317 The Crown does not accept that a tribunal of fact would be confined in
their consideration of that question to the evidence of the blood experts,
being Ms Gerhard, Ms LeCompte, Ms Campbell and Dr Hallam. The fact
that the experts put it no higher than “possibly blood” is, the Crown
submits, of little moment. The experts have considered but a small part of
the Crown case in expressing that expert opinion. The Crown notes that
the jury will be asked to consider the Crown case in its entirety.
319 Whilst noting that the blood experts cannot state definitively that Item 550
is blood, the Crown submits that definitive proof is not the applicable legal
standard. The blood experts jointly opine that it is "possibly blood” based
on factors which they took into account. Their opinion is based upon the
realms of scientific possibility. Their joint opinion forms part of a larger
circumstantial Crown case.
320 The Crown submits that the tribunal of fact will also have before it the
evidence of mixed samples from the crime scene, including Item 616
which was described by Dr Walsh as displaying a "very high degree of
similarity” to Item 550, with Item 616 having been sourced from a swab of
apparent blood stain on a mattress in the bedroom in which Henry Lin and
Terry Lin were killed.
