The State Vs, Leuluaialii (97-C-08256-9) and State Vs, Tuilefano (97-C-01391-3):
The crimes, which shocked Seattle and generated sensational publicity there for almost two years, took place on December 9, 1996. 20 year-old Raquel Rivera and her boyfriend, 22- year-old Jay Johnson, were shot and killed after men kicked down the door of the couple's South Park home, and were refused their demans for drugs or cash.
The couple's dog, Chief, a pit bull-Labrador mix, was also shot, and died two days later- but not before leaving his mute, but ultimately damning testimony on the murderers' clothing. The dog, thought mortally wounded and bleeding profusely from a shot in the face, was actually still running around the house when police arrived on the scene .
Two members of a local gang called the "Mad Pack," were arrested and charged with the murders. Eye-witness accounts, including those obtained from other Mad Pack gang members in plea-bargaining agreements, implicated the two defendants, Kenneth "Sable Claus" Leuluaialii and George "Scoppy" Tuilefano, both in their early twenties.
Two jackets and a pair of pants, alleged to belong to the defendants, were recovered and found to have blood stains and hair evidence that link them to the crime. After preliminary tests, the Seattle police lab indicated that the blood on the clothing was not of human origin. A reference sample of Chief's blood and samples of the blood-stained pieces of clothing were send to Dr. Halverson for testing. The results showed that the blood in Chief's referance sample and the blood on all three clothing samples matched at all ten loci. The likelihood of such a match occuring by chance between two different, mixed-breed dogs is approximately 1 in 300 billion! You can imagine what the verdict was.
The episode should be out by August, one of the crew members told me that they still have to interview an attorney from the prosecution team and a couple of the officers from the Seattle Police Department. So they have a lot more traveling to do and much more data to collect, in addition to writing the scripts and running it by production. I was kind of hoping the cute camera guy would interview me, but I figured it was for the best that he didn't, I probably would have responded with a chain of giggles. lol. So I settled for lunch followed by an interesting conversation about mitochondria DNA. No worries, I still got dolled up! my hair looks amazing considering this odd muggy weather.-

Those two defendants ought to ROAST in prison for what they did. Breaking into a home completely oblivious to what was not in the victims home shows not only cruelty but stupidity as well. To use that old and outdated woodrush of "I didn't do it!", all the while seen at the scene and given up by their 'brethren' shows not only their lack of sincerity but lack of logic as well. They don't deserve a place on this earth let alone a chance to walk the halls in prison. They won't last long in lockdown. Their lack of common sence won't let them!
I concur 10000%. I hope somehow those two subhuman cockroaches are tortured as much as pure evil can be tortured each day in prison for the rest of their disgusting, miserable lives.
dumb and dumber... Sad situation...
Suck balls
Those animals deserve the needle
