Still Missing CT - Jennifer Dulos, 50, New Canaan, 24 May 2019 *ARRESTS* #61

[Pitsleuth]

So listening through this morning (thank you for the link!) seems there is quite a bit of evidence sadly of DNA and/or blood profile of JF on a plethora of items and objects. Thus, apparently to show she is a victim of the crime. At the same time, I think I have so far only heard one sample which also matched to MT from one of the black plastic trash bags? Is it also the case this evidence is being assessed with the jury being present? MOO

After listening to most of this morning, that is what my conclusion is as well. Yes jury is present.

 

[Megnut]

Back to a previous exhibit

The folded unused garbage bag

Stain
100 billion x source toothbrush
Knowns eliminated

 

[afitzy]

Yellow green sponge

No DNA profiles obtained
Not enough DNA detected

Human hair
No nuclear DNA
Full mitochondrial profile
PG or a member of his lineage can not be excluded

[Wow]

Do wonder if this bag might have been in Red Tacoma truck so perhaps that is where hair came from? Seat? Moo

 

[Megnut]

Trash bag

Stain one. No profile developed

stain two 100 billion x toothbrush source
Knowns eliminated

Stain three 880,000x source toothbrush
FD MT eliminated
Other knowns eliminated

One report came back to a staff member.

Stain four
6.5 billion x source toothbrush
Knowns eliminated

Swabbing opening exterior
100 billion x source toothbrush
Knowns eliminated

Stain interior
No profile developed

Stain interior
1.9 billion x source toothbrush
Knowns eliminated

 

[afitzy]

This DNA results presentation also seems to be making a very very strong case for a well planned strategy to possibly wear layers of gloves and protective gear imo.
Moo

 

[Megnut]

Metal scraper

Swabbing of blade
100 billon x source toothbrush

Other knowns eliminated

Swabbing of handle

Seat back stain

Cutting, results
100 billion x source toothbrush

[I am not Sherlock H.]

Ps…. Megnut is faster than a speeding bullet! …… (with attributes and props to Jerry Siegel, George Reeves, and Superman)! MOO

 

[Megnut]

License plates, screws from Tacoma

No DNA profiles generated from screws.

 

[Megnut]

Bloodlike stains from door panel

-No DNA profiles generated

-No DNA profiles derected

State refers back to Tacoma license plates

-2 items tested, no DNA profiles developed

[I wish I was at the dentist today.]

Rear plate
--FD, source toothbrush, MT eliminated, all knowns eliminated
-- screws
Limited data, source toothbrush, inconclusive.
FD and MT eliminated

[Lost my feed.]

 

[Megnut]

Door panel

[I missed a couple results.]

Carpet panel from door
Three contributors
Source toothbrush eliminated
FD and MT eliminated
4 children eliminated
1 child inconclusive
TD and LA eliminated

Assorted areas from door, no DNA profile developed

State asks witness if she redirect a work truck to contain DNA

JS with a mouthful of food objects, sustained

Human hair
Nuclear and mitochondrial testing, no profike developed

Swabbing from fabric area, no profile generated

 

[nodamselindistress]

Dreading this afternoon when JS crosses this witness.

 

[Megnut]

Carpet cut from right floor, Tacoma

Swabbing stain on topside, no DNA profile developed

2nd stain on top
3 contributors, 1 male
Source toothbrush eliminated
FD and MT eliminated
A statistical match to PG [I missed the number]
Other knows are eliminated

State asks witness to assume the Tacoma was detailed, how would that impact DNA....

 

[Aquarian]

Oh no!

 

[BUF]

Dreading this afternoon when JS crosses this witness.

Uh oh….JS is up

 

[Megnut]

FD's Suburban

Stain left side weathertek liner

Results
3 contributors, 1 male
Source toothbrush eliminated
41 million x FD
MT eliminated
Inconclusive for children
LA and PG eliminated

 

[Megnut]

JS: you went through a lot of stuff and I'm not going to ask you about any of it.

 

[afitzy]

Just seems so profoundly disorganized but I wish judge could admonish for “testimony cross”.
Moo

 

[Megnut]

JS asking about the two garbage bags that had been separated.
Witness never saw the parent items.
Asking about the exterior edge, opening
Witness does not have "exterior" in her notes

Nanograms and picograms

JS is saying target amount (500 picograms) to develop a full DNA profile....
Witness: yes but we can develop a profile from a lot less

JS pulls up an application worksheet. JS is focused on the amount of sample tested, all below 500.

Debating with the witness over trillionths.

Deconvolution report computes likelihood ratio.

Determines the number of sources.

Sample with .33 was inconclusive for MT. Meaning they make no opinion about it.

After 2019, they switched vendors from Fusion to Global.

Two fewer loci --

Calls up the deconvolution report.

Witness schools JS on which sample is MT's.

JS is comparing the 2019 and the 2023 report. MT still a third contributor at 5%. Cannot be eliminated in 2019. And consistent with in 2023.

 

[BUF]

The jury may be tiring of all of this technical testimony over the past three days. Wish we had someone reporting jury reactions.

Hopefully the next witness will be be something different and a bit more enlightening to MT’s involvement.
