Without going back to the affidavits (don't have time right at the minute) I think from memory that one defense expert had said it was not Darlie's print and they were working on eliminating Darin but had not done so yet. However, we all know that someone has to be wrong about the other print- the one on the table. The defense experts ruled out Darlie as the donor of that print (gee, what a suprise) and the state expert said she was the only person who could not be ruled out. So I personally wouldn't be ruling Darlie out from leaving the print on the door based on one defense affidavit.
And one of the main reasons I wouldn't is because it is clear whoever held the door had not just blood on their hands but enough blood that it literally ran/dripped off their hand. If you look at the photos there is a run of blood which has congealed on the part of the door which would rest against the frame when it was closed (which raises further questioning about the timing of the blood being left and the door being closed). Whoever held that door had blood running off their hands. The only person in that house who should have had blood running off their hands was Darlie.
With regards to the blood dripped throughout the room being Darlie- well she has consistently denied having stepped into the room. According to her own testimony she did not drip that blood.
Of course we all know there is no other real explanation than Darlie having dripped there unless you want to believe that the intruder stepped through the garage door and was made miraculously clean.
