The article is misleading. They did. DNA testing was done. There was a match on clothing he was wearing. I would be more concerned if no DNA testing was done, but that is not the case. DNA testing with different results will most likely prove the involvement of a 2nd party, but will not clear Skinner. I suppose the argument could be made that he was also a victim or in his drug-induced state he stumbled around in the mess and got covered in her blood that way. That's always a possibility and in my opinion, if there is any possibility of doubt, capital punishment should not be considered.

Snippet:
Suspecting Skinner in the triple-murder, police sought and found him at 3 a.m. at his ex-girlfriend's house standing in a closet wearing heavily blood-stained jeans and socks, and bearing a gash on the palm of his right hand. A toxicology test on Skinner at 5:48 a.m. revealed alcohol and codeine. Skinner was arrested.

DNA testing showed that blood on the shirt Skinner was wearing at the time of his arrest was Twila's blood, and blood on Skinner's jeans was a mixture of blood from Elwin and Twila.

Given everything in the article (not just the snippet above), I still feel there was lack of competency in his trial and that should pull him off deathrow immediately and those issues addressed for his case, and any other cases handled as poorly.
