Wife's DNA Found on Victim But Husband Excluded, Expert Testifies

Her DNA was on his jeans. Her husband's wasn't. The prosecution's own expert just handed the defense a talking point. Christine Banfield's DNA was found mixed with Joseph Ryan's blood on the jeans he wore the day they both died. But when the DNA analyst from Bode Technology delivered her findings, she also confirmed something significant: Brendan Banfield is excluded as a contributor to the blood evidence. So is Juliana Magaz. If the State's theory is that Brendan stabbed his wife in that bloody bedroom, why isn't his DNA anywhere on the victim's clothing? The defense didn't even need to cross-examine. The prosecution's own witness testified that the man they say orchestrated this murder left no trace on the physical evidence they tested. ⏰ KEY MOMENTS 00:00 - DNA analyst Madeline Crowley takes the stand 00:37 - Qualifications and Bode Technology background 03:55 - Analysis of Joseph Ryan's jeans introduced 05:47 - Results: Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan identified 06:36 - Brendan Banfield and Juliana Magaz excluded from DNA 09:17 - Second sample confirms same results 10:03 - Stipulated DNA report entered into evidence 📖 FROM THE DESK OF JUSTICE: https://www.justiceisaprocess.com/des...

Joseph Ryan was found shot dead beside her. Brendan Banfield and au pair Juliana Peres Magalhães initially claimed self-defense, saying they discovered Ryan attacking Christine and fired to stop him. That story held for 570 days. Police found no forced entry. They found communications on FetLife between Ryan and an account in Christine's name, planning a sexual encounter involving a knife for the morning she was killed. They found a framed photo of Brendan and the au pair on his nightstand eight months later. Magalhães was arrested in October 2023. She pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter in October 2024. Under her deal, she gets time served if she testifies against Banfield, then deportation to Brazil. She's the State's star witness. Banfield was indicted in September 2024 after an investigation marked by internal conflict. The digital forensics examiner concluded Christine controlled her own accounts and was transferred out of the unit. The lead detective testified he was pressured to support the catfishing theory and was moved after the arrest. Christine Banfield was 37, a forensic nurse who spent her career helping sexual assault survivors. She left behind a four-year-old daughter who was in the house when her mother was killed. 📂 PLAYLISTS & RESOURCES 🌐 Website: https://justiceisaprocess.com ► Live Broadcasts:    • LIVE BROADCAST: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► No Breaks Edition:    • NO BREAKS EDITION: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► Trial Podcast:    • TRIAL PODCAST: VA v. Brendan Banfield   ► Key Moments:    • Key Moments and Testimony: VA v. Brendan B...   ► Subscribe:    / @justiceisaprocess   ⚖️ ABOUT JUSTICE IS A PROCESS This channel continues the work of Steven M.
