Hi - I just joined and I'm a professional writer. I'm doing a Kindle Vella series on genetic genealogy cases and there are so many now! I also wrote 5 forensic science books last year for high school classes and libraries but they aren't published yet and might not be (the publisher changed hands during COVID).

I'm also an empath and the things I learn doing this bother me a lot. But I don't want to ignore crimes because of the families and the suffering and need for justice. So even when something really bothers me I try to separate my feelings and be objective and just document the information.

Anybody that has any ideas about genetic genealogy cases - I am open to suggestions! The Vella series isn't meant for the ones everyone knows about like the Golden State Killer. It's more for lesser known ones. Also I just learned about the Doe Project and will definitely support them. They can identify so many unknown victims with help.

Welcome to Ws AStirling, you have come to the right place!
Some Ws threads that may interest you for starters..

DNA Solves Cold Cases/Parabon Nanolabs & GED/Match.

Othram - General Discussion
 
Some newbies here are interested in cold cases, old missing person cases still active, genealogy as @ASterling etc. (see how I did that with ASterling... I did an " @ " symbol before her/his name and it will notify that s/he was mentioned in a thread.. fyi to newbies also.

One recommendation for newbies, if interested, is to "subscribe" to the breaking news thread here at Websleuths. Sometimes, it allows you to start a case from the beginning, and sometimes, when something breaks/happens in a case or it moves to trial. MOO.

The requirement for that thread is that there is an MSM story AND a link to the current Websleuths discussion page to orient yourself. And if an ongoing case, you can usually get the gist of the case by going to post #1 on the WS thread that is linked in each post to get some background on the case... which for large cases in that post will have a link to another media thread to catch you up on a case.

***BREAKING NEWS!*** *NO DISCUSSION*

Hi,
I am Marie currently living in Florida but grew up on the Boston area. I took a few criminology classes in college and briefly considered law school. However, I became a teacher instead. I am very interested in unsolved cases in Boston.

Honesty keep you clean. :)
 
Hello, I am Heraldm gald to meet you. I believe that you will find a lot of interesting information for you here
 
I found this place looking up stuff on Annabelle Doe. I heard about it on one of the many true crime people on youtube. I probably, am subscribed to you but, i will make sure. Glad to see a nice place to talk about crime. Maybe, we can solve some. I like hearing people's ideas. I got a pm saying people that are victims feel better when people talk about their cases. I never thought about that. Guess, it would be a sort of therapy for some and I hope some day closure on the cold cases. I am in Alabama..I just thought of something..I should see if anything is going on there..i dunno like missing children or something. I check the most wanted stuff every once in awhile too. Ok, i am gonna jump to the forums and stuff yall got soon. I am glad to be here. Man, I thought webslueths was just a nick name Netflix gave true crime youtubers on the movie about the Elisa Lam case awhile back lol. I did not know my interests had a name. Glad to find out bye
 
Hi everyone!!! I am hooked on unsolved mysteries and human behaviours so thought I would join WS and investigate some of the more sinister behaviours being displayed by murderous individuals!!
