A DNA expert testified Monday that the odds a genetic profile left at a 2011 crime scene belonged to someone other than Nabil Benhsaien were, in a sample lifted from a hammer, one in 10 quadrillion, and, from the hoodie of a fleeing suspect, one in 110 billion.
Benhsaien is on trial for a dozen charges of aggravated assault and assault with a weapon in hammer attacks on five Ottawa women.
The 38-year-old, who is representing himself, sat quietly Monday as the jury heard about the dry math of it all.
The case, anchored in DNA evidence, is being prosecuted by John Semenoff, who last week called a Good Samaritan to testify about the day in 2011 he chased and then struggled with a fleeing suspect moments after a woman was bashed in the head. Though the suspect got away, Dexter Sullivan, 48, managed to grab the suspect’s hoodie, which yielded key DNA evidence against Benhsaien, the jury heard.
Benhsaien has pleaded not guilty.
The trial continues on Thursday in Courtroom 34 at the Elgin Street Courthouse.
