Touch DNA: I Predict This Will Be Featured in the Upcoming CSI Seasons!

This week, we saw a significant event in the investigation of the 1996 JonBenet Ramsey murder case. Investigators were able to use Touch DNA to exclude the Ramsey family from the suspect list. When I saw this reported, my first question was, “What the heck is touch DNA?” Apparently, I wasn’t the only person wondering. Here’s a clip from CBS Early Show where Harry Smith speaks with forensic scientist Angela Williamson, the investigator who worked on the case, and she explains the new technique to us.

    Gee, Sara could use this technic to finally nail Hannah for the murder Hannah commited in Good bye and Good Luck. That would be the greatest scene of all times Hannah finally having to take responsibility for her actions
