I do not have GDF's DNA info, so I do not know where it is stored. From memory, I believe UNT had it. I know Lesha called the ME, but from my experience with Helen Green being compared to FLEK as well as Tammy Jo Alexander being compared to Cali; we had the rule in/out with the processed. Tammy's DNA also showed complete when it was done, the ME had the results & wanted one more test done for 100% accuracy because Pam & Tammy have different fathers. That test took one week.
My opinion is the ME already knows the answer & he is going to make the call on the 20th anniversary June 26th.
So we will see in a few days.
BTW, anyone wondering what's taking so long, UNT has a backup. What used to take 2 months now takes 5 & 6 months for processing.

Quoted from a post on the Grateful Doe Facebook page
"Alright guys, this is the latest update from the Medical Examiner. The tests complete only means the dna is now in Namus so the dna has not yet been tested against Grateful Doe. This next test can take anywhere from a couple weeks to a month. I know it really sucks that we have been waiting this long but we now know it can't be too much longer. They have also taken Jason Callahan's sister's dna to also test so they now have dna from both parents. Everyone please keep their family in your thoughts as this is much harder on them. -LESHA"
In the comments, people were asking why it's taking so long when the escaped prisoners' DNA took 48 hours. His half sister, SC, explained:
***spelling and grammar is true to quote
"the dna is also in texas, hes from s.c.- and it happened in virginia; so theirs a lot of departments (police, medical examiners etc) who are working together; that coupled with the fact it was 20 yrs ago & the number of other numerous cold cases, makes this take forever; Also, only having dna from his mother may make it harder to test (its only half of his dna); i hope when i call my county's medical examiners office again tomorrow they can tell me where to submit my dna. I will then take the 2 second test and hope that since we shared the same father, that it will give the other half to conclusively prove (or disprove) that jason is the grateful doe."
