I used to work in a hospital lab, so when I saw the video (edited and unedited) of the evidence collectors at the crime scene, that was all I needed to look more into the case. Seriously. Crime scene protocols and investigative lab protocols are much more stringent than most hospital labs, but even my untrained eye could see the multiple mistakes they were making.



This is a "biased" source, but just watch. If you want, turn off the volume and see if you can spot the mistakes re contamination. It's only four minutes, and would be highly entertaining in a Barney Fife sort of way if this evidence wasn't used to ruin the lives of two young people for eight years.
