#UPDATE: Updates from day 9 in the
#Delphi double murders trial. I can’t fit everything into this tweet.
For more info, click the link I share in the comments.
- The jury heard from Stacy Bozinovski. She tested the DNA found at the scene where Abby and Libby died.
- She walked the jury through the many DNA swabs and testified to finding none that linked Richard Allen to the scene.
- She also said there was no DNA that led her to believe the girls had been sexually assaulted.
- Testing done less than two weeks ago shows the hair found wrapped around Abby Williams’ finger belonged to Kelsi German Siebert, that’s Libby’s sister.
- 72 pieces of hair was sent to the FBI for testing. They report that three of them don’t match Abby and Libby. No samples from Richard Allen have been taken for testing.
- She tested the branches found on or near the girls’ bodies. Two of the samples were a match to Libby.
- Boznovski told the jury the black hoodie Abby was wearing that day was tested for male DNA. It was positive, but belonged to a male lab employee.
- She told the jury the cartridge found in between the two girls at the murder scene could not be tested because there was not enough DNA on it.
- She also tested the items found at Richard Allen’s home in 2022. None of it pointed to Abby and Libby.
- The jury also heard from blood spatter specialist, Maj. Pat Cicero, who was called to work on the case this past February – seven years after the girls died.
- He believes Libby was killed in one area of the crime scene and then dragged to a different spot. The direction of the blood is his evidence for that. He believes Abby died where she was found.
- Much of the family cried as they heard the girls’ blood was mixed with tears.
