For three years TFG refused to turn over DNA sample.. Then.....
"After refusing to provide a DNA sample, Trumps lawyers switched tactics, saying they would provide one if Carrolls lawyers turned over the full DNA report on the dress."
They say TFG has had the DNA report without addendum for a long time.
I know, all inadmissible now. Trial underway w/o DNA or reference to it. Just think there must be a clue in all this!
And why did prosecution so easily give up the DNA route? It's a sure thing? Or maybe not ( i.e. addendum to DNA report? Warning w/ caveats?.
Anyone else trying to figure this out?
I know, word has it that TFG will be found guilty since trump didn't show up and because the evidence bar is lower for a civil trial...
Don't care, just trying to understand it all.

Get that dress not secured. Chain of custody.
You sound like you know infinitely more than I do!
PS. Sorry used prosecution word inaccurately

Chain or not, certain samples are harder to acquire than others. It's not like saliva on a glass.
Besides, didn't he already say she liked it, or something like that?

See the Murdaugh case with SLED in South Carolina relatively recently and their destructive analysis and handling of what they had.

One thing for certain? He is 99.9% hiding something

(231 posts)Trump's offer to provide a sample was made after his last motions to postpone the trial were denied. He refused to provide a DNA sample for 3 years. The late offer was made in an attempt to re-open discovery and expert analysis which would have forced a delay of the trial. The judge said Trump's offer was too late and the trial would proceed with both parties agreeing to not mention the dress during the trial.

(42,770 posts)If I was her, and I knew dna was his I'd have my attys move heaven and earth, even begging for a delay, to get that evidence in.
Hmmm. Something is fishy

(69,364 posts)There are lots of reasons why her team might have decided not to use it. No need to assume anything is fishy or odd.

(69,364 posts)He lies a lot. Makes promises, doesn't keep them.
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)air ( his quote), it all makes sense. Picture trump saying to his atty... " Ok what have we got to push this down the road?". And Tacopena saying " Well, you could agree to give your DNA?".
And TFG saying " whaaaaa?"
And atty saying " No worries, it will delay it all and I will think of something that makes you come out smelling like a rose"

(42,770 posts)the DNA?) If I was a player, with no money in game, I would have delayed until he gave the DNA.
Gotta figure out, tho she's trying harder than most, to outsmart these MFs.
Someone will do it!!!! Maybe someone with unlimited resources?

(9,565 posts)have dismissed it.
I believe the reverse is also true. If Trump didnt do it he should have begged his attorney to allow him to take the DNA test.
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)An honest person would have simply given his DNA.

(42,770 posts)With his DNA cuz he didn't give it. Not sure what a report like this includes.
Wonder if she can release it.

Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)DNA found on dress. At least one a male. But also *supposedly there are pages from DNA report missing. ( Per Tacopena). So he said trump would submit DNA if those pages were turned over. Court said too late to reopen discovery. So no mention of DNA
Who woulda thought DNA doesn't get washed out
*All per Daily Mail UK
Laura PourMeADrink
(42,770 posts)To provide DNA samples to match. Then told trump attys that there was an unidentified male's DNA on dress and asked for his DNA originally.
