In Washington, a jury deadlocked recently in the trial of a woman accused of stabbing another woman because fingerprints on the weapon did not belong to the suspect.

That should have been a straight up acquittal then not a deadlock.If the fingerprints on the murder weapon dont belong to the suspect its a pretty good bet that the suspect is innocent.

Good catch!

Now, without being affected in the least by the CSI Penumbra I'd ask next what happened to the person whose prints WERE on the knife? Did the prosecutor bring in any evidence that this was irrelevant?
