I've seen the point that Burke's clothing wasn't collected or tested floating around for years but does anyone have a source? I'm honestly asking, not trying to be difficult.

He reviewed available evidence while working briefly for the Boulder DA in 2005. He self-published his...

In addition to that "he wasn't getting it from Patsy": His fibers were found located in his daughter's labia and underpants crotch. A former maid described being creeped out by him keeping a photo collage of his deceased 22 yr old in his bathtub including pics of her in her cheerleading...
