I am very sorry for the victims of crimes and of course serious ones like rape and murder and have spent years trying to get the victims relatives in the EAR/ONS case told what I believe to be the truth. In light of what I have said above their must be questions over the continued use of investigative genetic genealogy without the US Public being given what I believe to be all the facts. Here is another case where investigative genetic genealogy has recently been used to identify a possible suspect:

Here is another article about the above case where investigative genetic genealogy has been used to identify a possible suspect in the case:

Officials would only say that the suspect was a black man and that the case has been cleared. However, the Post obtained a petition for the exhumation of the remains of Curtis Edward Blair, which were exhumed to conduct a forensic evaluation, court records show.

The petition indicates witnesses saw a black man running in the area of the crime scene at the time of the homicide. Investigators received information that Blair was employed by Frito-Lay in Salisbury, located two blocks from Trexler’s grandparents’ house.

Here is another report about the case where investigative genetic genealogy was used to identify a deceased man as the suspect in a murder case:

When the DNA from the semen left on Trexler’s body was uploaded to a public genetic database, Parabon genealogists reverse-engineered the suspect’s family tree to determine possible suspects, police said.

Authorities narrowed down the family members to determine their suspect, who was in his 40s at the time of the crime.

The suspect, who was not named, died in 2007, said police.

With a court order, investigators exhumed the suspect’s body and determined that his DNA matched the suspect’s semen from the crime scene.

“Fortunately, DNA science has come a long way since 1984,” North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein said at Tuesday’s news conference, calling it “a powerful tool.”

Here is another report about the developments in the above case:

Laird’s appearance on the syndicated program in April 2018 revived interest in Reesa’s murder.

She told host Dr. Phil McGraw she wanted to prove she had nothing to do with her sister’s murder and the polygraph showed she was being truthful, WSOC-TV reported.

“Thirty-five years is a long time and we’re just as happy as we could possibly be,” Laird said, according to WBTV. “I know that we’ll never get all of the answers that we want, but at least we have the answers that we need.”

Reesa’s mother Vickie Oakes was quoted as saying she was not sure she would ever see the day that the case was closed.

“I just lived with the fact that it was not going to be solved,” she said, according to WBTV. “So many nights laying in the bed wondering and wondering and wondering, and maybe now I can sleep.”

It is my opinion as I have stated about that the Sacramento DA Anne-Marie Schubert has been involved in a number of cases where innocent people have been wrongly accused of crimes including the Golden State Killer case where the actual offender was a man called Ralph Leon Jackson. In my opinion Sacramento LE repeated the same flawed investigative genetic genealogy to wrongly accuse another innocent man of Ralph Leon Jackson's crimes in the NorCal Rapist case and I would not bet on Sacramento LE having arrested another innocent man in another rape series. This to me is a very serious situation and I ask lawyers, concerned politicians and privacy groups to listen to what I say because I believe it is true. As we past Thanksgiving head to Christmas and the New Year innocent people and their families are suffering because of flawed investigative genealogy science. It needs to be said the FBI in my opinion have been aware that Joseph DeAngelo was not the offender and innocent from the day of his arrest and they have been aware that other innocent people have been wrongly accused of crimes they did not commit through the use of this same flawed investigative genetic genealogy:

Less than a month later, the Institute for DNA Justice was born.

The nonprofit has announced a $2 million campaign. Registration papers identify Schubert as its CEO and Ventura County District Attorney Greg Totten as chief financial officer. There is no direct link to FamilyTreeDNA, but inquiries by The Times to the law firm handling the papers were forwarded to FamilyTreeDNA's media relations firm. A spokeswoman for the media firm said its work for FamilyTreeDNA and the nonprofit are separate, though performed by the same people.

Genealogical databases are a goldmine for police | Critics cite few rules, little transparency

As I have said in my opinion the use of investigative genetic genealogy in the Golden State Killer case resulted in a misidentification and an innocent man wrongly being accused of the crimes and the actual offender was a man called Ralph Leon Jackson. The FBI have been aware of who Jackson was since 2010 and are in my opinion aware that he is the most prolific Serial Killer in US history not Samuel Little. The point I am making this has relevance to the campaign by LE to encourage other innocent people to enter into databases for them to use in the same way they used investigative genetic genealogy in the Golden State Killer case. Although I believe there are members of the FBI who are concerned about and do not approve of what I regard as the reckless use of investigative genealogy but as of today as an institution they have still not corrected what I believe to be the mistakes through the use of investigative genealogy. So I again ask concerned groups to investigate it for me with the objective of trying to save the lives of those who I believe have been wrongly accused. Here is some more information about the Institute for DNA Justice which of course uses the identification of Joseph DeAngelo as the Golden State Killer as its 'poster boy case':


MISSION: The Institute for DNA Justice was formed to educate the public about the value of investigative genetic genealogy (IGG) as a revolutionary new tool to identify, arrest, and convict violent criminals, deter violent crime, exonerate the innocent, encourage the 26 million Americans who have taken a DNA test to become genetic witnesses by participating in publicly available family-matching databases working with law enforcement using IGG, and to promote the adoption of industry leading best practices guidelines surrounding its use by law enforcement agencies around the country.


