Item 6 — Albany Testing Control Bindle with Unidentified Hair

Item 6, a control bindle containing a swatch, was sent to Albany for defense testing; testimony stated that an unidentified hair was found upon its return that had not been present before shipment. Matheson said ownership had not been determined and was uncertain whether a quick racial assessment had occurred; contamination implications were raised.
