This week I address the claimed rumours regarding the computer logins. We also look at the Amended Forensic Report and question how frequently touched items within the home could have no DNA on them. We talk about how the green towel found in the jacuzzi looks very similar to one that can be seen in the laundry.

If you haven't already, we strongly encourage you to join the Truth is Justice Facebook Group. Our members conduct a detailed analysis of the facts and offer an approach to the case that is objective, accurate and committed to the truth.

We look forward to you joining us next week on Truth is Justice, as we continue to set the record the straight!
