WHOSE BLOOD IS IT?! #truecrime #crimejunkie | Forensic Files

But finally, according to Debbie, 8 months later, >> 8 months >> 8 months later, the results finally
start coming in. The blood on Royy's shirt >> is Roiy's blood. No trace of Amber's. And that DNA under
her nails, not Royy's and not Josh's. >> Okay. Now the type of testing they have,
they were working with YSTR [music] testing which looks at genetic markers on the Y chromosome
>> and those get passed down from father to son. So all males along a direct [music]
paternal line have the same marker. >> So good news in this case, they have a match. It's McKini DNA.
Bad news, investigators can't say which one. It could be Michael or it could be Enk or it could be any other male in
that familial line for that matter. >> Yeah, but there wasn't any other family in the house that night.
>> Very true. So, with investigators knowing that they were the only two men from that family in the house,
>> and knowing that MK is the one who wasn't there when police showed up, and that he's the one who had scratches on
his arms when they met with him 3 days after the murder, MK is the one who is finally charged with Amber's murder.
>> The one So, just him. >> Yeah. They charge MK with murder and what will eventually be eight counts of
evidence tampering. But Michael and Josh get hit with evidence tampering charges,
too. And they all plead not guilty.
