278. Certainly True
However it would be difficult to convict if the DNA evidence showed no match with any of the named suspect so far. I can say if I was a member of the Jury, I would likely believe that the woman was attacked, even raped, however the identity of the attacker would be in question. I for one would have to think that the DNA match, or no match, would be significant enough to create that widely sought after "reasonable doubt" that the accused is the guilty party.

Like most people, I am willing to affix guilt to someone, I just try and affix it to the right someone.
