This is the latest case to identify a suspect through the use of investigative genetic genealogy:

Genealogy DNA Identifies Donald Perea As Suspect In 1981 Murder Of Jeannie Moore

Found Deceased - CO - Jeannie Moore, 18, Jefferson Cty, 25 Aug.1981 *Suspect named in 2019, died in 2012*

Another one solved after almost 50 years. Not sure yet if DNA was involved yet. If nothing else, this new technology is spurring LE on into digging up and solving these old cases.

They may have been checking old rape kits. I read (where?) that thousands of rape kits are still waiting to be processed. If GS was convicted in another case, his DNA would be in the databases.

Similar cases where there were victims with bicycles could be Amber Hagerman and Mikelle Biggs.
I hope their DNA gets rechecked against him.

Here is another report about the arrest in the Florida Serial Killer case in relation to the use of investigative genetic genealogy:

Serial killer in Daytona Beach: Suspect Robert Tyrone Hayes arrested today - CBS News

Here is part of the above article and it appears ballistic evidence as well as genetic genealogy has been used:

Police in Florida have arrested a former criminal justice student they suspect to be a serial killer, linked to the murders of at least four women across the state spanning a decade. The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office has charged Robert Tyrone Hayes with the murder of 32-year-old Rachel Elizabeth Bey, whose battered body was found off a Jupiter highway in 2016. Police in Daytona Beach, nearly 200 miles north, said Hayes, 37, is also linked by DNA or ballistic evidence to the shooting deaths of three other women in 2005 and 2006.

Here is another part of the article:

Investigators used genetic genealogy, an emerging and controversial method that compares unknown suspect DNA profiles with genetic information available on genealogy databases, to identify Hayes as a suspect, authorities said.

"I can't be more happy today that we got this killer off the streets so nobody else can become a victim," Daytona Beach police chief Craig Capri said at a press conference Monday.


Here is another report that makes reference to genetic genealogy and the Golden State Killer case:

Suspected serial killer arrested after 14 years: 'We're pretty sure he would've killed again' | MyCentralOregon.com

Here is part of the above report which references genetic genealogy and CeCe Moore and ParaBon Labs:
Though they had DNA matches, the suspect’s name was not known. That’s when investigators used genetic genealogy, which led to Sunday’s arrest of Hayes, authorities said.

Genetic genealogy compares unknown DNA evidence to public genetic databases to identify suspects through their family members — and has been called a “game-changer” in the effort to crack cold cases.

Since the arrest of the suspected “Golden State Killer” in April 2018, at least 70 suspects have been identified through the technology, according to CeCe Moore, the chief genealogist at Parabon NanoLabs, which investigated the Bey murder among others.

Governor Ron DeSantis Commends Florida’s Genetic Genealogy Team Efforts Leading to Arrest of Suspected Serial Killer Robert Tyrone Hayes

The Governor of Florida states he is in favour of the continued use of this genetic genealogy:
“I commend FDLE’s Genetic Genealogy Team for their efforts to support law enforcement investigations to get this suspected serial killer off the streets and out of our communities,” said Governor DeSantis. “The Florida Department of Law Enforcement is a national leader in using the power of genetic genealogy to solve cases and deliver justice to victims and their families. We will continue to support and grow this program, which is helping law enforcement solve cold case homicides and sexual assaults.”

Again I would like to say to any civil liberty groups, wrongful conviction organizations and defence lawyers who may read my posts I am convinced there have been misidentifications using genetic genealogy which give false DNA hits they do not exist and would ask them to look into this. Thank you to Websleuths and the FBI for my right to free speech.

I appreciate this is a strongly held belief of yours, but you always decline to give a scientific explanation for this.

I've looked through lots of your posts (as you claim to have explained your views previously) and I honestly can't find anything.

Forensic genealogy is an investigative tool using autosomal DNA to find potential suspects for further investigation.

Potential suspects are then checked out with an STR DNA test. This is your DNA 'fingerprint'.

There is no way the fact forensic genealogy has been used can effect the outcome of a DNA 'fingerprint' test.

They're two separate things.

I enjoy reading your posts but on this we will have to beg to differ and I feel a moral obligation to have made my last post. I am not a scientist and not a FBI Agent so do not have access to any database. I have clearly stated that Ralph Leon Jackson from Virginia was the Golden State Killer or EAR/ONS when he in the military in the 1970s and he was when he was arrested and he still is now almost a decade after his arrest in 2010. It is not my responsibility or within my capabilities to identify him due to what I have said previously in my post. Hence is Ralph Jackson is the Golden State Killer that man held for his crimes is not and therefore I know the science behind genetic genealogy is flawed in some cases. I suspect it is something to do with a semen sample being used to create a profile where saliva is normally used and also if you put DNA through too many hoops it gives to a funny answer. It is the responsibility of the FBI to deal with these issues. As I say I enjoy yours and others posts but I think it is best not to discuss this any further but as I say it is my moral and ethical obligation to speak out if I feel innocent men's lives and those of their families are at stake and am no longer looking for a debate as it is not productive and leads to falling outs. Once again thank you.

Genealogy DNA Identifies Donald Perea As Suspect In 1981 Murder Of Jeannie Moore

Found Deceased - CO - Jeannie Moore, 18, Jefferson Cty, 25 Aug.1981 *Suspect named in 2019, died in 2012*

Detectives are amazed by how quickly they were able to solve the cold case using the genealogy website.

They now have plans to send DNA from other cold cases to genetic genealogy databases in the hopes of finding a match.

Alberti told The Denver Channel: 'I was blown away at how fast it went. How quick from start to finish. And that's mind-boggling when you think about a case that's been sitting here for 38 years, and literally in weeks we were able to put closure to it.' bbm

This is interesting. Here is a report about a UK case where facial recognition technology is being used in a similar way to DNA phenotyping has been in the US this time to try and identify a yet as unknown murder victim:
