In a dramatic turn of events at the Home Circuit Court in Kingston, a seven-member jury was presented with compelling forensic evidence on Tuesday. The court heard that blood samples discovered in Constable Noel Maitland’s Chelsea Manor apartment in St Andrew had a 99.9999% probability of belonging to his missing girlfriend, Donna-Lee Donaldson, a prominent social media influencer. Maitland is currently on trial for murder and obstructing the lawful burial of a corpse, stemming from Donaldson’s disappearance on July 12, 2022. She was last seen at the apartment complex where Maitland resided. A senior forensic science officer, testifying as a key witness, revealed that blood samples were collected from three items within Maitland’s apartment and subjected to DNA analysis. The results overwhelmingly indicated a match with Donaldson’s DNA. The case has drawn significant public attention, with further details expected to be disclosed in the Wednesday Observer.
