May's allegation that SBI Agent Brenda Bissette testified regarding DNA profiles obtained from evidence cuttings identified as Items 2iii, 7Ai, and 7Aii, including testimony that certain samples produced DNA profiles consistent with Mark Laird and Lyle May. The cited testimony is relied upon to establish the manner in which Bissette presented the DNA results to the jury after previously identifying the evidence as having originated from Darrell Godfrey's clothing. May relies upon this testimony to support his claim that Bissette's description of the DNA evidence created a misleading impression regarding the ownership and significance of the evidence samples and obscured the fact that the biological material being discussed was recovered from clothing worn by Darrell Godfrey
