Subject: Parents of Other Dead Yalie Question? (State Crime Lab not
"under-funded.")

Date: Sep 16, 2009 5:33 AM

ARTICLE BELOW.
===============================
They're not underfunded, they're run by
goof-off and jerks, like every other State of
Corrupticut dot guv entity. The detectives
and criminologists work on private endeavors
for private eyes, rather than plain old regular
cop investigations.

It's just like DCF who trade in State goodies
using AOL Instant Messenger, so that there's
no record of their crimes.

Perhaps the best example, is of course, "Lyme
Disease." The rest of the world knows what happened
here. "Lyme Disease" is not "a bad knee caused by
too many cross reacting antibodies to OspA:"
http://www.actionlyme.org./USDOJ_COMPLAINT_RICO.htm
as shown in the RICO complaint graphics.
According to Allen Steere before he sold out to Kaiser,
Lyme was "a relapsing fever, with new IgM antibodies
being the hallmark of persisting spirochetes:"
http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/01/slides/3680s2_11.pdf

The "State Crime Lab" can't figure that out?

They don't know how to do a "validation of a method?"
http://www.actionlyme.org/SV_PPT_2.htm

What are they doing, then?

What are we paying them for?

Parents Of 1998 Victim Ask Rell For More Resources For Investigations

By ALAINE GRIFFIN

NEW HAVEN —

The parents of Suzanne Jovin, the Yale undergraduate who was stabbed
to death in the East Rock section of the city in 1998, have written an
open letter to Gov. M. Jodi Rell, calling for more resources to help
solve the murder of their daughter and of Yale graduate student Annie
Le, whose body was found in a university building on Sunday.

"We hope that the person guilty of this terrible crime can be
apprehended quickly, which was unfortunately not to be true in the
case of our daughter," wrote Thomas and Donna Jovin in a letter from
Gottingen, Germany.

"During a recent visit to New Haven and consultation with the
investigative team," the letter reads, " ... it became apparent that
potential forensic investigations, made possible by significant
advances in technology in the intervening decade, are not being
carried out due to shortcomings in the Connecticut Forensic Science
Laboratory. This facility, once regarded as a leading forensic unit in
the country, is suffering from understaffing and inadequate funding.
As a consequence, the unit is struggling to satisfy the needs of
ongoing and emerging investigations, not to speak of "cold cases" such
as the murder of our daughter."

"One should not compound the tragedies of Suzanne Jovin, Annie Le, and
other victims by failing to apply the necessary resources for
resolving the circumstances of the crimes committed against them," the
letter reads.

"We appeal to you, in your capacity as governor of the State of
Connecticut as well as a mother and grandmother, to rectify the
shortcomings of the State Lab by providing the funds and expertise, in
and/or out of state, for conducting the forensic studies required to
achieve these ends, specifically in the case of our daughter Suzanne."

"I want to express my deepest condolences to the family and fiancé of
Annie Le," Rell said in response to the letter. "There is unspeakable
grief in their tragic loss.

"I am also very mindful of the deep pain that the Jovin family feels
every day since their beloved daughter was taken from them," Rell
said.

In August, Rell announced that the state will use nearly $2 million
from the federal stimulus package to increase the rate of DNA testing
on state prison inmates and to speed up the processing of DNA samples
at the Department of Public Safety forensics laboratory in Meriden.

Part of the grant is aimed to continue funding more than 10 positions
at the forensics laboratory so they can continue to process about
12,000 existing DNA samples and handle the influx of new samples.

"Our goals are simple: Solving more cases and putting more criminals
away," Rell said in an August release. "We want to see more cases
resolved more quickly -- something that not only will bring justice to
victims in a far more timely fashion but will reduce costs for the
courts and the entire judicial system."
