The whole advent of genealogical dna is amazing. I followed the ERA/ONS/GSK case for decades. The fact they were able to finally solve that, and would’ve only solved it using genealogical dna, still amazes me. And once they started doing stuff like identifying septic tank Sam etc I was just like “they’re gonna solve almost everything now”.

Just look up Joseph James DAngelo. He was the Visalia ransacker, east area rapist, original night stalker and the golden state killer. He was basically the first major case solved through genetic genealogy and there was a lot of talk they’d be able to crack zodiac the same way when this came about but alas. That case is another can of worms
