The other thing about the DNA results is that even if the prosecution did NOT itself introduce the report into evidence, the defense likely would. The results are clearly strong evidence in favor of the defendants Seligmann and Finnerty. And I think, on balance, the DNA results also are favorable to Evans - on the one hand, the inconclusive DNA link to the fingernail in the trash can is not more probative of her version than it is of it getting on there from a q-tip, a tissue, or if he was the one who put the nails in the trash or handed them to the police -- and on the other hand, the fact that the woman claimed she was beaten, strangled, clawing at, raped and sodomized for a 30 minute period and then, within 3 hours, without having showered or changed clothes or been outside of the observation of the other dancer or police, to have absolutely NO DNA from the three defendants of any kind, be it semen, saliva, sweat, hair, skin cells, etc and no substances indicative of condom use on or in her body is, to my mind, devastating to the prosecution case.
Also, the evidence of male DNA by her boyfriend found in the AV is going to be important evidence on the part of the defense to show that the sexual activity with the boyfriend could explain any genital injuries (especially if these are just "swelling" and "pain").
So, without knowing exactly what is in the full DNA report, it probably on balance helps the defense and they will not seek to have the results thrown out.
Thanks for the ping!
Evans could ask to separate the case from the other two and ask to have the DNA thrown out.
