66 year-old Angelika Dries-Jenkins was found dead on her dinning room floor at her Narberth home in June last year.
This afternoon, the court heard evidence from forensic scientist Martin Whittaker.

The court was told that the chances of the blood and DNA belonging to anyone other than John Mason and Angelika Dries-Jenkins were "one in a billion."
The prosecution claim that Mason discarded the jumper in a car park bin in Haverfordwest shortly after the pensioners murder.
