FBI EDTA test results and Dr. LeBeau's proposed opinions about the blood vial and RAV4 bloodstains; the court allowed the expert testimony
On Day 16, the court heard competing arguments about FBI EDTA testing, including the test's limits and whether Dr. LeBeau's broader opinion would assist the jury. The court granted the State's motion and clarified that he could testify about both the blood in the tube and the blood in the vehicle.
About
The court allowed Dr. LeBeau to testify about the EDTA results and to give his opinion that blood on the RAV4 swabs did not come from the blood in the tube, an issue the court identified as relevant to whether the vehicle blood was planted.
