Physical Evidence
Gasket from the tool drawer, later identified to Derks as a pressure-cooker gasket; remarked from 1095 to 1192
Derks placed the gasket in the same drawer as wire strippers, hobby fuse, wire, and tape. He learned its identification as a pressure-cooker gasket the week before his testimony.
About
Derks described the gasket's collection with other tools and components for possible device-related examination, but supplied no laboratory match or finding that it had been used to make a bomb.
