Forensics Scientist Checks Out Her Man

(07-03-07) 17:34 PDT Lansing, Mich. (AP) -- A state forensics scientist who said she tested DNA in her husband's underwear to find out whether he was cheating could be disciplined if investigators determine she violated the use of state equipment.

Ann Chamberlain-Gordon of Okemos testified in a divorce hearing that she ran the test on the underwear of Charles Gordon Jr. Asked by his attorney what she found, she answered: "Another female. It wasn't me." She also said that she ran the test on her own time with chemicals that were set to be thrown away.

Michigan State Police, which oversees the Lansing forensics lab where Chamberlain-Gordon works, started to investigate her after her husband's attorney wrote to authorities and media outlets questioning how many times DNA tests have been improperly run. Full story at SF Gate.
