Thank you to our connection at CrimeCon, Evergreen Execs, FilmRise, and Nancy Grace for making this week's show happen. BLOODLINE DETECTIVES explores the power of genealogy and the latest forensic technology used by law enforcement to bring justice to unsolved homicides and sex crimes. The series uses Familial DNA taken from the crime scene and DNA that people have submitted to genealogy sites to see if there is someone who is a close match. From there, genealogists can figure out who the suspect should be, and police can then make an arrest. Host Nancy Grace guides viewers through each episode's case along with expert interviewers, dramatic reconstructions, and archival footage. —FilmRise Follow Nancy Grace via Social Media Instagram: @theNancyGrace Twitter: @NancyGrace Facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

Familial DNA. It's been called the single greatest advancement in criminal investigation since fingerprint analysis. Right now there are 100,000 cold case homicides and 650,000 cold case sexual assaults in the United States with suspect DNA samples in evidence. Familial DNA is being used to identify the suspects and solve these cases everyday, but at what cost? As law enforcement taps into commercial DNA databases, mining for partial DNA matches belonging to relatives of unidentified suspects, privacy rights and ethics become blurred. On this weeks' episode, Bill Bodner and The Chief discuss this emerging technique, where the guardrails should be and where likely overreaches have already occurred. Do the ends justify the means? Watch this episode and give us your thoughts!

Familial searching is currently banned in Canada. The Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs recently decided to continue this ban after a series of debates. Guest: Wendy Gillis, Crime Reporter for the Toronto Star Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In the intricate puzzle of the Bryan Kohberger murder case, DNA evidence emerges as a critical component. But what makes this evidence so pivotal, and how might it influence the upcoming trial? Former Federal Prosecutor Neama Rahmani sheds light on these pressing questions in a recent episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast with Tony Brueski.    The focus of their discussion was the submission of Investigative Genetic Genealogy (IGG) evidence by Idaho prosecutors, a move that has sparked much debate. This evidence, instrumental in linking Kohberger to the crime scene, raises profound questions about privacy, legal procedure, and the power of modern forensic science.    Rahmani highlights the potential controversy surrounding IGG evidence. This tool, while potent in generating leads, treads a fine line regarding privacy. Familial DNA can inadvertently drag innocent family members into the limelight, sparking concerns among privacy advocates and civil libertarians. However, its efficacy in cases like the Golden State Killer demonstrates its undeniable value in criminal investigations.    The conversation then turned to the complex legal implications of this evidence. "You know, someone was compelled to provide DNA for some reason, and because of that individual they may have waived their Fourth Amendment rights," Rahmani explains, emphasizing the constitutional concerns at play. The key legal issue revolves around the proper channels through which this DNA was obtained and the subsequent implications for Kohberger's trial.    The state of Idaho's decision to include this DNA evidence in discovery, despite not using it for warrants, points to a broader strategy. As Rahmani notes, "I don't like it when [prosecutions] hold things back because you're creating a potential unnecessary appellate issue." This approach suggests a careful legal maneuvering by the prosecution to avoid future complications.    The crux of the matter lies in the DNA found on the knife sheath at the crime scene. This evidence, when combined with cell tower data and video surveillance, forms a triad of evidence against Kohberger. Rahmani argues that this DNA, linked to Kohberger through a cheek swab, significantly strengthens the prosecution's case, despite defense claims of other uninvestigated DNA at the crime scene.    Looking beyond DNA, Rahmani and Brueski delve into the potential impact of Kohberger's phone records and online activity. The former prosecutor anticipates that these records, including Instagram direct messages and disturbing online posts, could unveil a deeper insight into Kohberger's motives and actions. This behavioral evidence could prove crucial in painting a comprehensive picture for the jury.    As the conversation concludes, Rahmani reflects on the broader implications of the case, noting the challenges and opportunities presented by modern forensic science. The use of IGG evidence, while controversial, exemplifies the evolving landscape of criminal investigation and the delicate balance between privacy rights and the pursuit of justice.    As the trial approaches, one question lingers: How will the intricate web of DNA evidence, combined with behavioral insights, shape the fate of Bryan Kohberger? The answer, buried within the complex layers of legal and scientific scrutiny, awaits revelation in the courtroom. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The saga of the "Long Island Serial Killer," an enigma that has engrossed the public and confounded investigators for over a decade, might be nearing its end. Manhattan architect Rex Heuermann is now in custody, facing charges concerning the gruesome Gilgo Beach murders. However, the journey to this critical turning point was long and arduous, demonstrating the tenacity required to solve cold cases and the innovative methods investigators must deploy.   The use of familial DNA, a technique that has grown in prominence over the past few years, was pivotal in advancing this investigation. Familial DNA testing involves comparing the DNA profile of an unknown suspect left at a crime scene with profiles in databases to find potential relatives, thus narrowing down the suspect list.    Retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindfer, who has years of experience in cracking cold cases, has recently emphasized the importance of this technique. "Familial DNA testing is a remarkable tool that can breathe new life into cold cases," Coffindfer stated.     However, the use of this method is not without its challenges. It requires exhaustive resources and considerable time, considering the vastness of the data that needs to be processed. Privacy concerns also surface as DNA databases often contain information from individuals not involved in any criminal activity. Balancing law enforcement's need to solve crimes and individuals' right to privacy is a delicate act that still requires comprehensive legal and ethical guidelines.   In the Long Island Serial Killer case, investigators had to meticulously collect and analyze the DNA evidence associated with the crime scenes. They had to trace back familial connections, carefully navigating the vast and complex web of genetic information. It was a painstaking process, but the potential payoff was immense: identifying a suspect in a series of crimes that had remained unsolved for over ten years.   The arrest of Rex Heuermann may be a testament to the power of familial DNA testing that Coffindfer alluded to. Though it took over a decade to identify a suspect, the steadfast dedication of the investigators and the advanced technology at their disposal have potentially brought a measure of closure to a community haunted by uncertainty.    While it's essential to remember that Heuermann is a suspect and that his guilt or innocence is a matter for the courts to decide, there's no denying that the development, in this case, has shone a spotlight on the critical role that familial DNA testing can play in modern investigative work. As we continue to advance in genetic science and refine its use within law enforcement, it will be interesting to see how many more cold cases can be revisited and possibly solved.    The decade-long pursuit of the Long Island Serial Killer underscores the perseverance of law enforcement and the invaluable contribution of scientific advancements like familial DNA. It serves as a beacon of hope for countless other cold cases, proving that with time, dedication, and the right tools, no case is ever truly forgotten. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts AD-FREE?

