that was something that I had overlooked.

And it was great to have somebody who is an absolute legend in the field, be able to walk through my scene with me and point that out.

So that was very useful.

I can only imagine that it was going to be an item of evidence that is an outlier, not necessarily a bloodstain or any touch DNA from

something that is stationary in the home i'm expecting or i would imagine that it's going to be some sort of article from something uh that is something that you can remove from that home so not a table not not a sofa it's going to be and some sort of article of clothing or a tool or something that is going to be that outlier where they will the dna from that item

Correct.

They definitely went back into reprocess and again, hopefully with a fresh set of eyes and more of a diverse approach so that additional evidence can be obtained.

So again, I can only speculate, but there's always the chance that something fell off of the perpetrator.

with a struggle.

So maybe that was something that got overlooked.

It could have been underneath the side of a couch.

It could have been something that just picked when everybody's in the home and they realize that it's there.

So it's something to consider.

And my thought would be worry about getting DNA from that item now, worry about excluding other people from

from it that have been in the house for the investigation and the family members, and then worry about the downstream process later.
