Still waiting for the DNA Results
The DNA results ordered by the Tucker County Court in November 2009 should have been returned to Judge Jordan in March 2010. Almost three months after that we still have heard nothing. This is not to say that nothing is happening. The student attorneys with the Clinical Law program at the University of West Virginia have worked hard on this case and continue to do so with a new set of students likely taking over in the fall. The Tucker County prosecutor continues to play his role of defending his original prosecution. Justice must wait in the sidelines until the timing is right. We hope that will be soon.
