Published at
It’s Day 7 of the Faith Hedgepeth murder trial, and 14 years after she was brutally murdered jurors are hearing some of the most compelling and complicated evidence in the case: DNA.
Tonight on “Courtroom Insider,” Grace Wong joins Nate Eaton to break down what we heard in the courtroom on Thursday as a forensic scientist was on the stand all day.
The expert revealed staggering statistical results linking Miguel Salguero-Olivares to DNA recovered from evidence in the case. But not every test delivered a clear answer, and the defense is raising serious questions about how evidence was collected, tested and interpreted over the years.
We’re breaking down the key findings, the defense’s challenges, and what it all could mean as the trial over Faith Hedgepeth’s death continues.
