ITA Darnudes, it's really unfair and unbalanced.

 

[MCDRAW]

LOL Not even going to try. I'll look for the old posts, but bottom line, I think was that they had Cobbins on her camisole, and LD on her jeans, camisole, and panties.

VC's DNA was on the bindings.

I thought I just heard her say they had Cobbins on the camisole, sweater, and jeans. And LD was on the jeans too. So far I haven't heard the third guy's (which I can't think of his name right now) dna on anything. Did I miss it? For VC to say Cobbins only went in that room twice for a few minutes there suree is alot of his DNA. To me that reinforces that VC is a liar. Why would you cover for someone that held you hostage and you were terrified of?

 

[darnudes]

If VC was a major contributor on the knot of the white binding, wouldn't that suggest that she tied the knot on that binding?

Wouldn't it be great if her DNA was found IN a knot thereby possibly proving Coleman did tie her up. I have no doubt she was an active participant in all this, I wish the SAO could prove what she actually did. Shame that none of the other murderers rolled on her or did they?

 

[MCDRAW]

I'm thinking the defense could explain VC's DNA on the floral sheets...saying her and Cobbins slept on them. But it will be harder to explain VC's DNA on the knotted part of bindings.

I may have misunderstood but I thought she said she found VC 's DNA on the knotted part.

I hope the jurors are more concerned with what she didn't do... as in help.

Because almost all of her dna present can be explained away by her staying there or coming from Cobbins. So much more important to me to make sure it is shown she WAS there and DID have opportunity to leave or help and was not under duress.

I didn't catch all of that testimony so I'm not sure. Sorry, I should be paying better attention. Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[SuziQ]

Defense cross with atty Greene.

I agree, I'm just sure she was more involved than we know.

 

[SuziQ]

Hopefully this cross isn't painfull or lengthy. This girl is good about merely letting science speak for itself. I detect no bias on her part.

No surprise that defense comes out of gate w/ "if I sleep on something fabric u would expect 2 find skin cells"

 

[MCDRAW]

I missed the clothing presentation, my kids came home from school.

 

[SuziQ]

Basically Greene is having Serologist repeat everything she has said so far....ZZZzzzzzzzz..........

[darnudes]
