Judge denies motion fqr Sloan mistrial 2 The Indax-Journal. Gr nwood, S.C.. Mar. 5.1983 Today This 'day Good afternoon. Today is Saturday, March 5, the 64th day of 1983.

However. Habben added that the sample was no good due to decomposition and should not be considered as evidence as far as a blood type is concerned. According to Habben. even though the sample had undergone extensive decom-. position, the tests were conclusive that there was sperm present.

The defense called three witnesses Friday afternoon in an attempt to prove that the sample was good and should be considered in determining the blood type. Defense called Dr. Todd Kolb. of the American Red Cross in Columbia: Brian Wraxall. Serological Research Institute.

Emeryville. and Mark D. Stolorow. Bureau of Scientific Services. Illinois Department of Law Sloan had been tried before in Lexington County.

Judge Baggett called a recess for about IS minutes before announcing his decision. The defense rested its case in the murder trial late Friday afternoon. Defense Attorney Danny Beck called a total of seven witnesses to the stand. Sloan did not take the stand. Final arguments are expected to be presented today with the possibility of the case going to the jury this afternoon.

Sloan. 22. is charged with murder and criminal sexual conduct in the first degree in the I960 death of Mary Elizabeth Royem. 24. of West Columbia.

The defense called three witnesses to the stand Friday afternoon in an attempt to discredit the testimony of SLED forensic serologist By ROGER BURTON StafT writer Judge Julius Baggett denied a defense motion for mistrial this morning in the murder case of Michael Anderson Godwin Sloan. Defense moved for a mistrial after a state witness mentioned the previous trial in which Sloan was convicted in Lexington County. The trial was moved to Greenwood County after the Surpreme Court in December overturned Sloan's conviction. The state called the assistant police chief of West Columbia. Ralph Miller, to the stand this morning to establish when Sloan was charged with the murder of Mary Elizabeth "Molly" Royem.

Under cross-examination by Defense Attorney Danny Beck. Miller mentioned that All three were presented as blood type experts to the court. All three testified that it was their opinion that the sample could be used in determining the blood type of the male donor despite its state of decomposition. Dr. Kolb testified to the jury that he examined a sample of blood taken from Sloan and found Sloan's type to be A 1.

He said that the antigen factor in Sloan's blood would be A H. Kolb said it was his opinion that Sloan could not have been the sperm donor, or the antigen factor in the vaginal aspirate would have been A-H instead of just H. Both Wraxall and Stolorow adherred to the same conclusion. However, testimony further revealed that the victim and Sloan were both sec-retors of A-H antigens, which, meant that both would have A-H antigen factors in their other body fluids. This opened the question of what happened to the A factor in the victim's fluid which was in the vaginal aspirate sample.

None was found in the sample. The experts said the only explanations were that there wasn't any to begin with or there was such a small amount that it didn't show up. All testified that they knew of no scientific reason for the A antigen to be absent from the vaginal aspirate. Stolorow testified under cross-examination that about one-half of his testimony in the courts came in the Forecast Deaths and funerals.

"That means you spend about one-half your time disagreeing with other serolog-isU doesn't it?" asked Myers. "Not necessarily." said Stolorow.

Myers asked stolorow ne was aware of other noted serologists finding samples which gave the same results as the one in question. Stolorow said he was aware of none. Wraxall. a native of England and an ex-employee of Scotland Yard, said it was his opinon the sample was still good because of the presence of sperm in the sample. Wraxall said sperm is very fragile and that an elevated state of decompostion would have destroyed the sperm also.

During Wraxall's testimony, assistant prosecutor Sidney Riggs asked Wraxall just how much the state was paying him. "We charge $70 an hour." said Wraxall. "Is that from the time you got on your plane in California until the time you get off when you return?" asked Riggs. "Yes." said Wraxall. Riggs closed his cross-examination by telling Wraxall that he didn't believe anyone could get on a plane in California and come to South Carolina and talk intelligently about a vaginal aspirate sample he had never seen.

Cambridge Academy Vl: Patsy Habben concerning a vaginal aspirate sample taken from the victim's body. Habben testified Friday morning under cross-examination by Beck that the sample was in an elevated state of decomposition.

According to Habben. laboratory tests proved that sperm was present, but that due to the state of decomposition the blood type of the male donor could not be determined. Habben further testified that an attempt to establish the blood type revealed only an factor of antigen. This is synonymous with type blood. Habben testified that if the sample had been taken under ideal circumstances, and only an factor of antigen was found, then it would mean that the male sperm donor had type blood.
