Scientist fired after testing DNA on husband's underwear to see if he was cheating

[Mrs. Overall]

LANSING, Mich. (AP) - A state forensics scientist who said she tested her husband's underwear for DNA to determine whether he was cheating on her has been fired.

Ann Chamberlain testified in a March 7 divorce hearing that she ran the test last September on the underwear of Charles Gordon Jr. Asked by his attorney what she found, she answered: "Another female. It wasn't me."She said during another hearing that she ran the test on her own time with expired chemicals that were set to be thrown away.

An attorney for Gordon, Michael Maddaloni, said his client - who court records show was a defensive back with the Canadian Football League from the early 1990s through 1997 - disputed his wife's testimony that he acknowledged a sexual encounter with another woman after she found the female DNA on his underwear.

Chamberlain worked for the state police as a forensic scientist since 1999 and was interim supervisor of the biology unit in 2005, according to information posted on the Web site of Williamston-based Forensic Science Consultants Inc., where she began doing laboratory analysis last year.

1. You'd think a cheater married to a forensics scientist

would realize the value of taking a shower before putting his clothing back on.

Then again, he's probably an arrogant SOB who thinks he can beat all sorts of tests.

2. This thread "gives me furiously to think" as Hercule Poirot

would have said. Why did aforementioned cheater, besides not showering, not also change his shorts?? Must not read any detective fiction either!
