Of course not. Nothing about the scene was standard.
We took six blood samples, yes. How were you able to sort of collect the blood samples? Well, the blood samples, because they were frozen, we debated on how to collect it. We didn't think swabbing was going to be easy to do if it was frozen. So we decided on finding some type of temporary plastic evidence container. We were able to find large cups, and we took six samples.
We bagged the six samples, and Sergeant Lank transported them back to Canton Police Headquarters.
Chief Berkowitz was at headquarters, and we had a meeting in the detective sergeant's office.
Sergeant Link placed them into evidence.
They were turned over on February 1st to the Massachusetts State Police Crime Lab.
Correct.
We asked him if he had any plastic containers, any type of plastic container that we could utilize.
We wouldn't have temporary plastic containers, what we were looking for. We were looking to take samples of snow. I know for a fact we did not have those. If we needed bags, needle containers, things of that nature, we're all set. But as far as plastic containers that we wanted to utilize, we didn't have them.
No.
We have needle containers that are plastic. We have blood swabs that are in plastic containers. But for what we wanted to take a sample, we did not have. So we improvised.
Correct.
That's correct.
Yes.
Sure.
Correct.
Blood was frozen. We didn't think it would be viable.
Correct.
I wasn't sure it would be efficient for testing.
Nope. We took six samples, individual samples. Our philosophy was we'll let the crime lab extract it the way they best see fit. Those six samples were bagged and then transported back to Kent Police Headquarters and placed into evidence. Were they covered? No, not that I recall.
