Another bag had prints from Davidson.

That was news to me... :thumb: Trant said, in opening, that they only had one on outermost bag.

 

[Muffet]

Lots of Davidson prints on trashbag #4

Showing the three circles cut from bag 4 - one is on back side, but you can see light shining through:

State showing Davidson's palm print on trash bag in spot consistent w/ lifting heavy object like, say, a body #cntrial4 minutes ago

The two intermost bags had no prints....IMO because of decomp.

 

[SuziQ]

Everyone has different prints....nothing like dna. Fingerprints will match or not match.

Fingerprint analysis more often excludes peeps as suspects than nails then, says Shade #cntrial2 minutes ago

Fabric is not a good candidate from prints.

Defense cross.

Trant passed on the goves and handling evidence without them?

Noting that don't know when prints placed or removed from box. Davidson prints found on only one garbage bag box.

On cross, Eldridge points out Schade can't say how long Davidson's prints on trash bags #cntrial1 minute ago

Schade - could not lift identifiable prints from white grocery bag tied around Channon's face #cntrial5 minutes ago

 

[Muffet]

Trant: You don't know when the prints were placed on bags...

Yeah, because I always pull my bags out and play with them before I them.

The 4th and 5th - outer - bags had his prints - they would have most likely been the last ones pulled from the roll.
