Forensic biologist sent swabs of blood taken from ground and tree near Trey's body as well as a bat in Gouker's garage for DNA testing.

I haven't yet watched AC's testimony. Is it known whether she believes JY committed the murder?

You should watch her testimony -- her demeanor and defensiveness is very interesting IMO. It's impossible to tell what she thinks - in some ways it seems like she's still covering for Gouker and at times it seems like she's being evasive or even deceptive about Young but other times she seems to gratuitously throw both of them under the bus.

Mom is hiding something IMO

YES! It does seem like sometimes she is sticking up for Gouker. So bizarre. All of it.

I am wondering if the night run for cigarettes was to cover the crime, as was taking out light bulbs on outside lights. Josh Y, could have very well been following instructions for dear old dad. And why did so many of Josh Y's friends come out and say he had been talking about killing his brother?

Wow, Josh Y actually TOLD friends he was gonna kill his brother? Wont all those kids be called to testify? That would be the way to go,no?

I am listening to all of it now....Amanda thinks JG killed her son or was involved.

Check out day 2 part 3 about 28 minutes.

Also, JG took her down to the area were her son was found dead 1-2 days before murder, and told her the area was dangerous, also JY was practicing getting to Amanda's house without triggering motion detector lights...this was preplanned murder. IMO. Father and son...imo so far.

That's what cop said in interview....it has yet to come out in court as evidence. Waiting for it.

I don't know but I just don't always believe this kind of testimony. I mean people can say anything and can have many motives.. OMO

Jury question: did you receive a pair of sweatpants?
No
Jury really focused on those sweatpants.

Blood found on Trey's fingernail was his.
DNA on the bat matched Trey's mother. Amanda McFarland.

I feel it just means she had touched the bat many times. in my opinion.
