In this episode we look into the haunting case of eight-year-old Kelly Ann Prosser, who was kidnapped, raped, and murdered nearly 40 years ago. Thanks to advancements in DNA testing, police have finally solved the case, leading to a significant breakthrough in the investigation. We discuss the vital evidence collected from various locations, including Kelly's school, and hear from a woman who played a crucial role in bringing closure to this tragic story. The episode also highlights the use of genealogy databases like GEDmatch, which have become instrumental in solving cold cases and connecting law enforcement with potential suspects. Join us as we explore the power of modern forensic science and its impact on justice.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa was a safe place to raise a family in 1979. People trusted their neighbors, left their doors unlocked, and kids played outside until the streetlights came on. But all of that would change on December 19th, 1979 when 18-year-old Michelle Martinko was brutally stabbed to death. For 39 years the case would remain unsolved until genetic genealogy helped solve the mystery of who killed Michelle. Was it the scorned ex-boyfriend or a random stranger? Listen to her story now!

Our dive into the court documents continues in this episode as we begin our look at the new IGG (genealogy) order to hit the docket.Genealogy is increasingly used in investigations, particularly in the realm of criminal and forensic work. Here's a comprehensive summary of how genealogy is applied in such contexts:Crime Solving: Genealogy is employed to solve cold cases, unidentified remains, and unsolved crimes by identifying potential suspects or victims. Investigators use genealogical research to establish familial connections and track down individuals who may be linked to a crime.DNA Testing: DNA extracted from crime scene evidence is compared to genetic databases, like GEDmatch or law enforcement databases, to find possible matches or relatives. This genetic genealogy technique is commonly used in cases involving sexual assault, homicides, and missing persons.Building Family Trees: Genealogists and investigators construct extensive family trees of potential suspects or victims. They use available records, like birth and marriage certificates, obituaries, and historical documents, to piece together family histories.Reverse Genealogy: Instead of tracing a person's ancestors, reverse genealogy is employed to identify living descendants and their connections to a person of interest. This technique is especially useful in identifying unknown victims.Privacy Concerns: The use of genealogy in investigations has raised privacy concerns. As DNA data and family histories are often collected without individuals' explicit consent, the ethical and legal implications of this practice are under scrutiny.Case Resolutions: Genealogical investigations have led to the resolution of numerous high-profile cases, including the identification and capture of serial killers and the closure of decades-old mysteries. Notable examples include the Golden State Killer case and the identification of the "Buckskin Girl."Collaboration: Law enforcement agencies often collaborate with genealogy companies and experts who specialize in forensic genealogy to harness their expertise and databases.Legislation and Regulation: The use of genealogy in investigations has prompted the creation of legislation and regulations to address privacy and data security issues. Various jurisdictions have implemented laws governing the use of genetic databases in criminal investigations.(commercial at 9:01)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:102523-Order-Addressing-IGG-DNA.pdf (amazonaws.com)

In episode 76, I revisit a case I previously discussed with Brandie from Evaporate the Missing. Missing in Maine, three stories - Attiin Shaw, Stefanie Damron, Erik Foote and the town of Washburn's involvement of a tragic outcome that did not have to be. This episode examines the circumstances surrounding each case and questions that continue to linger. Advances in DNA and investigative genetic genealogy is changing how we look at crime. Ancestry, 23andMe, FamilyTreeDNA, and GEDmatch have become instrumental in solving long-gone-cold cases. I revisit the case of Attiin Shaw, missing from a small Maine town since September 2021. Her family cannot get any information about their missing daughter and sister. Her children have to face life without her, and her husband hasn't offered any insight into her disappearance. Special thanks to Kara. Attiin Rachmawati Shaw: Please share any information about missing Washburn, Maine woman with Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit - North, 1 Darcie Dr. Houlton, Maine 04730.

