I think with NamUs the DNA samples have to be compared manually, it's not automatic. The national CODIS system is more automatic, but there can be separate local / state / national "levels" that are not compared with each other, resulting in some samples getting "stuck" at a local level and never compared to other sampes at a more national level - a sample has to be "promoted" to national level before it can be compared to others at that level (I think that's how it works, CODIS is very complex and confusing).
From a few exchanges I've had with NamUs folks, it's up to the case manager to decide whether ruled-out names get put into profiles. Some profiles have dozens or hundreds of ruled-out names. Peaches no doubt has had loads of suggestions and ruled-outs that haven't been put up
Maybe the identity of the babys mother would generate a new lead.But LE wont allow the ME to release her DNA to NAMUS. Why? Do they know who she is? Would her identity lead to an obvious suspect?the friggin' cops need to throw the public a bone or two to generate some new leads... it's absurd.
I think they did. The issue is the babys mother. The DTs wont sign off on it. Theres no logical reason for it.Dee Dee, has LE released the baby's dna or asian man's dna to NAMUS?
Or egg on their faces.Maybe the identity of the babys mother would generate a new lead.But LE wont allow the ME to release her DNA to NAMUS. Why? Do they know who she is? Would her identity lead to an obvious suspect?

What happened to these threads? They have disappeared from the UID forum and that link tells me I don't have permission to access them.
I'm having the same problem. They definitely were working a day or two ago.
