DNA belonging to a man charged in connection to a 2019 shooting outside a Whitehorse bar, as well as that of two others,was found on a handgun, according to a forensic DNA analyst with the RCMP.

Connie Leung, along with RCMP officers, provided expert testimony this week as part of a trial into the shooting, which left one man, John Thomas Papequash, critically injured.

Malakl Kwony Tuel faces 13 charges, including attempted murder and various firearm offences.

A second man who was at the bar that night is also being tried. Joseph Wuor faces five charges, none of which are connected to the shooting. His counts include cocaine possession for the purposes of trafficking, and possessing a loaded prohibited or restricted firearm.

'I can't exclude him or include him'

Leung said she discovered a DNA profile that matches Tuel on the gun's frame, located below the slide, which is used to reload the weapon.

She told court she also foundDNA from at least two other individualson various gun parts, including the muzzle, trigger and magazine. Shesaid Tuel's profile on the firearm is, overall, "quite weak."

Asked by the Crown whether Tuel's DNA can be ruled out from the trigger and other areas, Leung said, "I can't exclude or include him."

She said she can't ascertain who, exactly, last held the gun, nor can she determine who fired the pistol.

"I can't say when or how [the DNA] got there," she said, "just that it's there."

Leung said DNA can, in theory, stay on items for an extended period of time. But, she added that certain environmental conditions heat and moisture, for example can affect the strength of a given DNA profile.

Asked whether Tuel's DNA could have been transferred to the gun by touching clothes or another item, Leung said it's possible.

RCMP officer says seized items could point to drug dealing

Officers tasked with investigating the shootingseized various items, including cash, cellphones,magnetic key holders, a handgun and "spitballs."

Story continues

A spitball is parlance for cocaine packed and tied in a plastic bag.

RCMP Sergeant Jill McLaren, who was part of theinvestigation into the shooting,told the court a cartridge was found at the scene, as well as a fully intact bullet.

RCMP Corporal Guy Lacroix, whose experience includes drug enforcement, said seized drugs point to trafficking. He was not involved in enforcement efforts relatedto the shooting or the subsequent investigation.

Lacroix said cocaine will eventually lead to "money, more cocaine and firearms."

Several photographs of drugs identified as cocaine were exhibited in court. Large and small bags appear to contain crack cocaine, said Lacroix, adding the way drugs are individually wrapped is consistent with drug trafficking.

Lacroix said as he conservatively estimates the gross value of the pictured drugs to be upward of $13,000.

"This is a significant amount of money," he said.

Under cross examination, Lacroix said the seizure could be indicative of street level drug dealing. He said drug trafficking in Yukon is a pyramid structure, but thepyramid is "squished," likely due to the territory's relativelysmallpopulation and its transient nature.

Lacroix also spoke to the more than 10 cellphones that were obtained. He said dealers typically used burner phones to communicate with clients, colleagues and suppliers. That multiple phones were found by police in sofew locationssuggests "bad housekeeping," Lacroix said.

He said magnetic key holders are devices used to house bulk portions of cocaine. He said these holders are commonly attached to the exterior of vehicles to not only hide drugs, but to avoid ownership of them if found by police.

"This is consistent with the distribution of cocaine," said Lacroix.

RCMP officers previously told the court about $500, two cellphones and four small bags of cocaine were found on Papequash.

Under cross examination by Dale Fedorchuk, Tuel's lawyer, Lacroix said these items could also suggest drug dealing.

"I would have to look at the bags, but it's possible," he said.

Prosecutors have wrapped up presenting their trial evidence. In the coming weeks, Crown and defence lawyers will submit written arguments. A judgment is expected sometime next month.

Defense is at the core of the Celtics, not just this edition, but woven into the franchises championship DNA. In the spirit of Bill Russell, K.C. Jones, Dave Cowens, Dennis Johnson, and Kevin Garnett, the Celtics applied it suffocatingly when it was needed most. That adamantine defense was inescapable and impenetrable, even for a generationally gifted Golden State team. Their defensive stance and stand have the Celtics two wins away from Banner No. 18.

Get Court Sense

Bounce around the NBA with our Celtics-centric look at the latest happenings on and off the court.

In a sport where offensive output routinely lands in the triple digits, defense wins championships. Its clich and true. It definitely won this contest after the Warriors took their first lead since 2-0 83-82 on a Curry quick-trigger 27-footer with 3:45 left in the third, stunning the rowdy TD Garden crowd.

