There are little details about evidence in this case that I would like to have clarified becasue they would make ALL the difference to the interpretation of the evidence.
e.g.
Do the panty & fingernail DNA match?
There was foreign DNA nuder JBR's fingernails and in her panties. This DNA was degraded (yes - degraded, it was cracked and incomplete) and we know from screen captures on Tracey Doc I that there were only 2/3 markers from the fingernails. We also know from press releases that the panty DNA had 9 complete markers and a weaker tenth marker which enabled it to be run through CODIS. The full complement of markers for entry onto CODIS is 13.
RST claim the fingernail and panty DNA are a match. Lou Smit ONCE made that claim on TV but has never repeated it publicly. However, he also made other claims which turned out to be wrong - i.e. that a blue line between the marks on JBR were made by a blue arc of electricity.
The only official statement made by investigators about the panty DNA is that it may be the killer's but that it may NOT be the killer's. That it is very miniscule - like from a cough or a sneeze and may be from a worker at the factory which made the panties.
If the markers from the fingernail DNA match markers from the panty DNA, this would be ludicrous.
My query is - can they tell for sure whether markers match or is the fingernauil DNA too degraded to ever be conclusively labelled a match?
If the two DNAs match, it is strong IDI evidence - so why not shout it from the rooftops?
Is there a melted patch on the duct tape?
RST claim a stungun was used on JBR. Alas, only one "pair" of marks is on her body. The leading expert on stunguns says no stungun was used and unfortunately, one pair does not a pattern maketh!
The RST argue that on her face, the second stungun prod landed on the duct tape. I think the evidence contradicts this theory. For starters, the duct tape *may* act as insulation and stop the stungun from working. However, the evidence suggests that she was already dead or unconscious when the tape was applied because there is a perfect lip print on the tape. Why stungun a dead or unconscious child? Surely if she was taped and then stunned, her lips would move with the convulsion?
jameson argues that there is a teensy little white patch on her skin and that this patch is gum from the underside of the tape - caused by the stungun melting the tape. This would be compelling evidence if it were a fact. So why are Lou Smit and the Ramseys not screaming it from the rooftops as evidence of a stungun? Why is it only jameson posting it on her forum as alleged "insider" knowledge.
I cannot understand why jameson always hints at "insider" knowledge of evidence which clears the Ramseys. if it clears them - why not shout it from the rooftops?
