If Dusek used "match" and not "similar", then he lied to the jury. Because that's not what the forensics testified to. They all said, "similar", to the fibers.

No, he didn't lie. As I explained, the witness is only allowed to say "similar", but then they go on to lists all the ways the fibers are similar to each other.

The lawyers are then able to represent it as a match to the jury.

BTW, the hair under Danielle's arm was identified as similar to her own, I believe.

Also, there were samples taken from search dogs and investigative personnel, so it is incorrect to say these things weren't done to rule them out as contributing factors.
