1980Prior to the trial, the blood in the medical examiner's possession was inadvertently destroyed "by attrition." Solely for this reason, and although the blood in the possession of the PSD remained available for further analysis, the trial judge suppressed evidence of both sets of tests, citing Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 , 83 S.Ct. 1194 , 10 L.Ed.2d 215 (1963).
