Shouldn't that have been done earlier?

The # of pictures and overhead footage at this thing has been absolutely weird to me. What a time to be alive.

To keep this thread political, life sure must be good for so many people to spend this much time and energy on this case.

Keep that in mind, Democrats, and give a big thank you to your President Donald J Trump!

Sending in the the FBI now. Maybe they had already been there, but I don't recall.

Will they have to run DNA profiles on the 167 SO employees, 2458 media types and 14 dogs who have contaminated the scene?

I don't doubt they knew each other and the senator obviously knows the sheriff. Just weird to me to give Kelly the spotlight when you know he hates everything Trump and everyone Trump appointed. Not a good way to get the FBI involved early.



As an Arizonan it's sad that a person as horrible as Kelly is our senator. She made a poor,political choice.


The only thing worse than Mark Kelly would be our absentee, useless, inexperienced Governor Katie Hobbs in AZ. I don't think she gets involved in anything; except, fighting rumors that the Cartels bought her off.

She is such a stupid person. Her absence in this mess is a positive.

I think is the problem, the cowboy sheriff needed to let the experts run this from the start..

Unless you had blood stains or something you think the suspects touched, you probably aren't going to get anything for DNA at the scene anyway.

DNA tech is mostly specific to human DNA so dogs are a non factor.

Sorry but that's incorrect, a skin cell, or a hair will produce acceptable DNA evidence if handled correctly. Humans shed approximately 1.8 million to over 2 million skin cells per hour. This constant process results in shedding between 30,000 and 40,000 dead cells every minute, contributing to a total of roughly 43 to 57 million cells per day. These shed cells make up a significant portion of household dust. Any body fluid, be it sweat, blood, saliva, a tear urine whatever provides excellent DNA evidence, AGAIN if it's handled properly. See the common denominator in this.

In order for it to be irrefutable evidence that will stand up to scrutiny in court, the gathering of evidence has to be done correctly, the chain of custody has to be on point and the lab has to have all the current certs up to date, all those directly involved in the testing as well, and the results have to pass 100% the QA/QC that makes it possible to be matched in the CODIS database for instance. So again the common denominator comes into play.

DNA testing should be left to the real pros, and these third party players should stay out of the forensic evidence business when lives are at stake, or evidentiary validity in a criminal case is at stake. DNA testing even as a novelty business to last as a business model has to be legit, just look at the rise and fall of 23andMe and how it gained popularity because of its at-home DNA testing kits that gave customers supposed insight into their family histories and genetic profiles. Under scrutiny it fell apart turning out to be shoddy testing and pretty much a scam money grab, eventually failing uncer class action lawsuits, data breaches, and bankruptcy and reduced to nothing.

All in all DNA is a fantastic science but it's not for the amateurs, and even the pros can mess it up, and end up being carved up in court by lawyers like Barry Scheck who is known for his landmark litigation that has set standards for forensic applications of DNA technology. In this case Nancy's fate was seal the minute Savannah brought political connections into it and the inept actions by Nanos and company was exposed to a real criminal case beyond rolling drunks at the local pubs or DUI's. The crime scene was tainted disaster from the start and has only gotten worse. From here on out it's luck and theater. They'd be better off investing time in cadaver dogs and wider search patterns, because all the theater going on at the house is just for media show to distract from the fact this case is as dead as Nancy Guthrie.
