| Judge Glenn Thompson then stated: "BUT THERE WAS NO MATCH." (!!!!) Mr. Dill responded THERE WAS A MATCH, and elaborated, saying there was a combination of DNA from Karen Croft Tipton and Daniel Wade Moore. Mr. Dill said that was his recollection, and that the record speaks for itself. Judge Glenn Thompson said, "The record speaks for itself, but THAT'S NOT MY RECOLLECTION." Well, indeed, the record speaks for itself. Page 1962 of the trial transcript, covering Roger Morrison's testimony says: "If you look at Daniel Moore's profile and the mixture profile and do the calculations, Daniel Moore is about seven and a half million times more likely to be the contributor to this sample than some random individual." This likelihood ratio was based on nuclear DNA tests Mr. Morrison did in the the state's forensics labs. This same finding is discussed at great length with Dr. Sinha from pages 1481-1488 of the trial transcript. Specifically, Dr. Sinha testified: "When he (Roger Morrison) took the root portion of the same hair and analyzed the nuclear DNA we found a mixture, and that mixture was consistent with and his report says and I agree looking at the report, it's consistent with the suspect and the victim's mixture DNA profile. And we did that and we found the first time we tested the hair. On mitochondrial DNA test, which is a different type of DNA test, had the same conclusion that there was biological fluid from the victim on that hair. And we took the other side of that hair, washed it and the result was consistent with the suspect." Under cross-exmination, Dr. Sinha explained further: "Understand I'm saying that I have a mixture. I have a victim's profile. I have a suspect's profile, it's a mixture. I washed it off now I have only suspect profile." To be clear: Judge Glenn Thompson seems to have forgotten the most basic, and the most important evidence against Daniel Wade Moore. He's FORGOTTEN THE DNA??? On January 20, 2004, Judge Glenn Thompson misrepresented this most material fact, sitting on the bench while preparing to turn the killer loose. I submit Judge Glenn Thompson has selective hearing AND selective memory, and it is clear evidence of both his bias and his ignorance. I might add that Judge Thompson had never even looked at the prosecution's motions regarding this hearing, and blamed it on his staff being a month behind in their paperwork. Well, it was Judge Thompson that set this date. If he wasn't ready, there's no one to blame but him. As a matter of fact, had he allowed the hearing to be delayed a couple of weeks, the FBI profiler who wrote these very reports could have been present for the hearing, and could have testified to the fact he never sent the alleged "report" to the police, that he did no investigation, and that he is, in fact, NOT AN INVESTIGATOR. But no. Thompson had plenty of time to review the defense's motions, just not the State's. And when it was all done, Thompson said he'd make his decision "as quickly as I find time." His actions suggest to me that he made his decision long ago. And that he only has time for his old buddies--not for the victims of violent crime. We may find justice for Karen one day. But it will never happen in Judge Glenn Thompson's courtroom. Here, we will only find EVIL. |
