Police have T-shirt from U.Va. lacrosse victim

Posted to: Crime News

CHARLOTTESVILLE

Police have the T-shirt that initially was missing from a slain University of Virginia student's apartment, a city spokesman said.

Ric Barrick said Friday that victim Yeardley Love's family turned in the T-shirt a couple of days after police unsuccessfully searched her home for it. Police wanted the shirt because it might have trace evidence.

George Huguely of Chevy Chase, Md., has been charged with first-degree murder. Huguely and Love, of Cockeysville, Md., were U.Va. lacrosse players and had been involved in a relationship.

Search warrant documents released Thursday showed the shirt was not among the items police collected from Love's apartment.

Maybe the Virginian Pilot could get an investigative reporter to find out who the t shirt actually belonged to.

2+2 = ?

The shirt was missing from the girl's apartment. Her family turned it over to police. It appears to belong to the girl.

It appears, or do you assume

It appears, or do you assume ? Take a guess where the rest of my comment is heading.....

Hope it's not crucial

evidence, as a good attorney will discredit the chain of evidence needed to make it credible and admissible.

hmmmmm sniff sniff......smells like an evidence tampering defense to me, hope there is more evidence than this tying him to the murder scene to make it stick
