Court is back in session. Cross examination between Dolan and LeClair continues
LeClair: Card was taken to a company called HIT, not a part of the state of California. It's a private organization. Department was utilizing the company at the time
LeClair: After taking card to HIT, didn't discuss assignment. Directions given to HIT included conducting a DNA test on this piece of evidence. No other requirement
LeClair: Card was checked for fingerprints. In October 2006, two prints found on card. One was not comparable, the other was comparable.
Judge Schwartz addresses jury stipulation regarding two fingerprints on business card. After visual inspection of pictures, experts believe fingerprints were not sufficient for computer search. Therefore, they're non-comparable
LeClair: On 9/28/06, LeClair interviewed Smith at address on 30th Avenue in Cathedral City. About 25 minutes away from Palm Desert Sheriff Station. Father was initially present, excused himself at LeClair's request
LeClair: Interview was about more than an hour at father's home, mother lived across the street. Girlfriend lived in Palm Springs. Never interviewed mother or girlfriend.
LeClair: During interview, LeClair learned Pape and Smith were at ampm. Sent investigator to ampm to find possible surveillance video showing two there. No video was found. No receipt records found. Heard they bought chap stick. No records of purchase found.