In this episode, we explore the relentless pursuit of the Golden State Killer, a case that spanned decades and haunted California. Writer Michelle McNamara brought new attention to the terrifying case, dubbing him “The Golden State Killer” and amassing thousands of files in her personal investigation. Her book I'll Be Gone in the Dark intensified the public's fascination, paving the way for breakthroughs. We dive into how genetic genealogy, via GEDmatch, led to the unmasking of Joseph James DeAngelo, a former police officer with a chilling double life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crimecast--4106013/support.
In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole and Diana discuss using DNA segment data in a research project. Diana shares her experience working on a chromosome map in DNA Painter for several years, gradually adding matches identified as descending from one of her ancestral couples. She focuses on her Cline DNA research project, where she seeks genetic evidence to confirm her hypothesis that John C. Cline is the father of Clemsy (Cline) Weatherford. Diana details her process of identifying a Cline network on Ancestry DNA and using GEDmatch's segment search and triangulation tools to find shared segments and potential connections. Through her research, Diana discovered a shared DNA segment on chromosome 22 with a match named Jane, who also descends from Clemsy Cline. This breakthrough allowed her to identify the segment as originating from the Cline/Weatherford line and paint it on her DNA Painter chromosome map. By triangulating the data, she found additional DNA matches sharing the segment, opening up new avenues for exploration and potential confirmation of her hypothesis about Clemsy's parentage. Listeners will learn valuable tips for using DNA segment data and GEDmatch tools in their own research projects. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.

Halloween may be behind us in the US but here at The Future of Everything we're not quite done with spooky season. If you're pairing your trick-or-treat haul with some scary movies, we invite you to revisit with us a conversation Russ had with Lawrence Wein a couple years ago about the work he's doing in forensic genetic genealogy to crack cold cases. Professor Wein shares how he's using math to catch criminals through traces of their DNA. It's both haunting and hopeful, and we hope you'll take another listen.Have a question for Russ? Send it our way in writing or via voice memo, and it might be featured on an upcoming episode. Please introduce yourself, let us know where you're listening from, and share your quest.

They use available records, like birth and marriage certificates, obituaries, and historical documents, to piece together family histories.Reverse Genealogy: Instead of tracing a person's ancestors, reverse genealogy is employed to identify living descendants and their connections to a person of interest. This technique is especially useful in identifying unknown victims.Privacy Concerns: The use of genealogy in investigations has raised privacy concerns. As DNA data and family histories are often collected without individuals' explicit consent, the ethical and legal implications of this practice are under scrutiny.Case Resolutions: Genealogical investigations have led to the resolution of numerous high-profile cases, including the identification and capture of serial killers and the closure of decades-old mysteries. Notable examples include the Golden State Killer case and the identification of the "Buckskin Girl."Collaboration: Law enforcement agencies often collaborate with genealogy companies and experts who specialize in forensic genealogy to harness their expertise and databases.Legislation and Regulation: The use of genealogy in investigations has prompted the creation of legislation and regulations to address privacy and data security issues. Various jurisdictions have implemented laws governing the use of genetic databases in criminal investigations.(commercial at 9:08)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:102523-Order-Addressing-IGG-DNA.pdf (amazonaws.com)

David and Robert Bintz, brothers from Green Bay, Wisconsin, were exonerated in September 2024 after spending nearly 25 years in prison for the 1987 murder of Sandra Lison. Lison, a 44-year-old mother of two, was working as a bartender at Good Times in Green Bay when she disappeared. Her body was discovered shortly after in the Machickanee Forest, 30 miles away, having been strangled. Authorities also found evidence of sexual assault. Despite no physical evidence connecting the brothers to the crime, David Bintz became a suspect after allegedly arguing with Lison over a bar tab on the night she vanished. The case remained unsolved for over a decade until, in 1998, David, who was already serving time for another crime, was implicated by a cellmate who claimed David had confessed to the murder in his sleep. In 2000, both brothers were convicted of robbing and killing Lison and sentenced to life in prison. The conviction, however, rested on circumstantial evidence, as no physical proof tied them to the scene of the crime. The turning point in the case came nearly two decades later when the Great North Innocence Project, based in Minnesota, took an interest in the brothers' situation. After years of legal battles, the organization enlisted the help of the Investigate Genetic Genealogy Center (IGG) at Ramapo College in New Jersey. Through genetic genealogy, investigators were able to create a DNA profile from the evidence found at the crime scene. After running the profile through consumer databases like GEDmatch, the IGG narrowed the DNA match down to three brothers, one of whom was William Hendricks, a convicted rapist who had died in 2000. The case took a significant step forward when authorities exhumed Hendricks' remains in April 2024. A DNA comparison revealed there was a one in 329 trillion chance that anyone other than Hendricks was responsible for the crime. In light of this conclusive evidence, a Wisconsin judge vacated the brothers' convictions on September 27, 2024, officially setting them free after decades of wrongful imprisonment. “Today, Sandra Lison will rest in peace, because her true murderer is now known,” said Judge Donald Zuidmulder in court. “It is therefore my bounded duty to exercise and follow the law, well satisfied that I will sign judgments vacating the convictions for both of these defendants and set them free.” The ruling brought an end to a decades-long fight for justice, though questions remain about how the brothers were convicted in the first place without concrete physical evidence. District Attorney David Lasee, responding to concerns about the initial investigation, said, “The prosecutors and the law enforcement officers were handling this case at the outset, followed the evidence that they had at that time, and that conviction was sound.” The exoneration of David and Robert Bintz is one of the many recent cases where DNA evidence and advances in genetic genealogy have cleared individuals who were wrongfully convicted. The case also underscores the significant role that innocence projects play in reviewing and challenging old convictions. As the Bintz brothers begin to rebuild their lives, the true perpetrator, William Hendricks, will forever be linked to the brutal killing of Sandra Lison, offering a sense of resolution for her family. However, the long road to justice highlights the flaws in a system that allowed two men to spend nearly half their lives behind bars for a crime they did not commit.

