[CAPPSMADNESS]

From what I have read, the little girls hands were about the only things that were reasonably intact - and they were removed from the body and sent to a seoerate lab.

I sincerely doubt that if her tiny body was that horribly decomposed, then any trace DNA is also decompsed, if in fact, any remains. The supposed condition of the body is such that I doubt that any trace evidence, save maybe fiber evidence, will remain - the same thing happened in the Barnes case, and even though Barbara's killer is well known, there is no evidence to convict the SOB and today he is a free man.

I hope that they truely have the right man in this case.

Do you know whose blood they found in westerfields bathroom. In between fixing lunch, posting on FR, cleaning and watching the proceedings, I missed all of that.

Skin will dry and not totally decompose for quite a while. The skin that we see and feel is actually "dead" skin. If there are tiny particles of his skin under her finger nails they should be able to DNA it. I'm sure that they are working diligently to bring this evidence to light. Any forensic pathologist worth his salt is going to leave no stone unturned on this case.
