DNA Expert NEVER testified in 2008 Walton Way rape case

According to the sentencing transcript on page 10,  Assistant D.A. (now, D.A.) Ashley Wright states:

MS. WRIGHT:  I believe that we do not need to go any further in establishing a factual basis, as the Court has heard the evidence and the Court, of course, is aware that we would be providing a DNA expert from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation crime lab to indicate that there is a match to the defendant or his identifical twin.

NOTE:  Daniel J. Craig was the D.A. on this case.

*********

So, in the first two days of the 2008 Walton Way rape trial, the DNA Expert from the Georgia Bureau of Investigations NEVER testified.  Why?  A life sentence for a "non-violent" man was on the table, and the most important piece of the case, the DNA Report, was NEVER confirmed by a DNA Expert.

There was a "burglary"/external vaginal DNA sample taken, and a "rape"/internal vaginal DNA sample taken.  NO "rape" DNA match was ever reported.  If the DNA Expert could have testified, then maybe that person would have better explained the DNA Report and how to read it when you have burglary and rape charges STACKED within one case. However, none of this happened.  The State relied on its own limited understanding of how to read GBI DNA Reports.

In addition, in my opinion, most people would probably find it hard to believe that a burglar with his hands full of stolen goods would put all the money, jewelry, and coins down for a quick one minute rape, but the lawyers in this case apparently felt it made sense.

Again, burglary is wrong.  

Stealing is wrong. 

False witnessing is wrong. 

Railroading defendants with crimes that they did NOT commit is wrong.
