Cited to Support

May's allegation that SBI Agent Brenda Bissette completed the forensic analysis of evidence collected during the Riddle-Laird homicide investigation and that, although multiple SBI agents participated in the examination of evidence, Bissette was the only SBI forensic DNA and serology analyst presented to the jury at trial. The cited testimony is relied upon to establish Bissette's central role in presenting the State's forensic evidence. May relies upon this testimony to support his claim that the jury's understanding of the physical evidence depended heavily upon Bissette's testimony and that any inaccuracies, omissions, or misrepresentations in her testimony could have significantly affected the jury's evaluation of the evidence.
