Including the Toyota key, and nearly every bloodstain inside Teresa's RAV4. Sherry Culhane testifies that it all points to one person - Steven Avery. But here's the thing… if it’s Teresa’s car, where’s her DNA on the key? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ REMINDER: For podcast listeners only.

The state's witness is Sherry Culhane from the Wisconsin State Crime lab. In this episode we learn how they do their testing at the lab, the protocols, the safeguards, etc. But here's what sticks out to me. She qualifies her statements; a lot. “We try to…” “We attempt to…” “We generally…” You would expect (or at least hope) that if someone is testing your stuff, you'd want definitive answers not ones that say "well, we did our best". If you’ve ever wondered how DNA evidence was tested back in 2006, what the standards were and how the process went, this episode will explain all that. The state is essentially setting the stage for what comes in the next episode: the actual results. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe & join the community: 🔔 YouTube: @BeachHouse34 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1665226558 📸 Instagram: https://Instagram.com/BeachHouse34Podcast 🚪 Patreon: https://patreon.com/BeachHouse34 ✨ Website: https://BeachHouse34.com/ 🌟💰 Tip Jar: https://ko-fi.com/beachhouse34 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎥 Related Viewing Making a Murderer on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/80000770 (Many people first learned about this case through the documentary, but this series dives deeper into the testimony and the real trial timeline.) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LINKS & SOURCES foulplay.site http://stevenaverycase.org/ https://www.youtube.com/@BM-iv9xu

The Avery Trial: Episode 42 - Locked Car, Open Questions: RAV4 Evidence Exposed

The Trial Files: https://pod.link/1845381299 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ In this episode of the Steven Avery trial, we hear from two people. Katie Halbach, Teresa's sister and her story about jeans, and Ron Groffy who was one of the people involved in taking photos of Teresa's car shortly after it arrived at the lab. And we've got some questions. First, Katie says something about Teresa owning a pair of Daisy Fuentes jeans. You know, the same brand of rivets found in a burn barrel. That's a bit concerning. The thing is, Katie doesn't know much about these jeans, only that Teresa had a pair at some point in time. Then we hear from Ron Groffy—he was called in on his day off to take photos of Teresa's car. Which would lead you to think that maybe the car had just arrived because he was the guy who took "before" pictures. Before the evidence techs started rummaging through it, getting fingerprints, and so forth. The problem though, the big problem, is that he said the driver's side door was unlocked when he arrived to take photos. At the scene, a big deal was made about the car being locked. So what was it? Locked or unlocked? Then we see what appears to be some kind of prints on the back wheel cover of the vehicle which didn't appear there before. What gives? Next, we'll hear from Sherry Culhane, who tells us all about the forensic evidence that became central to the prosecution. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✦━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe & join the community: 🔔 YouTube: @BeachHouse34 🎧 Podcast: https://pod.link/1665226558 📸 Instagram: https://Instagram.com/BeachHouse34Podcast 🚪 Patreon: https://patreon.com/BeachHouse34 ✨ Website: https://BeachHouse34.com 🌟💰 Tip Jar: https://ko-fi.com/beachhouse34 🎥 Related Viewing Watch Making a Murderer on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/80000770 (This case was first introduced to many through this documentary.
