In a dramatic turn of events during the high-profile murder trial of Constable Noel Maitland, a forensic crime scene officer testified on Thursday that no traces of blood or DNA evidence were found at a carwash on Lyndhurst Road in St Andrew. This contradicts earlier claims made by a former employee of the carwash, who had alleged observing a significant amount of blood on a settee brought in by Maitland for power-washing in July 2022. The settee was removed from Maitland’s apartment shortly after the disappearance of his 24-year-old girlfriend, Donna-Lee Donaldson, a social media influencer last seen in his company at the Chelsea Manor Apartment complex. Donaldson was reported missing on July 12, 2022, after being picked up by Maitland from her home in St Andrew the previous day. The forensic officer detailed her meticulous examination of the scene, using specialized equipment and chemicals, including Luminol, which would have detected any presence of blood. However, no evidence was found to support the earlier claims. The trial is set to continue on Monday with the testimony of a new witness.
