In 2002 Wisconsin enacted a cutting edge DNA law which was specifically put in place to assist with criminal prosecutions and to exonerate the innocent. Knowing there was undisclosed evidence of sexual assault, Laurie Bembenek immediately petitioned the court for DNA testing and review of the evidence related to the Christine Schultz Homicide. During that testing procedure it became obvious that the State no longer possessed the test fired bullets that its experts had used to connect the slug removed from the Christine’s body to Elfred Schultz’s off-duty gun. After delaying that disclosure for almost a year and a half, Assistant Milwaukee County District Attorney Mark Williams finally claimed that those test fired bullets were destroyed on September 26, 1986, by a flood that had allegedly occurred at the Regional Crime Laboratory.
In support of this false story of the evidence destruction at the crime lab, Williams presented to the DNA court a crime lab document which stated:
ATTENTION!
THIS FILE HAS BEEN WATER DAMAGED FROM A
FLOOD IN THE STORAGE AREA SEPT. 28,1986.
(Exhibit 13-1)
Investigative Consultant Ira Robins has now produced a portion of the July 28, 2005 deposition of Michael J. Camp, Supervisor of the Milwaukee Regional Crime Laboratory, wherein he admitted that he placed that false document in the homicide file.

Could someone please explain to me why this information never hit the media????
ReplyDeleteThankz for the inquiry. The media refuses to print or report it. They have taken the position of working with, or for, the District Attorney. Had they reported the truth from the beginning this would never have happened.
