Overview
- Prosecutors accuse Yvonne “Missy” Woods of long‑running misconduct tied to her CBI DNA work dating back to 2008.
- The charges include 52 counts of forgery, 48 counts of attempting to influence a public servant, and one count each of perjury and cybercrime.
- Judge Andrew Poland set a motions hearing for Aug. 27 and a five‑week jury trial starting Sept. 24.
- CBI says more than 1,000 cases may be affected, with remediation estimated at about $11 million and the state allocating more than $7 million.
