Monte Sereno Murder Case Shows How a Homeless Man's DNA Wound Up on a Victim He Never Met

A homeless man spent more than five months in jail on a murder charge because his DNA was on the victim's fingernails, though he was unconscious in a hospital that night with a blood alcohol level of .40. Investigators came to believe paramedics who treated him and later responded to the crime scene carried his DNA there, possibly via a pulse oximeter.
