Defense forensic DNA expert Ed Blake revealed after the trial that he didn't testify because his review of the case found no criticism of the testing conducted by Gary Sims or Dr. Robin Cotton. Defense non-forensic expert Dr. John Gerdes testimony raising doubt about most of the DNA evidence via contamination is omitted by the defense in all of their post- trial publications about the trial despite jurors mentioning his testimony in justifying their reasonable doubt, especially in their immediate post-trial interviews and in Madam Foreman (1995). Unlike the other experts in this case, Gerdes did not enjoy publicity from the trial because his claim that forensic DNA testing is unreliable was not true. This abandonment by the Dream Team of Gerdes contamination claim after the trial made the jury defending their verdict untenable.
