It was Darlie's attorney who requested the change of venue. He rolled the dice and came up badly for her. I seem to remember it was her first attorney who did this. Her second or last attorney wanted it changed back but judge said no. Tom Bevel certainly got David Camm's blood spatter wrong; I remember this murder when it occurred, the man had been playing basketball with 11 other men who verified his alibi, a totally messed up case. And Bevel got right so many cases, and helped exonerate wrongly convicted people as well. But how else, if not for cast-off from stabbing her children, would Darlie get blood on the back of her nightshirt? I have read on a FB forum that she got it because she was sleeping on the couch nearby, but she said that her back was against the back of the couch, so that couldn't have happened.
It was the Defense that was the change of venue. I saw the Court Documents

Yes. Her telling her baby boy, Damon, to “hang on”. while she ambles on, on the phone, instead of trying to help him, or at least comfort him.
This is her child for God’s sakes….. She never goes to him.
What else is there to say? I mean, my God… if it’s my baby, I’d at least be right there holding him if theres nothing else I can do. It’s heart wrenching.
While Darlie was on the phone with the 911 Operator, Darlie was Staging the scene, plus Darlie seen that Damon was still alive Darlie went back and Stabbed Damon again

My understanding is that the IP only concerns itself with DNA results. They don't reopen the investigation itself. Darlie has no doubt had more blood tested than anyone. Surely this has to end soon. Justice delayed is justice denied.

The Innocence Project main thing is to Stop a Execution. They Don't care if Darlie is Guilty or Not they care about Stopping an Execution

The IP has Tested Everything that has been Tested before. Darlie's case has been the MOST TESTED CASE in Texas Ever!

And never any foreign (as in anyone not Darlie, Darren, or the boys) DNA found, correct?

PublicAccess - Criminal Courts Here is the Court Order for the IP to Asist the Defense
Thank you! IMO the case is plainly out of control. It makes sense that the IP is focused only on dragging motions out to help Darlie avoid execution as not one new piece of evidence has come to light.

Maybe it’s time to commute her sentence to LWOP. Let her sit in her cell for the rest of her life. Would the IP then continue to waste resources on trying to free her? Her case still isn’t to be found on their website, the only result is a link to that tv show from way back. Just how invested is the IP in getting her released vs saving her from death row?

So no news on the latest testing.... Must not be good news for those who asked for it.
