That brings up an excellent question. The thing is, since that wasn't Alison in the grave, even with the yellow top and Alison wrist band, Bethany may never have even worn the anklet. Did Ali leave the anklet behind with Mona before going on the run? If not, then A had to have taken it off Ali before her mom buried her...which is so serial killer.

If Charles is her brother, then yes there would have been a partial match to the DNA and that partial match could be explained away as a deteriorating sample. Of course this was Rosewood's Police Department we're talking about here, so they only had Detective NotACrook Wilden running around trying to secure a blood sample from Hanna alone. He or any other cop could have secured all of the girl's DNA from any discarded coffee cup around town or done the whole voluntary DNA swab to rule you out as a person of interest route and discovered it wasn't any of them. But in all honesty, the writers have forgotten all about the anklet and the blood evidence and it is but one a thousand things that will never be addressed on the show again.
