and never "told" them to do anything?) to take it off for bath and shampoo, to make sure she was clean. Think about the 'tan line' on your wrist from wearing a watch and your fingers from wearing rings.
#3 -- I agree bigtime about wearing the necklace in those Heirloom portraits. I know how expensive they are!

Re: that brown plastic necklace They were a big fad two summers ago. The thing is, most girls drop these fads, almost as fast as they pick them up.

It is possible that someone outside the family unit may have given it to her, and Danielle started treating it as a personal talisman. If she kept wearing it for two years after it was popular, it must have developed some special meaning for her.

The really odd thing is that it didn't break in those intervening years. Those plastic loops weren't the most sturdy of things - my daughter went through two of them - how did that one last so long if she wore it all the time?
