To freak the guy into running...!

EDIT--in any event, it doesn't matter--the double DNA comes from the lab tech who worked on both cases. It was poor procedure on the part of the lab worker, who is in trouble, most likely, right about now.

I have given up on Yahoo for news. Their editorial standards (if you can call them coalition_unwilling Jul 2012 #2

It was an AP report n/t johnnie Jul 2012 #4

AP is just about as bad, imo. I think it got taken over by coalition_unwilling Jul 2012 #7

It is shittily written, but I am not getting out of it what you are... MADem Jul 2012 #3

I think the guy they questioned was in 2004 johnnie Jul 2012 #5

Yes--that loony-looking but fit fellow in the tape is the suspect. MADem Jul 2012 #28

Worst. Murdoch. Propaganda. Ever. The 1% knows that Occupy is going to win. Zorra Jul 2012 #8

Since Occupy is leaderless and has no criteria for membership, anyone who says they are, is. FarCenter Jul 2012 #9

Why would you use the acronym WTF? randome Jul 2012 #12

Because the article makes little sense. johnnie Jul 2012 #17

I think the article makes sense but the headline, I admit, is over the top. randome Jul 2012 #20

Really? Zorra Jul 2012 #22

No--"There's no immediate evidence that the DNA belongs to the protesters MADem Jul 2012 #30

Really? No. What they wanted, and what they've done, is to make people afraid Zorra Jul 2012 #37

That quote is not my words--it's from the article. But you are wrong--there already HAS been a MADem Jul 2012 #38

I was wrong? WTF? Are you kidding me? Zorra Jul 2012 #43

You were wrong in that there WAS followup to this lousy story--that's all I meant. MADem Jul 2012 #46

Aw, gosh, looks like you were mistaken. Zorra Jul 2012 #42

If nothing else it is a poorly written headline. Poor as a FOX................ wandy Jul 2012 #13

No, just a lab fuckup--it is being widely reported, right now... MADem Jul 2012 #40

It was cross contamination. The same NYPD rep handled evidence at both scenes. smokey nj Jul 2012 #31

Yes--it looks like a false match due to police error contaminating evidence pinboy3niner Jul 2012 #35
