Apparently the BPD did test sample packages from the same factory but did not test the far more relevant panties from the same package in the home.

DNA in one rape test kit was not tested until a suspect was identified and in that California case the positive identification came just after the statute of limitations had run out.

There is a tremendous backlog of dna testing delays.

I don't think the killer of JonBenet Ramsey will turn out to be a frequent child-killer. I think this was a first or second offense type thing. But it is unforgivable for the BPD not to have exerted their best efforts in getting things tested.
