A Melbourne court heard that blood tests could not definitively determine parentage in a high profile case. Dr Proderick Grantly Morgan said tests might solve about nine of ten cases, but comprehensive grouping was unlikely to provide conclusive evidence. The trial, involving Alberta Gwen Morrison and Joanie Jentina Knox, focused on whether a baby born at Kyneton District Hospital was the Morrison couple’s child. The hearing adjourned pending further examination.
