Looks like a fanny pack / belly bag to me. MOOI want to know what was hanging/pixelated on his leg.

The only benefit to opting in to allowing law enforcement to use your DNA, is that it may help them catch killers.What would be the reasons for why a person would want to opt in to the GED database? Would they have access to additional information beyond what Ancestry and 23 would provide in terms of their DNA results? Just wondering what the motivation would be.
I, too, wonder what his habits were regarding his day off (if that day was his day off work), and how usual it might have been (or not) for him to go hiking or walking in that location - either on his day off, or any other time.I'm assuming his wife knew he volunteered himself as a witness and placed himself very near to the crime scene. This makes me wonder how often he spent his afternoons outdoors or hiking? Otherwise, how did he explain going there, looking similar to the sketch, and sounding like BG. There were a lot of coincidences overlooked if this recent report is factual. Very strange.
So reason is mainly altruistic, glad to know people are making these choices.The only benefit to opting in to allowing law enforcement to use your DNA, is that it may help them catch killers.
I think people saw some of these high profile cases being solved (Golden State started the avalanche), and said "this is my way of helping."
I added mine so that it would help law enforcement if ever needed.What would be the reasons for why a person would want to opt in to the GED database?

Good question. If he went hiking on the trails and bridge every Monday, for example, that would weigh toward a crime of opportunity, imo, rather than a planned attack. I hope we get some info about him!I, too, wonder what his habits were regarding his day off (if that day was his day off work), and how usual it might have been (or not) for him to go hiking or walking in that location - either on his day off, or any other time.
As I understand it 23&Me and Ancestry (and maybe some others) cannot give out their findings without permission. GED Match is a different place where people can upload their genetic profile and can opt in or opt out of having it be available to LE.What would be the reasons for why a person would want to opt in to the GED database?

The regular services also do fun things with the GED, such as telling you how many degrees of separation you have between yourself and King Henry the 8th. And then there are groups who claim they descend from Pocahontas etc and for many it’s just family lore but some want to try to prove it by being a part of a bigger pool than just one service.What would be the reasons for why a person would want to opt in to the GED database?

Could Allen be FSG? Could he have had the flannel shirt on under the blue coat then switched them at some point?
Exactly what I did when I did the Ancestry spit tube test.The only benefit to opting in to allowing law enforcement to use your DNA, is that it may help them catch killers.

Where is this information about RA volunteering himself as a witness coming from? TIAI'm assuming his wife knew he volunteered himself as a witness and placed himself very near to the crime scene.

Exactly. You’re probably already in there through some relative that thought it might be fun. Good for crime solving, pretty amazing stuff. If I was a young adult right now, this would be the field I would want to go into. But it has scary implications.Familial DNA from the last thread: They only need one persons DNA. Then they use their investigative skills to build the family tree from there. Of course more people in the system makes it easier, but not necessary.
IMO, No-- RA is not FSGCould Allen be FSG? Could he have had the flannel shirt on under the blue coat then switched them at some point?
I don't think that GED Match does that type of things, but the main value is that if you've tested with one company (23&Me, Ancestry, etc.) you can upload your profile to GED Match and the matches of people from all of the testing companies who also upload theirs on GED Match are available to you.The regular services also do fun things with the GED, such as telling you how many degrees of separation you have between yourself and King Henry the 8th.
