| Brief Quote / Description of Testimony | “Q. Would he have given, or would there be any number type odds to the probability of the hair found on May Ann Fulsom’s bottom sheet and the hair, unknown hair found in her pubic combings, both belonging to anyone other than the defendant Calvin Scott? A. His hair, I would say this: his studies were made on caucasian hair, I believe. In this case having two hairs identified, two hairs of different kind, I mean, head hair from one person would be quite large, I would say, I would not give a figure. It would be quite large.” See Part II.B.2 for a discussion of this case. |
