Episode 120 Ana Barbosa On May 6, 2024, 53 year old Ana Barbosa vanished. She was last known to be with her husband at his auto shop in the Oildale section of Bakersfield, CA. By his own admission, her husband admitted that they had argued at the shop, but then gave varying accounts top people of what happened to his wife. In one version, he called her an Uber.

However, there is no footage of her leaving, and there is no record of any Uber picking Ana up. Ana's daughter, Ana Maria Leal Ochoa, who is our guest in this episode, was surprised and upset to get a call that her mom was missing and it was only at her urging, that Ana Barbosa's husband finally reported her missing.

True Crime
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.
