She had to have some nails --

LE found fibers under her nails. I wonder how much nail she had. Of course I'll/we'll never know that. Nevertheless, if the marks on DW's arm was caused by finger nails, they would have had to be a good length- to dig out skin. Also, no DNA from DW was found under her nails no matter what length. I'm just (mentally) chewing through this one detail of (the arm marks) that bothered me.

It could be that any trace evidence was destroyed by the environment she was left in. Some evidence was just lost by her condition. So evidence may have existed and been lost naturally (they had to cut off her whole nail to do the scraping). Nicole Simpson's nails didn't have OJ's DNA and I remember at that trial the specialists explained you really have to dig.
