 A black "Powerline by Daisy" BB gun and an empty black magazine were recovered from the lower banister of the staircase. The handgun was examined and processed for possible latent fingerprints.

DNA samples recovered from the trigger, trigger guard, grip, hammer and slide of the BB gun were analyzed and compared with a reference sample obtained from Marquez. The analysis concluded that the DNA profile obtained from the trigger was approximately 1 x 10$33$ times more likely if it originated from Marquez than if it originated from an unknown individual.

The sample from the grip, hammer and slide was assumed to derive from two contributors, and was determined to be 4 x 10$31$ times more likely if it originated from Marquez and one unknown individual than if it originated from two unknown individuals.
