About
Jackson established that Kun received only the swabs, never the source garment, meaning she could not verify collection methods. Inhibitors were found in the nuclear DNA test, and the swabs were collected specifically to investigate possible dog bite injuries consistent with the defense's animal attack theory.
Two swabs taken from a shirt (including the damaged right sleeve of O'Keefe's sweatshirt), submitted as MSP case 22-02184, item 7-1, 1816, and sent to UC Davis Veterinary Lab for canine DNA testing. The source garment itself was never sent to UC Davis.
