biological signs
The clothes Jubany wore the day she was killed remained in a courthouse for twenty years. A severely degraded biological specimen of an unidentified man was removed from the victim’s brown sweater. After the National Police reopened the case against Jiménez, thanks mainly to the named anonymous, they compared this DNA to Jiménez’s, but the result was negative.
At the same time, the National Institute of Toxicology and Forensic Sciences, after the Sabadell court insisted on taking back samples taken during the autopsy in Jubany hours after the crime, reported: from the cloths –cotton-tipped walking sticks– and also samples from the victim’s fingernail.
