A murder case that was more than 40 years old went unsolved until, investigators say, DNA testing helped them find a suspect.
Deputies arrested James Dye more than 40 years after the murder of Evelyn Kay Day. The DNA testing from a CBI analyst is now under question.WELD COUNTY, Colo. — Now, the case against James Dye is under question. District Attorney Michael Rourke filed a subpoena against CBI this month to learn more about how these findings could impact his prosecutions. Court documents say there are anomalies in Woods' work on the case against Dye.
"Information about the anomalies in the work of the DNA analyst, as it applies to this case and generally, is clearly discoverable. However the People have been provided with minimal discovery relevant to those issues," the document says."Given that there is an internal investigation and open criminal investigation into these issues, CBI, through the Attorney General's Office, has restricted what materials have been provided.