From that point, the Celtics limited the Warriors to just 7 of 22 from the floor over the final 15-plus minutes. Golden State registered two threes in its final 13 attempts. Curry (31 points and six threes) and Thompson (25 points and five treys), who rained 25 of their points in the third, were more like Drip and Drab than Splash Brothers, shooting a combined 3 for 12 after Currys lead-snatching salvo.

Of course, they hit some big shots there, said Celtics coach Ime Udoka. But we talked about it quite a bit, our group being resilient and being able to fight through a lot of things and at times when its most needed, being able to lock down on defense, which we did in the fourth quarter.

Did they ever

The Celtics turned more penurious than famed fake German heiress Anna Delvey. They gave Golden State nothing and took everything, drowning out the Dubs, 23-11, in the fourth after allowing 34 and 33 points in the second and third quarters.

Golden State shot 11 for 22 overall and 7 for 14 from three in the third to flip the game. However, coach Steve Kerrs crew mustered a meager 5 of 15 against the Celtics dominant defense in the final frame. The Celtics surrendered zero offensive rebounds and forced half of the 16 Warriors turnovers.

They did a great job pressuring us, said Kerr. We went back to Steph to start the fourth. We gave him the last three minutes or so of the third because we knew we were going to have to score to start that fourth quarter. Just couldnt get anything to go.

We had a couple turnovers and a couple shots that didnt go down, and they took advantage.

The Celtics defensive appetite and aptitude should not be surprising, nor should it be a surprise that defense carried the charge on a night when Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Marcus Smart all scored 24 points or more.

The one constant in a season of unpredictability and a remarkable sea change in fortune has been the Greens defensive prowess.

Udoka said the defensive buy-in came quickly in his first season on the Boston bench. It was the offensive buy-in that didnt kick in until January when the season took a sharp U-turn toward title contention.

During the regular season, the Celtics had the No. 1 defense in the NBA, allowing 106.2 points per 100 possessions. Thats dipped to 105.9 in the postseason, second only to Milwaukee. They held opponents to a league-best 43.4 percent shooting during the regular season. Its 43.5 in the playoffs.

Defense is the Celtics calling card, and they dialed it up big time in the fourth. They had to after they wasted a 68-point first half in their personal basketball Bermuda Triangle the third quarter.

The third has become the vanishing point for the Celtics. They were outscored, 33-25, this time, salvaging a 4-point lead (93-89) to take into the fourth after leading in the third by as many as 14. In their Game 2 loss in San Francisco, they were obliterated, 35-14, in the third.

The theme for the Celtics with the game in the balance was deny, deny, deny.

It helped them restore a double-digit lead via a 9-2 run. The defensive catalyst was center Robert Williams. He collected three steals and had a monster block of a Curry floater in the fourth.

Williams, whos not 100 percent after late-season surgery on a torn meniscus in his left knee, left his imprint on this game against the undersized Warriors and motor-mouth Draymond Green, finishing with 8 points, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 3 steals.

When hes healthy, he just adds another element, said Brown, who contributed a tone-setting block of his own in the fourth and finished with a team-high 27 points, 9 rebounds, and 5 assists.

On top of our defense being good, it turns it to great.

Brown said Williams couldve won Defensive Player of the Year. The Celtics have two Defensive Player of the Year-caliber defenders in Smart, the actual award winner, and Williams, the most impactful Celtic defender.

The Warriors went 0 for 9 when Smart contested a shot, and the fan favorite enjoyed a charmed night offensively too with 24 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists despite 5 turnovers, making his shots count and making them when it counted.

But what looked like a night that would be defined by offense when the Celtics played a sublime first half on that end was instead dictated by defense, fitting for this iteration of the team.

Defense kept them afloat in their darkest hours, and its what delivered them halfway home to a championship.

UPDATE: After our story aired, the Department of Child Services confirmed emergency blood tests would be done to determine the childs DNA before he was surrendered back to his birth parent.

Original story:

CARMEL, Ind. The founder of the Safe Haven Baby Boxes claims the Department of Child Services is giving a surrendered infant back to his parent without doing a DNA test first.

We cannot be just pretty sure that this is the bio parent, their words, not mine, Monica Kelsey, founder of the Safe Haven Baby Boxes, said in a popular video posted to social media.

Kelsey said she has spoken with a relative of the woman claiming to be the mother of an infant surrendered in a Carmel Safe Haven Baby Box in mid-May. She said the family member says a DNA test has not been done yet the reunification process has started.

