Crime Lab contamination log
Culhane described the log as a record used to troubleshoot contamination incidents and possible laboratory-wide problems. She said an earlier deviation she recalled was not documented in the log because it predated the logged instances. The defense cited the log in its renewed fair-testing motion, while the State characterized it as a corrective-action record.

About
The court said the defense had effectively used the log in cross-examining Culhane and that knowing of it earlier would not have changed the original fair-testing ruling. The court found no prejudice to the defense from receiving the log upon specific request.