Our dive into the court documents continues in this episode as we begin our look at the new IGG (genealogy) order to hit the docket.Genealogy is increasingly used in investigations, particularly in the realm of criminal and forensic work. Here's a comprehensive summary of how genealogy is applied in such contexts:Crime Solving: Genealogy is employed to solve cold cases, unidentified remains, and unsolved crimes by identifying potential suspects or victims. Investigators use genealogical research to establish familial connections and track down individuals who may be linked to a crime.DNA Testing: DNA extracted from crime scene evidence is compared to genetic databases, like GEDmatch or law enforcement databases, to find possible matches or relatives. This genetic genealogy technique is commonly used in cases involving sexual assault, homicides, and missing persons.Building Family Trees: Genealogists and investigators construct extensive family trees of potential suspects or victims. They use available records, like birth and marriage certificates, obituaries, and historical documents, to piece together family histories.Reverse Genealogy: Instead of tracing a person's ancestors, reverse genealogy is employed to identify living descendants and their connections to a person of interest. This technique is especially useful in identifying unknown victims.Privacy Concerns: The use of genealogy in investigations has raised privacy concerns. As DNA data and family histories are often collected without individuals' explicit consent, the ethical and legal implications of this practice are under scrutiny.Case Resolutions: Genealogical investigations have led to the resolution of numerous high-profile cases, including the identification and capture of serial killers and the closure of decades-old mysteries. Notable examples include the Golden State Killer case and the identification of the "Buckskin Girl."Collaboration: Law enforcement agencies often collaborate with genealogy companies and experts who specialize in forensic genealogy to harness their expertise and databases.Legislation and Regulation: The use of genealogy in investigations has prompted the creation of legislation and regulations to address privacy and data security issues. Various jurisdictions have implemented laws governing the use of genetic databases in criminal investigations.(commercial at 11:14)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:102523-Order-Addressing-IGG-DNA.pdf (amazonaws.com)

Our dive into the court documents continues in this episode as we begin our look at the new IGG (genealogy) order to hit the docket.Genealogy is increasingly used in investigations, particularly in the realm of criminal and forensic work. Here's a comprehensive summary of how genealogy is applied in such contexts:Crime Solving: Genealogy is employed to solve cold cases, unidentified remains, and unsolved crimes by identifying potential suspects or victims. Investigators use genealogical research to establish familial connections and track down individuals who may be linked to a crime.DNA Testing: DNA extracted from crime scene evidence is compared to genetic databases, like GEDmatch or law enforcement databases, to find possible matches or relatives. This genetic genealogy technique is commonly used in cases involving sexual assault, homicides, and missing persons.Building Family Trees: Genealogists and investigators construct extensive family trees of potential suspects or victims. They use available records, like birth and marriage certificates, obituaries, and historical documents, to piece together family histories.Reverse Genealogy: Instead of tracing a person's ancestors, reverse genealogy is employed to identify living descendants and their connections to a person of interest. This technique is especially useful in identifying unknown victims.Privacy Concerns: The use of genealogy in investigations has raised privacy concerns. As DNA data and family histories are often collected without individuals' explicit consent, the ethical and legal implications of this practice are under scrutiny.Case Resolutions: Genealogical investigations have led to the resolution of numerous high-profile cases, including the identification and capture of serial killers and the closure of decades-old mysteries.