BOARD MEMBERS: Paul Holes, Host, DNA of Murder, Oxygen, Anne Marie Schubert, District Attorney, Sacramento County, Heidi Miller, daughter of murder victim Sherry Black, Jill Spriggs, Past President, American Society of Crime Laboratory Directors, Gregory Totten, District Attorney, Ventura County, Greg Miller, former CEO and current Board Member of the Larry H. Miller Group of Companies which owns the Utah Jazz.

Here is another interesting article about DNA genetic genealogy:

hey’d additionally start to appreciate that many of the human genome—about 98 %—doesn’t truly code for proteins. Within the ’70s, “junk DNA” turned the popularized time period for these nonfunctional sections.Not lengthy after, in 1984, a British geneticist named Alec Jeffreys stumbled upon a use for all that so-called junk DNA: crime-fighting. In these areas of the genome, the DNA molecule tends to duplicate itself, prefer it’s stuttering over the identical phrase again and again. Scientists can seize and rely these stutters, referred to as “quick tandem repeats.” And since the variety of STRs an individual has at numerous places is exclusive to them, they can be utilized to construct a personally identifiable profile, or DNA fingerprint.Genetic Testing GlossaryGenotypingTesting know-how, typically chip-based, that generates a partial record of your distinctive genetic variations.Entire-genome sequencingA methodology used to find out the precise sequence of your whole genome, all 6.four billion letters.Entire-exome sequencingA methodology used to find out the precise sequence of the protein-coding portion of your genome, comprising about 22,000 genes

Here is some interesting information about the way investigative genetic genealogy is evolving and how it was used in this latest case:

DNA submission

CeCe Moore, the chief genealogist with Parabon Labs, joined the news conference via Skype. Moore explained the process by which the lab was able to determine the DNA results.

Moore said the process is called SNP (pronounced “snip”) genotyping, a more advanced technology that had been previously used in law enforcement cases.

Analysts are able to look at a larger portion of the genetic code and, from that, predict distant cousins. Once they have analyzed DNA, they upload the results to a public database called GEDMatch. GEDMatch was used by law enforcement to identify a suspect in the Golden State Killer case in California.

Moore said this is the 88th case in which the Parabon team has helped identify the contributor of DNA from a crime scene.

“This is a revolutionary type of analysis, and once that DNA file is uploaded to GEDMatch it’s compared to the other participants there who have allowed law enforcement to use their profiles for comparison,” Moore said.

The information about the new technology above is interesting and to me as a layman it appears that it may be a way of extending the number of hits from less profiles after the OPT IN policy of GEDMATCH was brought in. Again I have to say it is my opinion that CeCe Moore and ParaBon Labs have actually misidentified innocent people as the offender in many of the cases they have worked on including the case of Mr Talbott in Washington State which in my opinion was a wrongful conviction.

Very serious case and horrible. Here are details of a case in Virginia where LE have asked for the assistance of ParaBon Labs:

Here is a recent article about DNA databases. Again I state in my opinion many innocent people have been wrongly accused of crimes they did not commit when DNA databases have been accessed and investigative genetic genealogy has been used to try and identify a potential suspect in serious crimes:

DNA databases as crime deterrent: As more 'cold cases' are solved, are would-be criminals growing wary? | Genetic Literacy Project

In any crime case and this has always been the way if the wrong offender is identified in a crime and the actual offender is still out there this can lead to more crimes being committed.

Here is another video about investigative genetic genealogy. I have sympathy for victims and their relatives and have tried to get answers for people in cases for some time with no success. However as I have said previously it is my opinion that investigative genetic genealogy was used to misidentify an innocent man as the offender in the Golden State Killer case and the actual offender was a man called Ralph Leon Jackson and there have been other mistakes where ParaBon Labs and others have used investigative genetic genealogy which is scientifically flawed and those using it do not understand these flaws:

Genealogical databases are a goldmine for police | Critics cite few rules, little transparency

Here is a video about investigative genetic genealogy and the decision of a Judge in Florida to give LE access to the whole of the database at GEDMATCH. In my opinion there are some valid points in it but bear in my I think the video is from Russia American TV so funded by the Russians and that is a subject of the moment. There is a point that the use of investigative genetic genealogy and LE access to databases has serious implications for the US Constitution and for that matter other countries as well:

Just want to make another point that at the moment Joseph DeAngelo is still an innocent man yet it is presented as fact he is the offender by a scientific organisation:

In April of 2018, news broke that the elusive Golden State Killer had been identified through a new technique called genetic genealogy (or investigative genealogy). In just 4 ½ months, Paul Holes and his team (including genealogist Barbara Rae-Venter) put a name to the man who had terrorized California for years.

In this interview, Paul and Barbara discuss working on the case together, how genetic genealogy has helped solve other cold cases and what they foresee for the future, how their lives have changed since news broke of their involvement, and what’s next for them.

The fact that investigative genetic genealogy is embraced so readily by a scientific magazine and organisation to me shows how dangerous the situation is especially in the light of what I believe was the wrongful conviction of Mr Talbott in Washington State where the FBI were and are aware there was no legitimate DNA hit in this case. This sets a very dangerous precedent so I again ask concerned people and organisations to help me as best they can as I can only do so much. Thanks.

Just want to make the point Barbara Rae-Venter states in the above video she has solved twenty other cases and thus may be true but in my view she did not identify the correct offender in the Golden State Killer case who was Ralph Leon Jackson so nice as lady as she may appear in my view these other cases will need to be checked in light of what I have said about the Golden State Killer case.
