Corp., 798 F.Supp.2d 1291, 1297-98 (M.D.Ala.2011) (decisionmaker’s statement that he was going to replace employee with a “younger Korean” was direct evidence of discrimination).

D: holding that direct evidence of defendants dna found at the scene was direct evidence merely of a circumstance that suggested his participation in the burglary and theft but was not direct evidence of his participation in the burglary
