TrueAllele computer reanalysis
Virginia reevaluates DNA evidence in 375 casesJuly 16, 2011
“Mixture cases are their own little nightmare,” says William Vosburgh, director of the D.C. police’s crime
lab. “It gets really tricky in a hurry.”
“If you show 10 colleagues a mixture, you will probably end up with 10 different answers”
Dr. Peter Gill, Human Identification E-Symposium, 2005

National guidelines provision
3.2.2. If a stochastic threshold based on peak height is not used in the evaluation of DNA typing results, the laboratory must establish alternative criteria (e.g., quantitation values or use of a probabilistic genotype approach) for addressing potential stochastic amplification. The criteria must be supported by empirical data and internal validation and must be documented in the standard operating procedures.
