The defense and prosecutors were both disappointed Thursday when Judge Sullivan denied the plea agreement that would have seen Daniel Keyser receive a particularly small sentence for allegedly kidnapping and assaulting his former girlfriend. Both sides had large contingents in the courtroom. And while the alleged victim was pleased with the outcome of the hearing — she did not approve of the deal and wants the case to go to trial — pretty much everyone was surprised by the decision. The assistant prosecutor said he had never had this happen before. Now a jury trial awaits Keyser.

Keyser is innocent! The medical records prove she is lying!!!
Wow, I cannot believe that these hardworking Taxpayers that might be paying for this trial, have come to this type of Justice, a Political Venue! What happened to Justice being served by knowing the Truth vs Ms. Holland's vindictive lies and accusations. If Dan had done all this, Trust me, she would be messed or dead had this happened. This is a 'Fatal Attraction' and he does not want her, therefore he will pay. Dan has moved on and her jealousy is raging. Give us all a break and let Dan go. His Children & family needs him home. He is an asset to society, not her. Ms Holland needs the help, believe me. She walks, stalks and hangs out with all her Male friends to get them on her side to try and win but Justice always prevails, I hope as a True American. I am quite sure if her children could speak it would be volumes. Let Dan out he has served his time for her lies. I believe in the American Dream and Dan belongs on this earth. He has alot to give and deserves better that the cards he has been dealt along with alot of railroading in my opinion. I am his friend and proud of it and cannot say that about everyone I come into contact with. Let him go!
This is not justice. This is Kangaroo Court system at work. If you were to read the recent memo filed you would understand the travesty occurring in this case. When politics enters injustice prevails. Bruce
Since the consideration of this man's life has been moved to a public forum I would urge the public to seek the other side of the story by viewing the "public record" Memorandum No. 10-1-00157-1 filed at the Pacific County Courthouse. The memorandum states specific and extensive evidence that has been uncovered since Ms. Holland's first version of her "story" was filed. The same story the judge referred to as "exaggerated". This document clearly gives right to remove the word exaggerated and replace with out-right lies. Proven so by extensive medical evidence as well as numerous witnesses and contradictory statements made by Ms. Holland. It's time to shed light on the "other side of the story." There is more than enough to raise extreme reasonable doubt, why are we wasting both Oregon and Washington state resources? I am highly disappointed as I have watched continuously real offenders with sometimes extensive records, who actually hurt people held on as little as $5,000 bail and sentenced to even less time than what both the prosecution and defense has settled for in this matter. Let's all get real here!
If "anonymous" is proud to be Dans friend why is "anonymous" anonymous?
Have you seen the medical records? Or have you seen only what the defense is saying about the medical records? If you were shown that there were extensive injuries to her head and hands would this change you opinion? What about an MRI which shows brain damage, would this change your opinion? Have you seen what witnesses have said? If this goes to trial you may change your mind with the proof that is there. Perhaps prosecution isnt showing their cards just yet... The truth will prevail. Stay tuned.
Ok anonynous. So your relying on documents supplied by the defense. Wow. As a so called "friend" of Keyser your words certainly pull a lot of weight. Not! Let us taxpayers get justice from the DA's office which is the reason they exist. The law hasn't put Keyser behind bars for monthes because he spit his gum at Holland!
Have you heard the 911 tapes or only your friend, the defendants, version?
Obviously, this has polarized a good amount of folks on both sides of the aisle.
As a 3rd party hired to clean up the audio from the original 911 calls, I was brought into this without any sort of agenda or preconceived notion of guilt or innocence.
That being said, after spending hours listening to the contents of those recordings, it would be interesting to see what sort of defense his lawyers could possibly come up with. There were things on those tapes that made my blood run cold. The violence on his part and the terror on hers...
But again... I'm just 3rd party bystander... This is for a jury to decide.
Just wondering:
...how you can defend a man who beats a woman?,
...did you hear the blood curdling screams at the college?
...did you see the bloody head and hands?
...did you see the gobs of hair he pulled out when he pulled her back in the building by only her hair?
...how would you feel if he threatened to kill your son?
...did you know this victim is not the first woman who has taken a restraining order out against Danny boy?
...how the defender denies the charges rather than admits he has a drinking and anger management problem?
...how you all blame the victim?
when witnesses can testify to the above?
I sign as anonymous because there is a sickness in Astoria and Ms.
Hollands is not be the only one who should be afraid.
I saw bad bruises on Ms. Holland 4 different times while she was dating Mr. Keyser. That speaks for itself.
To Anonymous post July 28, 2011 12:51 PM; "People who hurt people are held on $5,000 bail"; doesn't it make you wonder why Keyser is held on $2 million bail? Keyser didn't just 'hurt' this woman...
It's called railroading! So many lies! Dan Keyser is not a dangerous !!! You people are SICK!
Of course Keizer is not dangerous to you.
He only beats women.
The police were on site with the defendant, the accuser, and on the site of the incident within hours of this happening. EMT’s also examined the accuser at this time. Even with all of this law enforcement presence, no charges were filed for nearly a year and a half. In this time the accuser violated her own restraining order to continue to see the accused. She moved less than a block away from all of his immediate family. Finally she brought forth a story carefully prepared over all this time that she was able to convince the prosecutors in Pacific County was 100% true. As actual facts have come about even they can no longer accept what she has provided and are trying to work with the defense to bring a resolution to this. This does not just affect two people. Do those of you who scream for your so called “justice” celebrate children not having a father and losing their home? Do you not accept that the defendant completed drug and alcohol treatment and changed his life? Do you not accept that he made a decision to avoid the accuser and move on with his life in the time before he was arrested? For those who do not accept close to three years of someone’s life lost, you are not seeking justice you are seeking vengeance.
The medical records do not prove she is lying. You're making yourself look like an idiot. I've known Holland for the better part of 38 years and never known her to be a liar. Ever. This guy is dangerous. Would you want him to date YOUR daughter? Sister? Friend? Uh...no. Because he'll probably kill the next one.
I am anonymous because this woman is a dangerous woman and will make anyone who crosses her path a living hell. I don't know why it took the prosecuter so long to see through her lies. 100 times hit her head on the concrete! Who would believe that (she would truly be dead) and how was she able to count? The Medical Examiner stated as much in his review of her medical file. The EMT's on scene reported there were no injuries requiring medical attention. The CT's and MRI's were negative. The kidnapping was such a farce. She was left alone in the car and did not try to escape, Also she stopped and went to the bathroom with him out of sight and did not try to escape. She was texting during the ordeal and did not text for any kind of help? Her stories are not believable and also the stories have changed from the begining to the end 180 degrees according to the prosecuting attorney. It is unfortunate that the reporters jumped the gun and published such mis-information which had not been tried in court.
The reporters hear only the lies that she had told and did not get the real story. Justice will be served!
