Lost Blood Evidence in Faith Hedgepeth Case | Durham News

Next month in Durham, a pivotal hearing looms for the Faith Hedgepeth murder case, as the judge weighs key evidence—including vanished blood samples from a bathroom door frame—and whether witness recordings can be admitted. With pre-trial motions packed this week, the defense questions whether critical forensic evidence was lost or never properly logged, citing testimony from technicians and a forensic scientist who says the missing sample could derail testing. Even a retired police lieutenant admits he never heard about the missing evidence. This hearing is a crucial step toward accountability before trial kicks off later this fall.
