DNA issues; and there are many

• Let’s begin with the matter of the only DNA expert who obtained Mark “cannot be excluded” results, is Lorrain Heath of DPS. And btw “cannot be excluded” is the same as “cannot be included.”
• Every single result the City of Phoenix crime lab had EXCLUDES Mark as a contributor.  
• The only DNA expert who told jurors one set of swabs was wet, in a baggie in a glass tube, was Lorrain Heath. She supposedly got results from these wet swabs. Heath’s testimony is in complete contradiction of the doctor and a detective who had both testified those swabs were dried and packaged in a paper envelope the way every other swab in this case was. But changes once in the hands of Heath. Not only is there the obvious swicheroo going on here, there is also the issue of mold developing and DNA degrading on wet swabs stored for 5 months in that condition. 
• In 2007 there were 300 in the database, with the Goudeau Y as the only one. Now 2 more UNRELATED males in the 1,200 Y-DNA database whose DNA are IDENTICAL to Mark’s paternal Y-DNA. Can you imagine how many more identical Y-DNA profiles there will be as this database grows? If there are now 3 UNRELATED males with IDENTICAL Y-DNA profiles, how many more in say 1 million?  
• DNA is water soluble which means it will dissolve or wash away in water. Only Lorrain Heath said she obtained Y-DNA results from a victim who was found face down in a bathtub full of water where she had been for hours. Heath would have a better chance of getting hit by lightening in her lab than she would getting any DNA results in this situation. 
• That every single raw DNA sample swab was destroyed/consumed by Lorrain Heath leaving absolutely nothing for Mark’s lab to test.  
• That once Alex Femania and Lorrain Heath found out Chromosomal Labs would do testing on Mark’s case for FREE, Heath destroyed every other remaining swabs, even those they already had results, needed no further testing. Even DNA extracts were destroyed.  
• The only DNA expert at the so-called Baseline task team meetings with Alex Femenia was none other than Lorrain Heath. No other DNA experts were allowed although there were many, many other DNA analysts involved in the research and testing.
• These are only some of the issues with the State’s so-called DNA evidence.
