We all hear stories almost daily now about cold cases being solved by investigative genetic genealogy. This new crime-solving tool answers the "who" question about these often decades-old crimes... but what about the why? This podcast will look at crimes solved by genetic genealogy, and examine the connection - if any - between the victim and the killer, and why the crime occurred. Each case is unique, and has its own story behind the headline. Join us for DNA: ID. New episodes will come out every other week on Mondays.

    Doe ID Mary McLeod Davidson Moffatt

    Episode 210 Doe ID Mary McLeod Davidson Moffatt In 1995, a violently murdered Jane Doe who came to be known as the Danforth Lady was found under a building excavation at the old Robertson Motors in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.  TPS efforts to identify her went nowhere, even when they finally obtained DNA, which was degraded and heavily contaminated due to the age of the remains.  Earlier this year, a final attempt to extract precious genetic material paid off, and Danforth Lady was identified as Mary McLeod Davidson Moffatt.  TPS Det. Const. Mike Kelly was able to reconstruct Mary’s story, and to identify a prime suspect in her murder. The answers were shocking, but also meant justice at long last for Mary.

    The Four Sexual Assault Survivors of Unknown John Doe Offender

    Episode 209 The Four Sexual Assault Survivors of Unknown John Doe Offender *This episode carries a trigger warning*  In 2001, an 84 year old woman was raped in her home in Manchester, CT.  In 2004, another Manchester woman was raped. In 2007, another.  In 2008, a fourth woman from the neighboring town of Vernon was victimized.  A recognizable pattern emerged, and investigators knew they had a serial rapist on their hands.  But they didn’t know who he was. A John Doe warrant provided probable cause for arrest, but 10 years elapsed before IGG gave a name to John Doe. And the identity of the suspect would shock the community to its core.

    Introducing The Consult: Real FBI Profilers — The Tylenol Murders

    Introducing The Consult: Real FBI Profilers — The Tylenol Murders   In the fall of 1982, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Extra-Strength Tylenol capsules that had been deliberately laced with cyanide. The poisonings triggered a nationwide panic, an enormous investigation, and changes to product packaging that are still with us today. More than four decades later, no one has ever been charged with the murders.In this episode of The Consult: Real FBI Profilers, retired FBI profiler Julia Cowley is joined by her former FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit colleagues Angela Sercer, Susan Kossler Drew, and Bob Drew to examine the Tylenol Murders from a behavioral perspective. Who was the offender targeting? What can the method of poisoning tell us about motive, planning, and risk? And what does the behavior suggest about the person responsible?Head over now to The Consult: Real FBI Profilers wherever you listen to podcasts to hear the complete episode and the rest of the series.
