STATE'S EXHIBIT exhibitsticker.com Page 1 of 3 000627 S-19 (b) Case No. CR01-24-31665 Laboratory Case Number: M2022-4843 Report No.: 7 The DNA profile obtained from Item 3 matches that obtained from the known reference sample of Xana Kernodle (See Item 8, Report No. 4 issued 11/20/2022). This DNA profile is at least 12.5 septillion (1.25 x 1025) times more likely to be seen if Xana Kernodle is the source than if an unrelated individual randomly selected from the general population is the source. The DNA profile obtained from Item 6.1 indicates a mixture of DNA. Xana Kernodle is a potential contributor to this DNA mixture. Assuming a two person mixture and that Ethan Chapin (See Item 5, Report No. 4 issued 11/20/2022) is a contributor, this DNA profile is at least 19.4 septillion (1.94 x 1025) times more likely to be seen if it were the result of a mixture of DNA from Ethan Chapin and Xana Kernodle than if it resulted from Ethan Chapin and an unrelated individual randomly selected from the general population. Madison Mogen (Item 11), Kaylee Goncalves (Item 14), Jack Ducoeur (Item 17), Bethany Funke (Item 18), Dylan Mortensen (Item 19) (See Items 11, 14, 17, 18, and 19, Report No. 4 issued 11/20/2022), John Showalter (Item 1), Cole Barenberg (Item 2) (See Items 1 and 2, M2022-4870, Report No. 1 issued 11/20/2022), and Jose Cruz (See Item 33, Report No. 6 issued 11/23/2022) are excluded as being contributors to this DNA mixture. The DNA profile obtained from Item 7.1 is consistent with that obtained from the known reference sample of Ethan Chapin. The DNA profile obtained from Item 9.1 indicates a mixture of DNA with a major profile, which is consistent with having come from Xana Kernodle. Ethan Chapin is a potential contributor to the minor component of this mixture. Assuming a two person mixture and that Xana Kernodle is a contributor, this DNA profile is at least 6,150 times more likely to be seen if it were the result of a mixture of DNA from Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin than if it resulted from Xana Kernodle and an unrelated individual randomly selected from the general population. Jack Ducoeur, John Showalter, Cole Barenberg, and Jose Cruz are excluded as being contributors to this DNA mixture. The DNA profile obtained from Item 10.1 indicates a mixture of DNA with a major profile, which is consistent with having come from Xana Kernodle. Ethan Chapin is a potential contributor to the minor component of this mixture. Assuming a two person mixture and that Xana Kernodle is a contributor, this DNA profile is at least 8,340,000 times more likely to be seen if it were the result of a mixture of DNA from Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin than if it resulted from Xana Kernodle and an unrelated individual randomly selected from the general population. Jack Ducoeur, John Showalter, Cole Barenberg, and Jose Cruz are excluded as being contributors to this DNA mixture. The DNA profile obtained from Item 12.1 is consistent with that obtained from the known reference sample of Madison Mogen. Page 2 of 3 000628 Laboratory Case Number: M2022-4843 Report No.: 7 The DNA profile obtained from Item 13.1 indicates a mixture of DNA with a major profile, which is consistent with having come from Madison Mogen. Kaylee Goncalves is a potential contributor to this mixture. Assuming a three person mixture and that Madison Mogen is a contributor, this DNA profile is at least 77,900,000 times more likely to be seen if it were the result of a mixture of DNA from Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, and an unrelated, randomly selected individual than if it resulted from Madison Mogen and two unrelated individuals randomly selected from the general population. Based on the likelihood ratio result 0.399, it is inconclusive whether Jack Ducoeur is a potential contributor to this DNA profile. Based on the likelihood ratio result 0.485, it is inconclusive whether Cole Barenberg is a potential contributor to this DNA profile. Based on the likelihood ratio result 3.33, it is inconclusive whether Ethan Chapin is a potential contributor to this DNA profile. Based on the likelihood ratio result 0.201, it is inconclusive whether Xana Kernodle is a potential contributor to this DNA profile. Based on the likelihood ratio result 0.0233, it is inconclusive whether Bethany Funke is a potential contributor to this DNA profile. John Showalter, Jose Cruz, and Dylan Mortensen are excluded as being contributors to this DNA mixture. The DNA profiles obtained from Items 15.1 and 16.1 are consistent with that obtained from the known reference sample of Kaylee Goncalves. Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) extraction and quantification, employing real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), were performed on the swab from Item 4. No DNA was detected on Item 4. No further testing was conducted on this item. DISPOSITION OF EVIDENCE: Items 6.1, 7.1, 13.1, 15.1, 16.1, and the swab from Item 4 were consumed during testing; however, DNA extract remains for these items. All other items and the empty packaging for Items 4, 6.1, 7.1, 13.1, 15.1, and 16.1 have been returned to the main laboratory evidence vault for return to the submitting agency. REMARKS: The descriptions, conclusions and interpretations stated above apply to the sample (s) as received. I declare under penalty of perjury pursuant to the law of the State of Idaho that the foregoing is true and correct.
