let s talk about the stain b which i believe you stated was one of the sleeves, is that correct? yes. stain b was on the sleeve, the left sleeve. and if you could tell us what your findings were regarding that, sir. stain b tested negative for the possible presence of blood. and i performed no further testing on that stain. and the stain c which i believe was in the back of that hooded jacket, what were you findings regarding that, sir? stain c gave me a positive result for the possible presence of blood. however, i was not able to obtain any dna results from my testing. i believe we have one more. tell us if you can what your findings were regarding that specific exhibit. in addition to the three stains that i tested, i was also asked to swab to see if there was any foreign dna on the cuffs or the lower part of the sleeves of the sweatshirt.
and then there was a mixture. the major was matched the defendant, george zimmerman? yes. and you were able to exclude trayvon martin as having dna on the pistol grip. is that correct? yes. trayvon martin was excluded as being a possible contributor to this mixture on the grip. i want to move next to the second part of the swab from the pistol trigger this time, on the previous exhibit that you examined, did you again perform or try to do the same testing, or tell us what that significance of that fdle exhibit 3 was, sir? the 21-b was a swab collected from the trigger of the pistol. i did not perform the chemical test for blood on that exhibit. the swab itself didn t give me an indication that blood might be present. okay. so this crime lab analyst is walking through these multiple swabs that he took on george zimmerman s gun to see whose dna was where.
