Me too. Will check in as soon as I get back. Praying nonstop. I can only imagine what Chelsea's family is feeling right now. God Bless them.

Do we know if there was anything on the clothing that CAN be tested for DNA?

This is great news! Somewhere, out there, there's a who's squirming a bit now! Good! Your prayers are working!

None of us know, but it is possible to get DNA from clothing.

Therefore, DNA evidence collected from a crime scene can link a suspect to a crime or eliminate one from suspicion in the same way that finger- prints are used. DNA also can identify a example, during a sexual assault, biological evidence such as hair, skin tissue, semen, blood, or saliva can be left on the victim’s body or at the crime scene. In addition, hair and fiber from clothing, car- pet, bedding, or furniture could be transferred to the victim’s body during an assault. This evidence is helpful in proving that there was physical contact between an assailant and a victim.

In addition to the commonly used swabbing and cutting methods, Bode has recently started using the “Scraping” and “Tape Lift” methods, in which the surface of soft items (such as clothing) are either scraped with a blade, or sampled with a small piece of tape, to collect possible cells. Due to the lack of unnecessary substrate generated by these methods (scraping produces a small “pile” of fiber, cells, and debris that can easily be placed in the DNA processing tube), a larger surface area can be sampled. An increase in surface area increases the number of possible cells recovered; therefore, increasing the chances of obtaining a DNA profile.


The scraping/tape lift methods are ideal in situations where the scientist can locate areas on the item which are most likely to contain the perpetrator’s skin cells. If clothing were left at the crime scene by the perpetrator, pressure points on the clothing such as the interior neck of a shirt or the band inside a hat, are excellent candidates for these sampling methods. In addition, in a sexual assault case in which the victim’s clothing had been removed by the perpetrator, areas such as the waistband may contain sufficient cells belonging to the perpetrator to produce a profile.

Not making any connections but recalling the 19 yo male from Flat Rock who was arrested (in January) for lying to police in Chelsea's case:

Glad that LE is still working to find Chelsea. Hoping this new lead brings her home to her loved ones.

Home in time for 12:00 news. Heard reports on WWJ radio while driving hither and yon.

Re: DNA on costume/clothing. Not just Chelsea's - possibly the DNA of another individual.

Quite a coincidence that he is from FLAT rock, and that is where the search has gone. He doesn't look too much like the sketch-man to me, though. I did see two "friends" who had a bit of resemblance, on his FB.

I hope the DNA results don't take too long and gives some valuable evidence.

I can tell you based on the video of the site where the possible new costume evidence was found; looks like a hang out where nefarious activities occur.

Littered with garbage and graffiti, emptied beer cans, etc.

I'd have to guess it's a known hangout by locals...
