More and more, I'm thinking this is where the unsourced DNA in this case has come from. BTW, the FBI are looking more and more like the keystone cops in high profile cases these days:

The FBI has long been known as not being the best source when it comes to DNA evidence. |

Well my guess would be that he is saying you are Jameson, which doesn't make sense because Jameson is IDI all the way. I believe she has used the phrase "it ain't over til the fat lady sings" but then again so have I....and many many others. It's a very common phrase. This group thinks Jameson is everybody. |

The new investigative team needs to go back, and find out ANYONE and EVERYONE that may have had contact with these garments from the time Dr. Meyer was conducting the autopsy, until the DNA was found and documented in the lab, and make sure they were ALL swabbed.

I agree Candy. I always thought there was a possibility that the DNA could have belonged to an examiner but I have come to find out that it really would be a long shot. They would have had to have dripped one small speck of saliva into the panties precisely in a spot that comingled with JBR's blood and then the same person would have to use their bare hands to pull the long johns off of her. The same DNA findings were found at different labs without the second lab knowing the results of the first lab if I am understanding this correctly. This was a Christmas holiday break. Is there a chance that standards could have lapsed? Are all lab workers DNA entered and compared against the victims. One would assume so but I have found out that many things we assume to be done were NOT done in this case. |

I agree with that. I think the panty DNA and the long john DNA undoubtedly belong to the same person, though there's a very remote possibility that they don't. But it's so remote, the more obvious has to be assumed and examined first. The BPD was so careless about the chain of custody, I feel sure someone must have folded those clothes, transferred them from one bag to another, etc. and has NOT been swabbed. They ALL need to be, but I wonder if BPD even HAS a record of everyone who could have touched the clothing? Now, if that same foreign DNA were on the garrote, the cord, the MAG light, I'd say, "Yes, there was an intruder." I'm assuming Mary Lacy had the sense to have the MURDER WEAPON tested, but maybe not. Oh, the MAG light was wiped clean of prints, at least, so safe to assume no "touch DNA" there. So, WHY was it wiped? But I still think the panty and long john DNA, though belonging to the same person, is not evidence of a third person INSIDE the Ramsey home. |

I was RDI, too, until I looked at this (and other aspects of the case) more closely. Transfer DOES happen and often, but not in the way it would have had to have happened in the JB case. Exactly right about FFJ. If they had a videotape of an intruder killing JB, they would not believe it. I once had some respect for KK, too, but no longer. |

Biz, are they positive it's saliva in the panties? I can see innocent transfer taking place if it were skin cells in the panties, but not if it was saliva. So, while I seem to be contradicting myself in the above two posts, I'm just unsure. "Touch" DNA could have been innocently transferred, saliva could not have been, and commingled with JB's blood? No. |

Geeze, maybe I can be a DNA expert, because I know the answer to this! CSILIAR! |
