Summary

How DNA Evidence Could Change Everything! #DNA #Knifesheath #Ce Ce Moore The DNA on the knife sheath left beside the body of Madison Mogen, and containing touch DNA belonging to Bryan Kohberger is powerful evidence.

This argument by the defense is weak as kohberger ordered a K Bar knife, a knife sheath, and a sharpener from Amazon 8 months prior to the murders.
