We are now back from break, and Dr. McCollum says that in this case, they received 90 pieces of evidence. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

McCollum said the FBI received about 90 samples of evidence, including three reference samples from Hoehn, Brooke, and Savanna. McCollum said 28 of the sample were tested based on "best or most investigative value." #HoehnTrial

We're going through the nitty-gritty of how DNA works. Dr. McCollum says if the person who matches to the DNA, that means they may be the 'contributor' to the DNA. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Q: Can you make a conclusive determination from DNA?
FBI: When DNA matches, it's never enough for me to tell you it's a match.. There's two explanations: The 1st is that the match is the true contributors. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Angeline McCall on Twitter
Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 7m7 minutes ago
FBI: The 2nd is that the person may match purely on genetic chance. Dr. McCollum says that he must provide additional weight to make sure that the DNA is conclusive. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

The FBI is now going through the findings of the DNA evidence in this specific case... including vaginal, anal, oral swabs, plus fingernail clippings. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

The entire knots and ends of ropes found were tested. These ropes were mentioned by the State as being used to 'subdue' Savanna.
FBI: "Ms. Cruz is excluded from the sample" from the ropes. Savanna Greywinds and William Hoehn's were 'inconclusive.' #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

McCollum swabbed rope that was gathered in the case by the FBI. Crews’ DNA was excluded from the sample, Hoehn and Savanna's DNA was inconclusive. #HoehnTrial

Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 38s39 seconds ago
This means that Brooke Crews' DNA was not found on the ropes that the State believes were used around Savanna's neck to kill her (as stated in their opening arguments). #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Angeline McCall on Twitter
Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 1m1 minute ago
These ropes are described as 'thin, tan cords.' One was tied and one was still in a knot. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

McCollum said two separate ropes found Crews and Hoehn's apartment, one knotted and the other open, were tested for DNA. Both matched with a high statistical probability to Hoehn and Brooke. The testing was able to exclude Savanna's DNA. #HoehnTrial

The FBI is going over a 'ligature' ie a cord that was found on Savanna's neck. There was no other DNA found on this cord other than Savanna Greywind's. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 13m13 minutes ago
Dr. Kieley examined Haisley Jo on August 24th. She was about 4 pounds at the time of examination. Doctors determined at that time, she was less than 7 days old. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Kieley said the examination determined Haisley Jo, Savanna's daughter, was preterm and under seven days old. But otherwise a healthy appearing baby. #HoehnTrial

Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 12m12 minutes ago
Dr. Kieley says Haisley Jo's umbilical cord did not look like a normal umbilical stump that would be found in a hospital birth. It was much shorter than where doctors would typically cut it. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Dr. Kieley says that a c-section is typically 'quite a scene' when done in a hospital. There are typically at least 12 people in the room. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Angeline McCall on Twitter
Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 7m7 minutes ago
The State asks how difficult it would be for Dr. Kylie to perform an out-of-hospital c-section. He says 'it would be impossible.' DoC: "I think it would be a grave procedure to perform, even if you were only caring for the well-being of the child" #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Angeline McCall‏ @amccallWDAY 5m5 minutes ago
Dr. Kieley says doing a c-section without anesthesia would be 'horrifying.' #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Kieley said "it would be horrifying" to perform a C-section without any anesthesia for the mother. #HoehnTrial

State: If the mother was dead, would the baby continue to live in utero?
Dr. Kieley: I would imagine that once the baby stops breathing... As soon as the maternal blood flow stops providing blood flow to the placenta, there is not much time. #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Defense is now cross-examining Dr. Kieley. Dan Borgen asks Dr. Kieley, how this is remarkable if this is the only fetal abduction he has seen? #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

I wonder if the 14th is circled because it was the day BC asked Savanna to smoke marijuana and attempted this heinous act for the first time.

Detective Voigtschild photographed Savanna's leg, where there was an identifying tattoo. They did not show pictures entirely of her body outside of the body, as they only needed to find the tattoo to identify the body as Savanna's.' #HoehnTrial #SavannaGreywind

Helgeson, who worked at a dollar store Hoehn and Crews frequented, recalls that a day after Hoehn told her Crews was pregnant, she congratulated Crews who snapped back saying Hoehn wasn't supposed to tell anyone about her pregnancy. This happened in July 2017. #HoehnTrial

(Wait are we just hearing now about the ligatures or did I forget this? I thought she died from blood loss? Going back to reread)

ETA: I’m seeing the ropes were used to “subdue” her.

Just no words.)
