It certainly is difficult (maybe impossible) to capture a screenshot from that video that isn't blurry! However if the video is watched with "HD" turned on it is quite apparent that the tattoo does not have a box around it, even if the actual word cannot be read clearly. There are also a few photos of DM on FB that show neither wrist tattoo is framed in a box. Whether a box was added to one or both wrists after is anyone's guess at this point.
It's unfortunate that Molly Hayes did not mention seeing DM's tattoo when she visited him - especially since she pointedly mentioned his sleeves were rolled up to expose his forearms. If she was only a couple of feet away from him, she may have been able to get a good look.

Someone did ask MH about the tattoo on her twitter account, but, as far as I could find, she never answered.

Personally, I can't see a box in any of those photos.

I'm wondering if perhaps the "box" aspect surrounding the tattoo was disinformation released by LE in order to not spook a perp and to lull somebody into a false sense of security.
Or if they pretend it is after the fact to make the evidence match up with the description...
So yathink for some unknown reasons they manufactured everything against DM ... right on down to the tatt, the trailer in the driveway, the body on the farm ... ???
okay
No need to put words in my mouth, sillybilly. I wasn't talking about a trailer or a driveway or a farm, I just pointed out that it is easy to go back afterwards and say it was deliberate misinformation if you are wrong about something. It's like losing a game and then saying "I meant to lose"; it's hard to believe after the fact.
<rsbm>The evidence they collected in the investigation is what really matters not the miniscule event of the tatt tieing him to a test drive with BO.
<rsbm>What it comes down to is that the descriptions will be read in court, DM will show his tattoo, and they will either match up or they won't.
Thank you for the good laugh this morning, Swedie! I am still giggling about this. It makes me remember when my children were young enough to have filthy, dirty bandage lines, or being a child and remembering the dread of pulling one of them off when it had been stuck on there for a good long time.
In seriousness, though, I have never seen a mechanic use an actual bandage, the ones I know all use duct tape. And scientifically speaking, any bandage that had adhered strong enough and long enough to leave a dirt outline wouldn't be able to fall off on it's own, it would need to be ripped off. Also, most people can distinguish between sticky, gooey dirt and a tattoo from the distance that would be required to read a tattoo, I would think.

Read this story in the Hamilton Spectator this morning.
