According to documents filed Monday in Cass County Circuit Court, Oklahoma-based DNA Solutions must be allowed to access skeletal remains for both Kara Kopetsky and Jessica Runions, whose remains were found in rural Cass County in 2017.

Documents also say DNA Solutions must be allowed to test hair recovered from a white SUV in 2013.

All testing must be done at the DNA Solutions lab in Oklahoma, according to the documents. The evidence must be returned to the Jackson County Medical Examiner’s Office and Belton Police Department by April 30.

Jury selection for the trial is set to begin on July 22. Jurors will be brought in from St. Charles County, which is just outside of St. Louis. Once the jury is set, the trial will begin the following Monday.

We are definitely not getting all the news anymore. All we get is the same news over and over being regurgitated. Laws are being passed and we’re not even aware! It’s happening in my state, too.
Exactly. A couple of years ago my sister informed us that MN was changing to no cell phone use in vehicles in hands at all, not a call, etc. She made sure my entire family knew and told me to tell my daughter and her bf. I did and it was months away. Somehow the month it was to change I remembered and reminded them. Not a one of us had seen it ourselves nor heard of it other than my sister informing me months before. She was right. I'm not a big cell user never was in a vehicle but the point is the public should know.

At JT I remember the first case I realized the Amber Alert had changed and had different criteria in different states. I started to sense with some cases as well that adoption had changed and there was some perk or payment for adopting. I don't know how many times I tried to look that up and couldn't find much to show it had. Now it has been found but many still do not know it.

To not derail this but bring us back to this case, yes, this type of thing with the jury not receiving things I encountered before. I never have mentioned it until now. I find it just another thing in favor of the defendants. If something is an actual transcript of the trial or a recording of an LE interview and was testimony, why shouldn't they have it if they can't remember or two jurors remember differently after days of trial to assure they are looking at the correct facts/testimony??
