The DNA evidence actually DESTROYED the case put forth by Marxist historians attempting to smear Jefferson. They had built their case almost entirely on a "proximity" scenario involving Hemmings' first child, which was born shortly after Jefferson returned from Paris. However, the study found that there was NO connection to the Jefferson line for that child. Did that get the coverage? No way... Instead, the absurd and improbable suggestion that an elderly Jefferson and 30ish Hemmings got together -- following years of public scandal involving malicious lies about the first Hemmings child and public and private denunciations of race-mixing by Jefferson. To believe the story is to believe that Jefferson was an unprincipled liar, which his life revealed him to be anything but! Kudos to the Jefferson estate for having the courage to stand up to this socialist realism!