Kelsey said the anonymity of these boxes is crucial to this service, and in all cases makes it impossible to figure out who the biological mother is without DNA testing.

No cameras are around these boxes and so, mother or a father places this child inside this box, there is no way for us to know who that parent is, Kelsey said.

The baby boxes are located at fire stations and hospitals around the state. Kelsey said once a baby is placed in the box, they are given medical care and then taken to the states Department of Child Services.

If theyre not going to do a DNA test or a drug test, or vet this family, we know has not happened, Kelsey explained. We have contact with the family. We know this has not happened yet. I have a problem with that. I have to be this little guys voice.

We investigated these claims, and reached out to DCS. The agency said the safe haven law prevents them from discussing a particular case, but they gave us this statement:

A social media post has raised questions regarding the steps the Indiana Department of Child Services takes after a baby is surrendered under theIndiana Safe Havenlaw.

It is common for children to come into DCS care without the identity of one or both parents being immediately known. DCS would never, under any circumstance, send a child home with someone claiming to be their parent without first confirming with certainty that persons relationship to the child. This may include genetic testing, along with many other steps to ensure safe reunification if it is in the best interest of the child. If an individual comes forward claiming parentage, DCS works hand in hand with the juvenile court to determine whether the child was surrendered with the knowing consent of both parents.

Information regarding Safe Haven surrenders is sealed under Indiana law as part of confidential juvenile records, and, with few statutory exceptions, only parties to the case are privy to those details.

Indiana law does not address this specific situation. We know it has captured the attention of State Senator Travis Holdman is aware of this situation and is in communication with DCS.

I was just gobsmacked. I keep saying, 'I can't believe it.' He's got the same build as my Dad, the same arms."

It wasnt the unusually strong DNA match that convinced Ottawas Bob Huson that hed discovered a half-brother living in England.

This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

It was the photo.

The photo was of Malcolm Ives, now 76, who turned up as a half-uncle in a genealogical DNA search done by Bobs son, Geoff, in December 2019. Malcolm, as it turned out, was born in Bournemouth, England in January 1946, months after the end of the Second World War. The seaside town of Bournemouth also happened to be where Bobs father, George Huson, was stationed during the war with the Royal Canadian Air Force.

Winston Churchill famously said the war effort required blood, toil, tears and sweat. George, it seems, did him one better.

I told Dad, even before I knew the specific relationship, that there was a significant DNA hit with a man in the U.K., Geoff said.

Then Geoff said to me, You better take a look at this,' added Bob, 72. That picture Malcolm is the spitting image of my father. It blew my mind and I thought, OK somethings going on here.'

This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Last week, the half-brothers met for the first time when Malcolm landed in Ottawa for a visit delayed two years by COVID-19. Bobs hardly taken his eyes off him since. Gathered together in the Husons Westboro backyard with Geoff and Bobs wife, Diane, the two men clown around like the brothers they are.

My father was my best friend, Bob said. And to see someone 10 years after my father died who looks exactly like my father I was just gobsmacked. I keep saying, I cant believe it. Hes got the same build as my Dad, the same arms. Theyre both muscular guys.

George Huson grew up in Ottawa on LeBreton Flats and enlisted with the RCAF during the war. He never talked much about his war experience, but the family thinks he was a mechanic and flew on Lancaster bombers.

This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

He returned to Ottawa after the war, started a taxi company, worked in computers and eventually had a career with the Department of National Defence. He married Bobs mother, Jean, in 1948 and the couple had two children, Bob and Debra, who now lives in San Francisco.

George died in 2007. Did he know he left a baby behind in England?

Thats the big question, Bob said. Im almost 100 per cent certain he had no idea, no idea he had a child. I talked about it with my sister. I said, Do you think Dad knows? and she said Definitely not.

I dont think hed be able to live with himself if he knew, added Geoff.

For Malcolm, news he had a half-brother in Canada was less of a shock. Described as a healthy, normal little boy with fair hair and blue eyes by the adoption agency, Malcolm was adopted as the only child by an English couple, whom he says were good and loving parents. And yet, he was always curious about his birth mother and father.

This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

My birthday would come around and Id wonder about my mother. Id think, I wonder if shes thinking about me? But it wasnt like that every day or all year long.

Malcolm submitted his DNA for testing about five years ago, not with the purpose of finding his parents, but to know about what part of the planet I came from.

