In 1978, two FBI trained hair analysts said that the hair found on the crime scene was from Tribble, although Tribble denied that he had committed the crime they sentenced him, and was in prison for 28 years. After he was released they reexamined the hair and discovered that it was a
but unlike blood the fingerprint is unique to a single person. The fingerprints that were recovered show the they belonged to anna. After analyzing the patterns of the fingerprint found and comparing them to and all of the suspects. They belonged to Anna. hair was recovered on the scene.
Thousands of suspects and the filing enough facts to fill more than 753 3-ring binders. In 1999 another victim is identified in Kent as Tracy Winston, 19 years of age. Police start using new DNA process to identify the remains. The case at this point goes cold until 2001 when new DNA testing methods are used. State crime lab start testing Gary Ridgway's DNA with the evidence of the case.
Such as presenting the evidence of the two garbage cans were Herring allegedly hid the stolen stereo and car equipment form Peter’s Mustang. The CPD investigator opened two large sealed boxes containing the garbage cans that were located in the alley. The investigator explained the science to the jurors on finding fingerprints on the cans. The police apply a super glue to the areas of the cans where they think might have fingerprints and then use an LAS system which is a laser light they use to find and see fingerprints on objects. The investigator explaining the procedures on collecting the evidence did so in the simplest and clearest way possible.
Before the sun had broken on June 6th, 1996 Darlie Routier (26) of Rowlett Texas was pleading with the dispatch operator for immediate help. In this almost 6 minute long call (in which the police get there in 3 minutes and about 45 seconds in) Mrs. Routier seems to be in complete shock, as she begs the operator to quickly send police. However, in between brief periods of hysterical breathing and unintelligible sobs she soberly remarks how she picked up the suspected murder weapon and this could have tainted any fingerprints that were there before. It was her attitude that landed her in the media’s glare, however it was the evidence in this case, all circumstantial, that landed her on Texas’s Death Row. In this paper I aim to highlight and elaborate
They DNA tested all the blood and objects around the crime scene. Her body was covered in blood, but not enough evidence of the murderer at all. Although there was one piece of hair that was not Jane's, the investigators could not find out who it was. Brian Shahan was in charge of the whole investigation. There was a lot of DNA evidence around the crime scene, but there was no way to see whose DNA and footprints were there at that time in the world.
Forensic and Behavioral evidence pointed convincingly to Wayne Williams as the murderer of eleven young men in Atlanta. In 2010, a DNA test was conducted on the scalp hairs found on a body dumped down a wooded slope behind an office park on February 13, 1981. It was of 11-year-old Patrick Baltazar. Inside the boy's shirt, two human scalp hairs were discovered. Although the results were not conclusive, the FBI's DNA laboratory listed the odds of 130-to-1 against the hairs coming from any person other than Wayne Williams.
James. A.Williams or otherwise known as, Jim Williams, was a good man, for the most part. He was a well known antique dealer, who was highly respected by all who knew him. He had played an active role in the restoration of Savannah’s Historic district downtown, starting in the mid-1950s. Jim Williams was also well known for his “ have to be there,” christmas party that was always held the day before the Cotillion debutante ball.
In September of 1961, a woman from District of Columbia had an intruder break into her apartment. While the invader of the home was there, they had taken her wallet, and also raped the woman. During the investigation of the crime, the police had found some latent fingerprints in the apartment. The police then established and processed the prints. The prints were then connected back to 16 year old Morris A. Kent.
Police believed that Keisha was moved by the killer out of the home once they killed John. Andrew Rich, the leading suspect in the case let slip that he was going to Texas for some business to Sharon. In Texas, he sold an item of John’s that contained hairs. These hairs belonged to Kisha, linking Andrew Rich to the crime scene and finding him guilty of the murder of John. Case of Claire Joseph’s Murder (Fiber) Victim: Claire Joseph Suspects: Bernard
The hair was found clenched in Anagnos hand, and was believed to have come from the suspect, but the laboratory at the time was not able to match the hair samples to Wright who was 50 at the time of his death. Wright was identified as a suspect when detectives learned he was involved in an argument with Anagnos about an hour before the bar’s closing, according to Brown. The DNA test confirmed the hair found in Anagnos’ hand belonged to Wright, according to Brown. Thats how they solved a 30 year old
Wayne Williams was found guilty of the killing of two people. Even years after William’s still tries to persuade the idea of him being innocent. Just like fingerprints, hair analysis is following the same path. I think that DNA fingerprints will become bigger and more accurate of accusing killers, the use of hair analysis will decrease, but I do not think hair analysis should be taken away.
Name of case: 1977 Cold Murder Case Victim: “Jimmy the Geek” Suspects: Frank Wright How hair played a role: The hair that was clenched in Jimmy’s hand, supposedly the murderers, was analyzed and matched up to Frank Wright many years after the murder and the case was solved.

The sample was later confirmed to not be his but that of a dog.
The speaker for the night terror informational speech had poor stage presence. Her clothing was extremely casual and she kept constantly swaying back and forth throughout the speech. The introduction did not clearly lay out what all her speech would cover, but she did relate it to the audience. Her over all casualness made the speech lose its professionalism and may lead to some of the audience questioning her credibility.
Murders that are left unsolved leaves family members puzzled and wondering. It is important that we solve murders so we can stop the victim from doing it again. I already know a bit about DNA evidence from my KWL chart crime research, but I would need to learn more about its specific application in cold cases. In my preliminary research, I learned that DNA has helped solve many cold cases over the years. There have been cases where decades-old evidence was retested with updated technology and resulted in identifying the victimizer.
