The Crown is expected to call its final witness on Wednesday in the second-degree murder trial of Dennis Oland.
The court heard on Tuesday from a DNA expert, who said three stains found on the brown sports jacket seized from Oland's home tested positive for blood that matched his father, Richard Oland.

The body of Richard Oland, 69, was discovered lying face down in a pool of blood in his Saint John investment firm office on July 7, 2011, with "hundreds" of blood-spatter stains around him.
Dennis Oland, 47, was the last known person to see his father alive.
The trial, which started on Sept. 16, is scheduled to run until Dec. 18, making it one of the longest criminal trials in New Brunswick history.