To his surprise, the results showed he had other siblings, a half-brother born in 1936 and a half-sister born in 1940, both from different fathers. Malcolm met his half-sister in England, but his other half-brother died in hospital before they had a chance to meet face to face. He wasnt shocked when Geoff Huson contacted him about more family members in Canada.

I thought, Hello, here we go again,' he said.

This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Malcolms mother, Joan Smith, was 30 when he was born. His adoption record described her as a superior type of woman now working as a hotel waitress. It said she put her baby up for adoption because she had to work to support herself and had no family of her own, something Malcolm now knows from a recent investigation wasnt true.

She did used to come and see me. I was too young. I dont remember. But then she went to London and that was it. She was never heard from again, he said.

She didnt really want any of us. She was troubled. A troubled woman. These things happen. Ive got no regrets. I dont blame her. I dont blame any of them. I got on with my life. Ive had a good life.

Since arriving in Canada, Malcolms spent time at the Husons Quebec cottage, toured the city and on Tuesday paid a visit to George Husons grave at Pinecrest Cemetery. Next week, hes heading to Calgary and Banff and a railway trip through the Rocky Mountains. COVID-19 made it too difficult to visit his half-sister in California, so hell save that for another trip.

The retired chef said meeting his Canadian family has fulfilled a lifelong goal to know where he came from.

Its the icing on the cake for me, Malcolm said. My story is complete.

Long-lost half-brothers reunited in Ottawa after DNA test - Ottawa Citizen

In the past couple of decades, many people have turned to poker as a career.

Almost limitless potential to make money coupled with the free lifestyle has been one of the main reasons behind this phenomenon.

However, while there are dozens of thousands of people playing poker for a living today, its quite clear that a select few have been a lot more successful than others.

Players who manage to turn the game into aprofitable endeavor spend a lot of time learning the ropes.

Most go through many ups and downs beforefinally finding their comfort zone, but some seem to skip this whole processalmost entirely and go from learning the rules straight to winning.

This naturally brings up the question of why.

What is it that makes these players master the game with such ease? Are they somehow naturally predisposed to excel in poker?

Is the game somehow a part of their being, and, more importantly, is poker in your DNA?

If youre a poker fan of any kind, you musthave pondered at least once or twice what it would be like to play the gameprofessionally. Even for the calmest and most rooted of spirits, the idea hassome appeal to it.

But, there is always the big question thatcomes from these thoughts. Do I have what it takes?

First and foremost, poker is a game of numbers.

Youll hear many different opinions on the topic, but the bottom line is that if you dont understand the math behind the game, you wont do well in the long run.

Have you always had a knack for numbers,graphs, and percentages? If yes, there is a good chance you could do well inpoker.

Many of the players who you see on TV and who built their bankrolls from scratch enjoy numbers more than most people can fathom.

Its one thing to understand how percentages work. Reveling in them is a different matter entirely.

If youve read the last few paragraphs shakingyour head, dont worry: Not all is lost. Being crazy about numbers can be agreat asset for a poker player, but its not essential.

That said, if you hate math and dont want tobe anywhere near it, poker probably isnt in your DNA.

One of the things that makes poker a game of skill and strategy is its mathematical aspect. Without it, it would just be another game with cards in which the luckiest person wins.

Another personality trait that could indicate poker might be in your DNA is good instincts.

Now, all of us have instincts, but not everyoneis as confident about them.

If youre someone who has very good instincts and intuition, you probably know it by this point in life. Youll have been in situations where you relied upon them, and they helped you out of some difficult spots.

At the poker table, good instincts can be trulyinvaluable.

As much as the game is about odds and stats, yourarely have the full scope of information to work with. A part of it isguesswork.

Of course, math wizards rely on complex GTO calculations to figure it out, but good instincts can also be very helpful.

So, if youre good at reading people,i.e., figuring out when someone isnt honest with you, youll find that thisskill will be of great use, especially in live games, where people often canthide their emotions or do a very poor job of it.

At the end of the day, poker has a gamblingelement to it in the short run.

Even the best of the best have often been inthe position where they came close to busting their entire bankroll (oractually did), either due to really bad luck, poor bankroll management, or,usually, a combination of both.

But when you listen to them talk about it, youcan almost hear the excitement in their voice. You dont get the feelingtheyre talking about something unpleasant.

This is because people who have poker in theirDNA have a much higher tolerance for risk and dont see this aspect of the gameas tragic.

If youre truly naturally predisposed for thegame, youre going to enjoy every aspect of it in some way even thenot-so-pleasant parts.

