On Saturday morning February 2 2002 7-year-old Danielle van Dam was reported missing by her mother Brenda who had been out partying with friends at a local bar until almost 2:00 a.m. Danielles father Damon had been left behind at home to babysit their three young children and their dog a sleek gray Weimaraner. He said that he had put the kids to bed cracked their doors and fell asleep in the master bedroom along with the dog and with the door closed. Shortly before 2 a.m. he opened the bedroom door and let the dog out to greet his wife knowing she would be home soon. Some people like KFMB talk show host Rick Roberts began to question the parents behavior after it was reported in the media that they were swingers and they did not check on their children even after they said they found two outside doors open that night. Danielles body was discovered at Dehesa on February 27. The police had almost immediately suspected neighbor David Westerfield as he went away that weekend leaving his garden hose lying untidily across his neat front yard.
