Subject: Cooper Files: Cooper-Part-77:312-314 Document: EC Seattle to FBI Laboratory re DNA and latent exams of items 1B8-1B10 Id: Cooper-Part-77:312-314 Page: https://cooper.theunsolved.net/documents/Cooper-Part-77%3A312-314 What is wrong (title, date, type, which pages belong together, copies)? What does the scan show?
A person reads every report. Corrections are made by hand, to the data — titles, dates, names, which pages belong together — never to the scans, and they can take a while to appear.

It is requested that the Laboratory test for and collect any latent fingerprints from any of the items that the Laboratory deems suitable for such testing. If any prints are found, it is then requested that the prints be compared to the unresolved 77 latent fingerprints that are maintained for captioned case.
---
On 08/24/2010, Seattle submitted buccal swabs from [REDACTED] DNA comparison to specimens b6 Q40/Q41 of captioned case. The Laboratory report stated the STR b7C typing results from specimen Q40/Q41 [REDACTED]
[REDACTED] was excluded as being the [REDACTED] the major contributor but there was not enough comparison data to compare to the two minor contributors.
---
Therefore, it is requested that the Laboratory test for and collect any DNA samples from the submitted 1B items that the Laboratory deems suitable for such testing. If any DNA specimen can be developed from the items, it is then requested that the specimen be compared to the MINOR contributors of specimen Q40/Q41.
