RSBBMNo matter how many humans touched the knife, one and only one profile was found on the place that must be touched to activate the taking out of the knife (and putting it back in - but the fact that no knife has been found will leave the jury with a chilling picture of BK taking the knife out of the sheath in the room where two young women were murdered). The fact that the sheath was in/on the bed tells a story too - and again, only one person's DNA is on the use point.
My own personal opinion is that they would find considerably more BK DNA on the sheath if they did the consumptive testing, as DNA truly does persist. If in fact he used a bleach solution on it, they'd also find evidence of that. I bet he didn't - he didn't want to ruin his knife sheath. But that would be incriminating as well. More likely he used something like a wipe (maybe a Clorox wipe - which btw, contains no bleach even though of course it sounds as if it does). It still isn't designed to be used on leather, though.
All just my own conjecture.
If BK was wearing latex gloves and tried to open the snap, could the metal snap tear the latex?
JMO BK touched the snap (use point) at another time, previous to the murders. Again JMO but I don't believe BK touched the sheath (snap) with bare skin for the first time in KG & MMs' room on the night of the murders. JMO but hard to believe BK was not wearing gloves that night.
Also the discussion of BK wiping down the sheath... When do others think BK did this, if at all? Anytime I try to "replay" the possible sequence of events, I cannot make sense of it. Is this what they mean by "Organized/Disorganized"?? Some aspects appear to have been memorized and rehearsed whereas other aspects make it look like an entirely different person
