What can I say? The media never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Here is a fact – Murdoch’s DNA was not just located mixed with Falconio’s on Lees’ shirt it was also located on the inside sticky surface of the makeshift shackles he made and put on Lees’ wrists. These were cut off Joanne by the truck driver who picked her up and placed in his toolbox where they were collected by police at Barrow Creek. (This chain of evidence was covered by statements and witness accounts tested and cross examined in court).

I love how Chanel 7s story only briefly mentions DNA evidence in the first part (calling it disputed) then there is no further mention. Clearly they did not want to talk too much about it as Murdoch has lost 2 appeals that I know of questioning the DNA evidence.

This is a testament to the forensic collection and chain of evidence that has been appropriately scrutinised in court more than once.

People have faults and not everyone is going to play the stereotype victim on a time of crisis. But the science does not lie it can only be tested.
