    Crime Scenario: You are a forensic scientist working for the Department of Justice crime lab in your
    county. There have been four recent murders in town and four murder weapons have been found at
    various locations throughout town. It is unknown if the murders are related. At each murder site, a
    significant amount of blood was left. Part of it is being sent through the National DNA Database for DNA
    testing. However, this is a long process which sometimes renders no results so you have been given the
    task of blood typing.

    construction site. A few feet away blood was found on a nail sticking out
    of a board. It is believed the killer might have injured him/herself on it
    while leaving the scene. Upon testing the blood on the nail, you find it to
    agglutinate with Antibody A serum, agglutinate with Antibody B serum, and
    not agglutinate with Antibody Rh serum.
