I don't know how the shirt was retrieved. Did he recognize it and call LE and wait for them to arrive? I didn't follow the case very closely. In any event, it's not a problem, as LE probably would have requested a buccal swab from the finder (maybe his roommate:thinkingso it could be separated from any mixture. Touch DNA (skin cells) aren't deposited every single time we touch something. IMO

It was a mid-afternoon while walking home from class last fall he thinks it was November that UVA student Blaine Eichner saw something black in the bushes in front of his apartment building. There on the 15th Street side, on a bush, was a black Pantera t-shirt.
"I didn't know what to think," says Eichner, who like most Charlottesvillians was well aware of the missing Metallica fan. Eichner says he and his roommate knew better than to touch possible evidence, so they reported the finding to Charlottesville police, who responded to the call with "two or three cop cars."
