YFL has started yet another BORG thread - dispelling misinformation. However, on it, she posted that the DNA is from the perp because it was mixed with the blood - and this indicates that they were deposited at the same time.
I have tried to find information about how scientists extract dried blood from garments but I can only find out how they collect the dried bloodstains for safe storage. However, I am certai that I have seen scientists on tv wetting the dried blood with some solution to extract it. Does anyone know about this?
Anyway, the point I am making is that if I were to spill salt water on some cloth and allow it to dry, and then spill fruitjuice on the same cloth and let it dry... there would be no way of telling which had been spilled first - or even if there was salt IN the fruit juice.
I think the fact that the foreign DNA is degraded when JonBenet's was not, is indicative of them NOT being placed in her underwear at the same time. The fact that they were mixed does NOT necessarily mean they were placed there at the same time.
