OH! OH! Another thought. If the hair is human, couldn't Laci have picked it up at the salon where Snott had his haircut on the 23rd....after all, she WAS in the same clothes....

Yes, that's certainly a thought... for that matter, if the hair had been Scott's, Scott could try to explain it away by saying, "Laci had a couple of Scott's hairs on her clothes, not unusual given that she lived with him in that house..."

Come to think of it, Jackie, suppose the hair WAS Amber's, that would be a lot harder for Scott to explain. Amber was never in Scott's and Laci's house; Amber and Laci never met; if a piece of Amber's hair appeared there, seems like one could conclude that it fell off Scott's clothes--which would of course tend to prove that Scott had contact with the duct tape that was around Laci.