Youve probably heard poker players refer to themselves as degens (abbreviation of degenerate gambler, meaning always broke because of gambling).

Now, you might think, in what world can this word have any positive connotation?

The answer is in the poker world.

You dont want to be a degen or reckless,but, at the same time, you kind of do.

Playing poker isnt just about making money.Its about having fun and experiencing everything it has to offer. The good,the bad, and all that comes in between.

You might be reading this and thinking thatsnot right, there are so many great players who dont behave like that.

Youre absolutely right!

This isnt a mandatory personality trait toexcel at the game. There are many great players who observe it purely as abusiness and have had consistent results for decades.

These players have usually built theirbankrolls over long periods of time, and theyre very unlikely to go bust.Their calm, calculated, and systematic approach to the game has served themwell over the years.

Those who made their seven-figure bankrolls in a matter of months are also much likelier to take big risks in the future and bust. Just think about someone like Isildur1.

He could go through seven figures in a matterof hours without blinking.

And when hed bust, hed go back to grindinglower stakes and rebuilding his roll, just to do it all over again.

This isnt what youd call normal behavior, but up until recently, poker hasnt been considered a normal profession, either.

Given the fact that poker is still not thatwidely accepted, to fall in love with the game, you probably have to thinkoutside of the box.

In a society established this way, how do youcome up with the idea of playing cards and shuffling chips for a living?

What happened to good, old-fashioned hard workand ambition?

What most people outside of the poker worlddont understand is that playing poker seriously is hard work. Its not justabout learning to play well.

Its hard to put your best effort every timeyou sit down at the table and to repeat it session after session.

It seems easy to someone looking from theoutside, but its anything but easy, even if poker is in your DNA.

Considering all these things, you have to bethe kind of person who feels comfortable stepping outside traditional socialboundaries.

Unless youre very fortunate, your loved oneswill be at least mildly shocked by the idea you find poker a viable careerchoice.

It takes a special kind of a person to resist all the negativity and stand their ground.

But, if poker is something you truly love and enjoy and if you feel naturally good at it, it wont matter as much.

Its weird, really, but its one of thosethings youll probably know after playing in your first cash game or atournament.

Even with very limited knowledge about exactstrategies, the game will just make sense to you.

You will feel like you belong at a poker tabledespite being surrounded by players much more experienced than you having afeeding frenzy on your stack.

Youll know that there is a way to get betterand return the favor, and youll be eager to learn about the game.

If you find poker boring or not too exciting, you might still become a very good player, but youll never enjoy it as much as someone who cherishes every moment of it in some way, including mandatory bad beats and coolers.

Ive said repeatedly throughout this articlethat you dont have to be naturally talented at poker to succeed in the game.

Like with most things in life, a naturalinclination is a good starting advantage, but it doesnt guarantee you anything.

Having poker in your DNA alone wont make youone of the top players, especially in this day and age.

In fact, it can even be a bad thing sometimes.

Naturally talented players often experience adegree of success at the start of their careers. Combined with some good runs,their talent is enough to make them winners at lower stakes, where thecompetition isnt as fierce.

As they move up the stakes, though, they come across much tougher opponents, and find that talent alone is no longer enough.

Its at this junction where poker players are made or broken.

Players who realize that they need to put theirtalent to good use and apply themselves to studying the game to keep growingwill thrive and go on to achieve success more often than not.

Those arent prepared to put the hours in willeither abandon the game or become the reg fish type that games are formedaround.

Hard work beats talent 99 percent of the time in the long run, and we all know that poker is all about the long run.

The fact that youre reading this articlesuggests that you have some degree of love for the game.

Otherwise, I dont see how youd stumble uponit, let alone get all the way down to these final passages.

If youve recognized yourself in some of the points Ive made here, the odds are that you have at least a bit of poker in your soul.

Whether its just traces or a serious part of your entire genome cant be determined without further testing.

On a more serious note, you shouldnt focus toomuch on this idea.

You dont have to be a genius to be a greatpoker player. If you enjoy the game and dont mind learning about it, yourealready halfway there.

The biggest pitfall you can fall into isthinking youre too good and too talented to take advice from anyone.

If you arent beating the games consistently,it doesnt matter if you have poker in your DNA or not. Its a clear sign youneed to improve and you wont achieve that without putting in serious work.

Take every opportunity you can to study and getbetter, and it wont be long before youre watching all of the talented kidsin the rearview mirror as you move up the stakes!
