			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span id="more-352"></span>
Never underestimate the power of tobacco products to implicate you in crimes. I think the Discovery Channel is having a special on this soon.
<blockquote>Stilwell Police Detective Chad Smith said he was investigating the September burglary of a local insurance company when he noticed a tobacco stain on a pile of papers in the ransacked office.

"None of the ladies that worked there chewed tobacco," Smith said. "You could tell that the stains were from the suspect."

Smith said he took a sample of the spit and sent it to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation for testing. He soon spoke with detectives in Tahlequah, who already were looking at Shoopman as a possible suspect in a string of burglaries.

Tahlequah Detective Jeff Haney obtained a warrant to get a DNA sample from Shoopman, which linked him to several burglaries in which the suspect left behind tobacco spit, Robertson said.</blockquote>]]></content:encoded>
