Now that I think about it, was an interpreter present when LE requested and obtained the buccal DNA swab from Ortiz? If not this could possibly complicate things. Just my opinion.....

OH NO!!!! Just read this article from CBS Boston!
"Ryan said the defense has retained their own DNA expert to go over the evidence that led to Colon-Ortizs arrest.
One of the things were going to look at very carefully is whether he knowingly, voluntarily understood what he was being asked to do, and whether or not he knowingly and voluntarily gave up a sample of his saliva, Ryan said."

The victim suffered a fractured nose during the attack and crushing injuries to the structures surrounding her throat, State Police wrote in a report filed in court.
Prosecutors said they have asked the Department of Homeland Security to check into Colon-Ortizs background to determine the actual identity of this defendant who had a Puerto Rico drivers license issued to him in 2014.

He's 31-32 & he obtained a PR license issued in 2014? At age 28-29. Hmmm

Supporters of Colon-Ortiz declined comment.
Colon-Ortiz, he said, “is obviously very shaken. He doesn’t speak any English. “
Travers said Colon-Ortiz spoke voluntarily with state police detectives and claimed “he did not know Vanessa and would have no*occasion to have physical contact with Vanessa."
How did no one at FedEx suspect this man?
let me assure you, yes they do in similar cases.
There is nothing unusual about this case. It's just another heinous crime, which happens every day.

[FONT="]From the article:
"Ribot, a former postal worker at the Princeton post office, recognized him immediately. Colon-Ortiz, who authorities say killed 27-year-old Vanessa Marcotte as she was out for a run in Princeton last August, worked for FedEx delivering packages to the Princeton post office. [/FONT]
[FONT="]Ribot dealt with him regularly and "it was an uncomfortable interaction," she said.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Ribot said Colon-Ortiz would usually be on a Bluetooth headset or with a partner and talking in Spanish and that he'd make sexual comments, sometimes about Ribot or the postmaster. [/FONT]
[FONT="]"I guess he figured no one understood Spanish," Ribot said.[/FONT]
[FONT="]She did. It's her first language. [/FONT]
[FONT="]"He made some comments about how me and the postmaster looked, sexual comments," Ribot said."
He may not have a criminal record, but it's also not like his deviant sexual behavior came out of nowhere. I suppose it never does.

Like she said and the case in Wesboro shows...this guy has a partner.
