It was the laptop on the prosecution's table, but I was just making a joke of the content. I suppose someone with good software could make out what was on the screen, but I don't think it was terribly important or telling. It was just a joke, but the laptop screen was visible.

I thought "If you can read this, your case is fucked" on the prosecution's computer screen was so obviously a joke that I didn't need to explain it...

it is, but at the same time the technical ineptitude exhibited in this case (twitter, skype) doesn't rule out the possibility someone was able to 'hack' their computers and fuck around a bit. Long shot but it honestly wouldn't surprise me at this point.

Yeah, I was actually asleep while that Skype was going on, so I wasn't grounded in that type of context, but I guess I can see how others would think there was outside influences going on. My apologies.

I'd say this very much negates the prosecution's ability to use any lack of DNA against Zimmerman, as it's their fault.

edit:

Wow, prosecution barely gained anything on direct, and they are getting thrashed on cross. Theories of throwing the case on purpose are gaining strength with this witness lol.

So, are we learning that DNA evidence can be destroyed simply by making sure the evidence remains moist ? Perhaps wrapped in plastic ?

I tuned out after 1 hour of pointless talk with this witness. Could anyone summarize what was so significant? Did he indicate in some way that the evidence was improperly handled or something? It seems like it from this thread.

EDIT: Thank you crms.

the witness stated the samples were 'wet' and packaged in a material that is less than ideal for DNA testing. The samples should have been 'DRY' (air dried before sent to lab) and packaged in a different material. Wet samples can cause inaccurate results or lead to DNA degradation.

also the witness wasn't sure how the fingernail scrapping were done, if they only did 1 finger nail on each hand or all 5 finger nails, basically making the data (or lack thereof) worthless.

Moisture ruins the ability to extract DNA from samples. Bio evidence should be "air-dried", and packaged in brown bags, so it is able to breathe and dry out. The sweatshirts were placed in a plastic bag instead, thus preventing them from drying out, leading to DNA evidence being destroyed because the government fucked up.

edit: They can't very well argue a lack of DNA evidence found and use it against Zimmerman.

All I got out of this was that DNA evidence really isn't reliable enough to contribute meaningfully to this case. Am I missing anything?
