So, you confess, that also means you can't prove it wasn't good old TJ. I guess it all depends what the meaning of "Y" is.

Better hope that you don’t ever have to testify in court because you don’t understand the basic rules of evidence.
You accused Jefferson of fathering Heming’s kids. It’s up to you to provide evidence backing that claim.
It’s not up to me to prove the negative. I just have to point out that you haven’t offered any proof to back up your accusation. That’s how the rules of evidence work.
The first accusation against Jefferson came from political hatchetman James Callender. But a resemblance between Jefferson’s children and Hemings was natural because Hemings and Mrs Jefferson were half-sisters, it didn’t require Jefferson to be the father of Heming’s children.
Then in the 1990s the Clinton gang resurfaced the charge in order to take the heat off of Bill Clinton screwing around. This time they tried enlisting DNA evidence. Their collaborators claimed that the presence of a Y chromosome marker was irrefutable proof that Jefferson had fathered Eston Hemings. It was designed to get into the tabloid press and impress the rubes who get their science news from The Enquirer. You, for instance.
The reality is that the Y chromosome only proved that someone in the Jefferson line was the father, and there were 20 some candidates. So you’re going to have to come up with another argument to prove, as you claimed, that Jefferson not only fathered Heming’s kids, but he raped her in the process. Good luck with that. Tell us your evidence, I know it will be entertaining.
