Where did you see it was tested with Luminol? I have only seen in the PCA and SW that it was a latent print; never seen it confirmed or implied that it was bloody.
Most of the pictures - which are not in "sensational" - cost $500 and the videos are $3000-5000. All of the videos have been "public", but for many media outlets - it's cheaper to buy video and photos that someone else took than to fly to Idaho and shoot your own.A couple of pics that give a good perspective of 1122's location

I saw that!
If you read the full statement it also implies they know more than they will say, right now at least. I fully expect there is more to the story there.
I didn't see any evidence markers outside on the porch or in the front driveway. I did not see the dog alert in the brief video published and I think if the cameras saw an alert, it would have been widely reported. JMO I don't think the press could see what was happening behind and to the left of the house though, so maybe they had some blood trail back that way? Also thinking he must have wiped the knife down. In the beginning, I thought he entered through the window, but that can't be true now because DM was in that room. If he walked out the sliding door with blood on the tread of a shoe, there should be something on that concrete IMO. Maybe he had booties on that he removed before exiting or if no booties, slipped his shoes off? Then how did he carry the booties/shoes. Still perplexed here so waiting for the prelim hearing evidence. ALL JMO
No they used Amido black to visualize bloodstain pattern. More sensitive than luminol. Pg 5 PCA*snipped for focus*
A latent print does not mean it was a bloody print. A latent print means it was one not seen by the naked eye.
Additionally, I don't recall seeing (though I may have missed it) that they tested it with Luminol and is showing any traces of blood.

Here is link to the story I saw
Why did he wait until he got to his family home to clean the vehicle? Crazy.Kohberger, who was pursuing a PhD in criminal justice at Washington State University at the time of the killings, "cleaned his car, inside and outside, not missing an inch," according to the law enforcement source.
Idaho murders suspect Bryan Kohberger cleaned car, was seen wearing surgical gloves, source says
In one instance prior to Kohberger's arrest, authorities observed him leaving his family home around 4 a.m. and putting trash bags in the neighbors' garbage bins, according to the source.abc7chicago.com
My guess is he cleaned it out from the night of the murders way before and this cleaning was done cuz of the cross-country trip he & his dad took. JMO
Yes, it is what is used to test paternity.
Woah. I just had a thought.
Correct. Technically Amido Black isn't used to detect the possible presence of blood at all. It is used as a protein stain to visualze prints. According to the PCA, the Amido Black was used after an unidentified presumptive test. One such presumptive test is Luminol, but there are a few others (Kastle-Meyer, LMG, Fluorescein).
I had to go back to the photo thread to check the layout again. The house layout is confusing. The only way out in that direction is the sliding door, the stairs to the first level are in the living room.
Amido black does detect protein, the protein in blood to enhance a pattern. It is better for photographing.
No, she did not testify. AFAIK anything goes in opening/closing statements. Juries are instructed not to consider those in deciding the case.
