A Michigan forensics scientist is being investigated after she admitted to using state equipment in order to search her husband’s underwear for another woman’s DNA. Ann Chamberlain-Gordon admitted during a March 7th divorce hearing that she used expired chemicals during her free time to conduct the tests, and that the results confirmed the presence of another woman’s DNA on her husband’s clothing.

The Michigan State Police expect to have a decision whether or not disciplinary action will be taken. So far Chamberlain-Gordon has not had any of her regular duties restricted.
