When they return to the States, Dave gives Dr. Jason Kolowski the bones for DNA testing, Seven weeks later, Dave and TJ travel to Washington D.C. to get the results. The samples tested negative for nuclear DNA. He then did a special screening process that tests for mitochondrial DNA, and that test came back positive as human. The tests also confirm that the DNA sequence comes from a person that is Caucasian European. More testing is necessary in order to confirm the bones are in fact Natalee’s and not someone else’s.

John is overwhelmed and believes the Aruban authorities aren’t on their side and are trying to cover up the evidence.
