DNA Timeline

1996: DNA is not mentioned.

1997-2003: DNA sample is discovered but is referred to as degraded and unusable.

December 2003: DNA from a spot of blood in JBR's panties was entered into FBI national database (CODIS) .

July 2008: New technology was used to analyze the scant DNA left behind when someone grasped JonBenet's long johns. Prosecutors said that evidence matched the DNA earlier found in JonBenet's underwear.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Did the probability that an intruder killed JBR go way up in July 2008? Did it go up somewhat? Did it go down? Or, did it simply stay the same?
 
One thing I would like to know: Was the unidentified DNA the only DNA found during this testing? Shouldn't they have found Patsy's DNA since she stated she put the long johns on JB? I voted my probability went up somewhat because it does make you stop and pause when unidentified DNA comes in to the picture. This got me studying the case again if nothing else. I think RDI, I just wish it could be IDI so the face of her killer wasn't someone she loved and trusted.

I've mentioned this before, too. Of course they should have found Patsy's DNA there- Patsy admitted putting the longjohns on JB that night.
That unknown DNA could have come from any male at the party that night, including children. All that "unknown" male would have to do is shake hands with Patsy, who admitted she put the longjohns on JB. Or that "unknown" male could have been at the party and touched a doorknob, toilet handle, anything.

Unless she was wearing gloves at the time she was in contact with the long johns, her DNA profile would be found.

Why is PR's DNA significant? Was it PR's DNA in the blood spot on the underwear?
 
Unless she was wearing gloves at the time she was in contact with the long johns, her DNA profile would be found.

A more accurate description is this: Unless she was wearing clean gloves at the time she was in contact...

A person wearing gloves for hours, simply for the purpose of not leaving fingerprints, would tend to start spreading their own DNA around.

Although I still don't know why PR DNA is signficant.

She would not leave her DNA behind while wearing gloves, unless she made contact with her own skin and then touched other items.
PR's DNA should have been found because she would have have pulled JBR's long johns on as she put her to bed.
Razor scraping for skin cells should find her profile from that contact. No mention of her profile was ever made.
 
Theoretically it went up somewhat.
But it didn't seem to change anything,except allowing a stoopid DA to accomplish her mission which we all know was to kiss the R's #$% one more time and this time GOOD.

We all know? No WE don't. Got proof that the DA was on any kind of mission?

She was wrong in exonerating them solely based on that DNA which could be NOT related to the crime or the killer and you know it.
It's like exonerating them just because JMK "confessed".It's not enough,not in this case.
 
Why didn't she exonerate everybody on the suspect list?Why didn't she send an apology letter to C.Wolf,Santa or F.White?
They still are ALL on the suspect list as far as I am concerned.Eliminating them from it because their DNA doesn't match is WRONG.Maybe it's one of them and they had an accomplice and they get away just because we rely too much on DNA.She didn't drop the charges against JMK because his DNA didn't match,it happened because it was proven he wasn't even around.Do you think she would have let him go if he could have been placed in Boulder (even without a dna match?) I think NOT.
 
Patsy's DNA may not have been in the blood spot, but it SHOUD have been on those longjohns. She admitted putting them on JB, and if she put them on a LIVE JB, she shouldn't have been wearing gloves.

No way! If they had had anything else, DNA match or not, they would have still tried to hang it on him. I'm convinced of it.

There was already a valid argument to exhonerate the R's, based on the DNA in the blood spot. This DNA provided bona-fide evidence of another person at the crime scene. It could be claimed that this person did it.

The subsequent find of additional DNA at the crime scene from the same person corroborated the claim.

Its like having two eye-witnesses with consistent testimony.

Besides, this DNA being found on JBR's underpants and longjohns rather than her shoulders or bottom of her feet tells one and only one story.

I think they have high confidence now that the DNA owner is the intruder.

Maybe at some point they decided to go into some sort of damage control to avoid litigation, once they had knowledge an intruder did it.

How do you know there was an Intruder and how is it you know that the DNA owner is the Intruder?

You asked if we had any proof that the DA was on a mission on the Rs' behalf. That's as good a jumping-off point as I can find!
