Tanika Warden is shown a list of all the items her lab received as evidence in this case. Warden says she was assigned the case by her supervisor, and she was assigned the red Dodge Neon.
After receiving a key to a secure bay where she says the Neon was kept, she then processed the vehicle on April 13, 2007. At the time the vehicle was at the state crime lab, she was asked to look for blood.
Upon encountering the vehicle, there was "apparent blood" on the driver's side door, she said.
Warden is then shown photos of the red Dodge Neon. The court can see all these photos as well on a large screen. She points out blood, bone, and tissue matter that she says were found in between the car door, from the driver's side door extending to the rear door and back of the car, she said.
Warden says she swabbed the stains and tested them to make sure that it was blood. She says that it was a standard test to determine if the blood was human or not.
The blood swabs she collected are then brought into evidence by the prosecution. Prosecution also asks her to look at a tissue and/or bone analysis from the door as well.
Prosecution then shows Warden a photograph of the interior of the driver's side door. She says she collected two swabs from that area. Using the touch screen, she marks the areas where she swabbed for blood. She indicates an area just inside of the door jam.
Prosecution has no more questions.
