Hair/Fiber: Notable Case
In 1994, a woman was murdered with what seemed to be no traces of a killer. However, the only thing found on her was a few pieces of cat hair. The cat hair was analyzed and matched up to a Canadian man's cat. The woman's body was found in a shallow grave a few months after she disappeared & the police suspected her former husband. The cat hairs were found on a jacket stuffed into a plastic bag in the woods & they matched Stepehn J. O'Brien. This was one of the few cases in history where a person was convicted of murder on something other than human hair.

Good information about this case. I've never heard of it before, so it was a good to read it.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed that fact that you used a case that's not very popular it gave me a chance to read something new, and nice details. you could have maybe included a photo from the case.
ReplyDeleteThis case was very interesting. Many cases seem to repeat, but this is the first time I have seen this one.
