WILKES-BARRE -- Prosecutors called the last of their witnesses, including a DNA forensic analyst who testified blood found in the Jeep Grand Cherokee owned by Anthony Cangiano was consistent with that of Martha and Nicholas Caputo, who were brutally beaten in a home invasion in Hazleton last November.
Deputy District Attorney David Pedri and Assistant District Attorney Albert Yacoub also called Hazleton police detective Gino Fedullo to the stand, as well as a state police corporal who testified he found blood in Cangiano's vehicle.
