I will never go to ancestry or any of those DNA home kits to find out about my ancestry.
Who knows maybe it will pop up in some police investigation an incorrectly point to me as a killer then I have to prove that I’m not.

And if I get moeller I’ll have to prove that I didn’t kill anyone and that I’m not guilty but of course they can’t prove I’m Not Innocent either

Never do those kits,they are so generally anyway.Our Granddaughter kept saying I can’t believe I have Jewish.I kept posting my Grandmom was Jewish and my Irish Grandfather married her during the war.Finally she got it.Mom Mom was 1/4 Jewish.

All I know is - if I had confidence that Bob Mueller clearly did not sexually molest preteen children, I would have said that.

That's the fascinating thing about this genetic methodology. It doesn't matter if you never have your DNA analyzed or recorded, as long as some not-too-distant relative gets their DNA recorded. The police look for a general familial partial match that could include parents, children, cousins, uncles, etc. Once they find that, they then examine that small pool of potential suspects and quickly weed out most of them for one reason or another. Then they can conduct a standard forensic investigation of the remaining possibilities, and try to get direct DNA samples (as happened in this instance). When they get a 100% DNA match from one suspect, they've nailed the perpetrator.

The criminals in these decades-old cold cases could not have possibly imagined back then that some future forensic development of a totally unknown and unforeseeable nature would someday catch up with them. So let that be a lesson to all of you: Even if you're absolutely sure you've committed the perfect crime, you may not have.