Our dive into the court documents continues in this episode as we begin our look at the new IGG (genealogy) order to hit the docket.Genealogy is increasingly used in investigations, particularly in the realm of criminal and forensic work. Here's a comprehensive summary of how genealogy is applied in such contexts:Crime Solving: Genealogy is employed to solve cold cases, unidentified remains, and unsolved crimes by identifying potential suspects or victims. Investigators use genealogical research to establish familial connections and track down individuals who may be linked to a crime.DNA Testing: DNA extracted from crime scene evidence is compared to genetic databases, like GEDmatch or law enforcement databases, to find possible matches or relatives. This genetic genealogy technique is commonly used in cases involving sexual assault, homicides, and missing persons.Building Family Trees: Genealogists and investigators construct extensive family trees of potential suspects or victims. They use available records, like birth and marriage certificates, obituaries, and historical documents, to piece together family histories.Reverse Genealogy: Instead of tracing a person's ancestors, reverse genealogy is employed to identify living descendants and their connections to a person of interest. This technique is especially useful in identifying unknown victims.Privacy Concerns: The use of genealogy in investigations has raised privacy concerns. As DNA data and family histories are often collected without individuals' explicit consent, the ethical and legal implications of this practice are under scrutiny.Case Resolutions: Genealogical investigations have led to the resolution of numerous high-profile cases, including the identification and capture of serial killers and the closure of decades-old mysteries. Notable examples include the Golden State Killer case and the identification of the "Buckskin Girl."Collaboration: Law enforcement agencies often collaborate with genealogy companies and experts who specialize in forensic genealogy to harness their expertise and databases.Legislation and Regulation: The use of genealogy in investigations has prompted the creation of legislation and regulations to address privacy and data security issues. Various jurisdictions have implemented laws governing the use of genetic databases in criminal investigations.(commercial at 10:55)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:102523-Order-Addressing-IGG-DNA.pdf (amazonaws.com)This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

In a recent episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast, Tony Brueski delved deep into the ongoing case of Brian Kohberger. The discussion, featuring Defense Attorney Bob Motta of "Defense Diaries," shed light on the complexities surrounding the use of new DNA evidence techniques in court. At the heart of the matter lies the speedy trial wave, which seems to have been used by Anne Taylor, defense attorney for Kohberger, to buy more time for a closer examination of evidence. One point of contention is the availability of certain evidence, particularly data and research related to IgG, which the state argues is not subject to Rule 17 and is therefore non-discoverable. "Everything that we've been hearing about with the IgG and all that data and the research that she wants, and the state is, you know, claiming, look, it doesn't fall under Rule 17 and we don't have to give it to you," Brueski mentioned. According to Motta, if Taylor files a motion to suppress based on the IgG information, it is likely to be denied due to the third-party nature of the information source. He explains that traditionally, DNA profiles submitted either to public databases or private ones, such as Ancestry or 23andMe, have required a legal warrant for law enforcement access. However, some people opt to upload their profiles to databases like GEDMatch, which law enforcement can access without a warrant. Motta points out that this new realm of forensic science presents a unique challenge as the courts grapple with its implications. He said, "This is so brand new that it hasn't been vetted yet." The issue is rooted in the sharing of the Y STR DNA strand, which can be common to every male in a family lineage. Motta elaborated, "Because of the fact that you share that same Y STR DNA strand with everybody in your familial line, all the way to males in your family line to your great-great-great grandfather... the argument is, do does a defendant who they're not searching him... have standing to say, okay, you needed a warrant to get into that database, searching for essentially my DNA." He emphasizes the unparalleled nature of this technology, drawing a distinction between voluntarily shared data, such as text messages, and the involuntarily shared genetic markers of distant relatives. "There is nothing voluntary about your distant relatives sharing your DNA. That's just a fact," he affirmed. There's no doubt that this DNA technology presents law enforcement with a potent tool. But as Motta highlights, while there's immense potential for good, there are also questions about civil rights and liberties. The crux of the matter is the need for a warrant to access such data. This is not about discontinuing its use, but ensuring that it's accessed lawfully. "Use it, but you have to get a warrant just like you do for anything else," he noted. As the debate continues, Motta doesn't seem optimistic about Taylor's chances with her motion to suppress based on current legal interpretations. "He'll lose it. But that's how you get to the appellate court," he stated. Already, states like Maryland have legislated on this issue, but any law is open to interpretation and litigation. As Motta poignantly summed it up, "The whole thing is about interpretation. You have the state interpreting it one way and you have the defense interpreting another way. And then you leave it to a judge to decide." It remains to be seen how the courts will navigate this new terrain, but one thing is clear: the landscape of forensic science and the law is undergoing a transformation, one case at a time.
