accused Cardia of fraud after it was claimed that the blood on the monument was actually pig blood.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>The results of the study, which included taking DNA swabs from the Virgin Mary sculpture, were just made public.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>Additional information has surfaced after the initial set of results verified that the blood belonged to a human woman.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>Laboratory examinations have revealed traces of Cardia\u2019s DNA in the blood on the monument, according to the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>But according to her attorney, whether the DNA is single-profile or mixed doesn\u2019t necessarily suggest that the entire situation was a hoax.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>In light of this, she has demanded more research.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>Solange Marchignoli said: \u201cFrom a scientific point of view, the DNA stain deserves further

there, so in this case we would go to trial, but if, as expected, the profile is mixed, it means that the DNA found on the statue also contains Gisella\u2019s DNA, which we expect because she used the statuette, kissed it and handled it.\u201d\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>Marchignoli continued by saying that Cardi is \u201cnot crazy\u201d and that her client \u201cis moved by a deep faith and has

\u201cnon-supernatural,\u201d the DNA findings were released.\n<p><span style='\"font-size:'>In a statement issued in May 2024, the religious organization said on behalf of the bishop of Civita
