I'd bet that if the police gathered up all the fibers in my house and then did the same to yours, they'd find plenty of "similar" ones, that "may or may NOT" have come from the same source.

Exactly what I've been thinking. Are they making something out of nothing?

Don't suppose they will come up with some sort of definative fiber evidence?---all this 'similar', 'close to',
'possible match' doesn't prove to me that fiber technology is all too advanced. I can wrap my brain around the DNA, and fingerprint evidence (both fairly reliable, rarely challenged) - but the fiber evidence IMO is just too iffy.

Oh, yuck! I hate to think of that! Mine would be full of Golden Retriever fur!
