If EDTA is not found it could mean 1 of 2 things, 1) There was no EDTA in the blood sampled, or 2) It was just not found. Not finding something doesn't mean it didnt exist. IMO, it cannot be proven that there wasn't EDTA. It can only be proven there was.
I haven't looked it up. But I've always thought there's no way BD could have read that book, he read at grade 4 level when he was 16. I think I saw someone say there are pictures in the book, but I don't know how true that is.
If there aren't any pics in the book, he may have seen the movie but that's not what he said.
Isn't that a good thing? Also, a special prosecutor means it won't be someone associated with Manitowoc County.
Kratz was a "special prosecutor" too.... So uggh lol
I think you are right jaddie....isn't he one of the two co-counsels brought on when SA hired Strang and Buting?
Since watching this documentary, I feel like I have "woken up" in a nightmare world. I have become absolutely so obsessed with these cases that in my research, I keep coming across soooo many similar cases that show that police and the justice system does not seem to be on the side of TRUTH anymore, it is breaking my heart, spirit, and is seriously putting a kink in my faith in humanity.
For those who believe that a conspiracy in the SA and BD cases is a ridiculous claim, I am including a couple more "similar" cases to show that even stranger stuff then what has been theorized here is known to happen.
In an Oklahoma small town, two people end up disappearing in strange circumstances while in the company of a County Sheriff's nephew. They were never seen again, and their remains were never found. The same said sheriff is being investigated by the FBI in relation to a meth drug ring his family was involved in.

In another story, a man convicted in 1980 for the murder of a woman is exonerated after it is shown that the investigator and the prosecution went to great lengths to convict the man. They knowingly and maliciously falsified evidence in order to ensure the conviction was upheld.

The world is a much scarier place for me now, but I do believe, in my heart, that this documentary was absolutely what was needed to "wake" America up to the fact that something HAS to be done. Our country seems to be run (on a much larger scale then I ever dreamed possible) much like the code of the law from the Wild West days, just with better technology. Everyone sees the daily newspapers that have all these kinds of things in them everyday, but I think that too many people have just become too desensitized to the subject BECAUSE we read about it every day. It took a documentary to actually SHOVE IT IN OUR FACES, for us to realize....THIS HAS TO STOP! JMHO. :stop:
**I am still discouraged that this is going to be too much of an uphill battle (to change the the actual system that it needs to be done to) for us, as a country, to set things back to being right.![]()

Good news: Kratz won't be prosecuting Avery again.
Special Prosecutor just means: prosecutor not affiliated with or on staff of prosecuting jurisdiction.
So it still won't be a Manitowoc County employee who is in that role.
Calimet County isn't trusted, Manitowoc County isn't trusted, WI-DOJ isn't trusted, FBI isn't trusted, WI State Crime Lab isn't trusted. I wonder which next WI jurisdiction or agency will get thrown under the proverbial bus for daring to assist in this or any future Avery-related case.
Perhaps the movie?
I know it doesn't jive with his statement, but what does?
duhhhh I didn't realize it was an Alex Cross book... I have it sitting on my Kobo and I haven't read it... I might have to make hubby read it on the weekend LOL Not really my kinda book, but I can tell him it's for research and he has too haha![]()
The author is James Patterson, not Alex Cross.
eta: Alex Cross is a character, sorry Missy, I just googled.
I have an OT question....
I am getting a ton of emails from websleuths.... from threads I'm subscribed too... but I did go and unsubscribe last week to all threads.... any suggestions? opened my email after not opening it for a few days and ugggh hundreds LOL
He was the co-counsel in the Avery case and the person who brought in the FBI EDTA expert (link).
Norman Gahn, an assistant Milwaukee County district attorney and national DNA expert who is a special prosecutor in the case, told Manitowoc County Circuit Judge Patrick Willis Wednesday that he thinks he found a lab that can test the blood and determine it was not planted.
I haven't looked it up. But I've always thought there's no way BD could have read that book, he read at grade 4 level when he was 16. I think I saw someone say there are pictures in the book, but I don't know how true that is.
If there aren't any pics in the book, he may have seen the movie but that's not what he said.
JUST posted the " Kratz " response, when I saw this!!
SIGH..
I wish someone could have been pulled from a neighboring STATE, at least, to try this case.
I really disagree with this notion that he couldn't have read that book..."
