I’ve read elsewhere this was a manual rape—still leaves DNA inside but not necc. semen.
Manual rape? I’m not familiar with that term and a meaning fitting those criteria (DNA but not semen) isn’t obvious. I can only assume that ‘manual’ refers to, well, the last part of it. I wouldn’t have expected that kind of rape if murder was going to be on the cards and I would also expect semen around somewhere, showing up with luminol. So perhaps something else is meant.
Are you sure semen was found? I’ve read elsewhere this was a manual rape—still leaves DNA inside but not necc. semen.
Nope, not sure offhand.

One meaning of ‘manual’ is ‘of or relating to the hands’. I’m guessing that’s what’s meant here.
