Hello Cyn. Good to hear from you. Really? How does one go about transferring the fingerprints?

I had discussed this last month with another poster, and he told me that transferring prints was not that hard. The funny thing, since you mentioned it, is that the print in the MH was described by the expert that found it, as being UNUSUALLY WELL DEFINED. That after repeated transfers (making a copy of the print), it was still well defined.

This indicates to me it wasn't NATURAL at all . That someone transferred it there, and made DARN SURE it would stay and be easy to ID.

The fingerprints with dusting powder were still in place when the jury went in the MH for their viewing.

(EXACTLY. Ask a print expert, that in itself is HIGHLY UNUSUAL for a normal print.)

The fingerprints were placed with alot of pressure is my understanding. (more than a child could put there, huh?. More like some adult with a transfer kit using a roller on the transfer paper.

Or conversely, that her hand was damp with the sweat, tears and salive as a sobbing victim of assault.

Hello.

On the contrary, I find the well-defined nature of the print goes to a non-transferred state of the print and is indicative of the child fighting for her life pressing with all her might.
