The journalist that took that photo had not crossed police tape otherwise they would have been arrested. So what they saw is what WA saw. i.e no tree.

The ‘crime scene’ was Dan’s property and was taped off. I can’t say for sure that the photo wasn’t taken from just outside the north roadblock – its possible, but I don’t buy your argument…..a journalist could have gotten past (walked) the roadblocks – I agree they would not have been permitted on the property…. but it was a good thought – maybe things are different in Australia :)

By statements of at least three law enforcement officers / detectives (Isom, Brennan and I forgot the female officer’s name) that all testified that the north roadblock was set up 2 to 5 houses north of Dan’s home.

which is it 2 or 5?

Note 5 houses down still gives WA line of sight.

Three witness for the state gave varying distances from 2 to 5 houses away and therein lies the problem. Which is exactly why I’ve been saying in a Wendi trial (if there is one) this will be an issue for the prosecution. As I said several times if it was 5 houses away, you can’t see Dan’s house from that location - double check your claim using Google earth street view. Do we trust Office Brennon after he was asked “could you see Dan’s house from where you set up the roadblock” Remember his responses? He said ~ “Seems likely”. Same guy that changed his testimony about the occupant of the vehicle – Decoste called him out. Sorry, but if we are going to analyze this case objectively, we can’t ignore or hide from bad facts.

But then if there was tape 5 houses down, are you suggesting multiple news reporters broke the law and climbed over the tape to get video and photos?

Was the 'stock the bar' party a suitable party for young children?

The question is not whether she saw the house the question is whether she saw 15 cars, on the street , and on the driveway. We know the house is not visible from the street.

And yes, why did they (Isom and Brannon) not know how many houses down the tape was, when it looks like there was tape on the utility pole RIGHT at Dans house!. Court Tv reported that Brannon said 2-6 houses (a big difference) away and clearly we don’t see that. No one frustrated me more than Brannon. He was standing there. He should have known. I give Isom a pass bc he was at the house.

No, I’m not suggesting that. What I’m saying is there are no pictures, at least that I’ve seen, that show where the north roadblock was set up. All we have to go on is what was given in previous testimony - which was that it was set up anywhere from 2 to 5 (maybe 6?) houses away. You showed a picture taken from north of Dan’s home and all I’m saying is we don’t know where that was taken from. It may have been taken from outside the north perimeter or possibly from inside the perimeter.

Take a close look at the picture posted last night. Do you see anything close to15 vehicles? I’m sure most have a mental image of multiple vehicles, flashing lights and a chaotic scene - in that pic we don’t see that. We don’t even know exactly where the roadblock was set up and we don’t know what kind of view Wendi may have had from outside the police roadblock north of Dan’s home or how many vehicles were there when she arrived at roadblock. From 4 to 5 houses away, you likely can’t even see vehicles if there were any in the driveway.

There were cars there for awhile. Some came, some left and there were some on that long driveway which is also not visible from the road. I do realize I said that she should have seen 15 cars. Even if she saw the ones visible fromt he street there were at least 5 we can see. And it was right in front of her house.
Since she drove down that road all the time as a shortcut, she would know which house it was when she drove up to it.
