Introduction to Genetic Genealogy in Criminal Investigations
Genetic genealogy has emerged as a groundbreaking tool in forensic science, bridging the gap between traditional DNA analysis and genealogical research. By leveraging ancestry DNA databases, law enforcement agencies can identify suspects and victims in cases that have remained unsolved for decades. This innovative approach combines DNA profiling with extensive family tree research, offering new avenues for solving cold cases.
The Landmark Case of the Golden State Killer
One of the most notable successes of genetic genealogy is the identification of the Golden State Killer. In 2018, investigators used DNA from crime scenes and compared it to profiles in public genealogy databases, leading to the arrest of Joseph James DeAngelo.
