In 2008, exhibits from Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon were sent for testing in a state-of-the-art lab in the UK.
Paperwork attached to the samples left no questions about what they were investigating:
“The three women are believed to have fallen victim to a serial killer”.
When the samples got to the Forensic Science Service, they were tested in an air-tight lab, which was known as the clean room. We heard anyone who left the ‘clean’ room and became ‘dirty’, they weren’t allowed back in, the lengths that the scientists went to, to try and stop contamination was detailed in court by FSS scientist Carole Evans, who travelled to Perth to appear in court.
The court had previously been told samples from another WA case were sent along with the Claremont Serial Killings samples.
Today we found out samples in the investigation of the suspected murder of an 11-year-old boy were also sent to the UK. See the investigation of the disappearance of Gerard Ross at https://thewest.com.au/features/gerard-ross
Join Natalie Bonjolo, Tim Clarke and Damien Cripps as they discuss what’s to come for the late sitting, answer some of your questions and discuss the relationship between the court and the media.
Tune in tomorrow to hear evidence from the two other UK scientists, who are giving evidence via video link during the night.
