This is weird because I have a toyota tacoma just like the one he drove and I never even considered a truck like mine to fit the description given.

Sorry, his DNA was an exact match on the Denison case and the other rape victim. Who knows how many more women are out there

Have you heard of a "hanging tree", that one way of getting this over. Let dead rest in "peace".

The Courts are convinced DNA evidence is absolute certainty. IT IS NOT. The DNA profiles use a small part of our DNA. Raymond Easton suffers from Parkinson's disease. By the year 2000 he was so disabled that he could not manage to dress himself alone. In spite of this he was charged with a burglary which had taken place 200 miles away from his home. Three years earlier Raymond was involved in a family dispute. He had been cautioned and a DNA sample was taken. Raymond's DNA matched that found at the scene of the burglary. Fortunately DNA testing offered a way out of the situation it had created. Once a fuller DNA analysis was made, differences between Raymond's DNA and that of the burglar became clear and the charges against him were dropped. Despite its increased resolution, DNA profiling is often not enough.