#131 - In 2018, a spree killer shot and killed six people in Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona. The victims included a famous forensic psychiatrist, two paralegals, a counselor, and an elderly couple inside their home. Over 96 hours, the residents of Scottsdale were terrified that they would be next. It wasn't until the police received a tip that turned their investigation upside. But even with a promising lead, detectives weren't sure they had enough evidence to make an arrest.Support My WorkIf you love the show, the easiest way to show your support is by leaving us a positive rating with a review.

Detective Steve Smith of the Toronto Police Services Cold Case Unit led the solving of the 36-year old cold case of Christine Jessop, age 9, who disappeared after school on October 3, 1984. A local man was originally convicted of first-degree murder, but DNA evidence later cleared him of any involvement and the case went cold again. After attending a two-week training course where the techniques used to catch the Golden State Killer were taught, Detective Smith quickly came up to speed on the intricacies of Familial DNA and Genetic Genealogy to eventually identify Christine's killer - a killer who had been hiding in plain sight.

On April 3, 1981, a farmer found a body in a field in Delmar, New York. Forensics at the time determined it was a male, but his identity remained a mystery to investigators.  Four decades later, it became the Capital Region's first ever unidentified persons case solved using familial DNA and genetic genealogy. On this episode of "The Eagle," Pete DeMola and Jessica Marshall take a deep dive into a case full of twists and turns, mysteries and technology, and the quest to find a lost soul.

January 30th: Karen Klass Attacked (1976) Familial DNA has solved some pretty big cases. But what about the small ones, the ones not everyone knows about but deserve their moments in the spotlight. On January 30th 1976 a woman was attacked in her home and her case would become almost instantly cold. It would take 40 years, and familial DNA, to finally see the ending she, and her family, deserved.  https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/murder-righteous-brothers-singer-s-ex-wife-karen-klaas-solved-n714716, https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-karen-klaas-righteous-brothers-cold-case-murder-20170130-story.html, https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/true-crime/wp/2017/01/30/police-use-dna-to-solve-1976-murder-of-karen-klaas-ex-wife-of-righteous-brothers-singer/, https://abcnews.go.com/US/authorities-id-alleged-killer-karen-klaas-wife-righteous/story?id=45151211, https://truecrimedaily.com/2017/05/05/detectives-crack-cold-case-murder-of-karen-klaas/, https://people.com/crime/karen-klaas-righteous-brothers-killer-identified/, https://kfor.com/news/killer-idd-in-1976-murder-of-karen-klaas-ex-wife-of-righteous-brothers-singer-authorities/, https://www.cbsnews.com/news/righteous-brothers-singer-bill-medley-ex-wife-karen-klaas-dna-yields-long-awaited-answers-in-1976-slaying/, https://scipol.duke.edu/news/murder-%E2%80%98righteous-brothers%E2%80%99-singer%E2%80%99s-ex-wife-karen-klaas-solved-40-years-later

26 years is a long time to wait for answers in an unsolved homicide, but in 2019 the family of 20-year old Sophie Sergie finally had a glimmer of hope that closure was possible. Familial DNA evidence led cold case investigators from Alaska all the way to Auburn, Maine and to the doorstep of the man now charged with the murder of Sophie Sergie.  The trial of Steven H. Downs began in January 2022 and continues as we speak. If you haven't tuned into part I of Sophie Sergie's story, please pause here and turn back one episode, because in this episode, you'll hear about the evidence, the admitted mistakes, and the list of alternative suspects that the defense says will change your mind about who committed this violent crime.  At the end of it all, we all just want one thing – Justice for Sophie Sergie and peace for her family.  Sources are listed at darkdowneast.com.

Familial DNA data from popular mail-order kits such as 23andMe and ancestry.com is helping investigators thaw years-old cold cases, but lawyers are not so sure about their validity. Such is the case of suspected murderer (and recently arrested) Steven Downs and the brutal murder of Sophie Sergie in Alaska in 1993. Whatever happened to Michael Madden? The fun-loving innocent young man mysteriously disappeared while on a camping trip in Northern California in 1996, and his disappearance remains unsolved to this day. Did a strange passerby in the woods kill him, is he still alive living elsewhere under a different name, or is this a tragic suicide without a body? Unfortunately, we may never know...
