How to fool the DNA experts...

Victim happy doctor convicted of sex assault
REGINA (CP) -- A rural doctor who slit open his own arm and inserted
a tube with another man's blood to foil a police investigation was found
guilty Thursday of sexually assaulting two female patients.
Dr. John Schneeberger, 38, of Kipling, Sask., was an "inventive, fanciful
and imaginative" witness, said Justice Ellen Gunn.
Outside court, the woman who first accused the South African-born
doctor of drugging and assaulting her atop an examining table in 1992
celebrated the verdict.
"This is a glorious day that I've waited for for seven years," the woman,
now 29, told reporters.
Gunn found Schneeberger guilty of two counts of sexual assault, one
count of administering a stupefying drug to commit the first assault and
one count of obstructing justice for foiling three separate RCMP DNA tests.


Court TV did a documentary on this case. They actually showed a video of the Mounties drawing this guy's blood for a DNA test, which showed him "innocent". He had sewn a tube of someone else's blood into his arm, so that the bulge looked like a vein, and that's where they stuck the needle. He pulled this off not once, but three times.

It goes to show that modern technology can cut both ways!

This has nothing to do with your post ... which made a very good point.
