Mark Carver spent eleven years in prison after being convicted of Ira Yarmolenko's murder based primarily on touch DNA evidence that was later proven unreliable and possibly contaminated. His case exposes the dangers of touch DNA in criminal proceedings, where innocent people can be convicted through primary, secondary, or tertiary DNA transfer that places their genetic material at crime scenes they never visited.

If Carver and Cassada didn't kill Ira, then who did?
