Stephanie Stanley testified on Day 15 after the court qualified her as an expert in DNA analysis. The parties placed on the record stipulations concerning the chain of custody for material sent to her and identification evidence previously addressed.
Stanley described DNA-profile results from items associated with the investigation. She reported profiles matching Merah Jones on bucket-handle swabs, Elias Jones on biological material from the Cadillac Escalade trunk, Nahtahn Jones on a center-console swab that tested presumptively positive for blood, Gabriel Jones on a pillow cutting and as the major contributor to a belt-buckle swab mixture, and Abigail Jones on sun-shade swabs.
The defense had no questions for Stanley.
