Q: Did your lab conduct testing on evidence from the crime scene in this case?

Q: Tell the jury what types of crime scene evidence you tested and whether you compared that against the DNA of any suspect?

Q: And were you, in fact, able to identify the person who left that evidence at this crime scene?

Q: Before we get to the identification, let us first turn to exactly what DNA is. Do you have some charts to show the jury what a DNA molecule looks like and how it is used to identify people?
