    They need to run Glen McCurley's DNA in connection to other cases in areas where he has lived. These guys usually do these things more than once.

    I don’t remember this case, but there’s another cold case from 1974 in Texas. Eighteen year old Cheryl Calloway was brutally stabbed with an ice pick 47 times. This happened on January 30, 1974 in the parking lot of a shopping mall in Arlington, Texas. I hope one day this will be solved. It’s possible the killer is already deceased, but for her family I still hope it is solved.

The bowling alley parking lot was kind of a “lovers lane” back in the day if you catch my drift. The door swung open and a gun was in the boyfriends face. He didn’t see the perpetrator. And I know the guilt he felt for the rest of his life. Rodney heard her screaming to go get her dad. He drove right up to her dads door basically parked in the front lawn after she was taken. I hope Rodney and Carla’s family can finally find some peace.

    Those of us who have been doing genealogy research is the reason this is becoming big. We all knew when from the beginning when companies started testing. We were the first that begin using this as part of our research. Law Enforcement learned had to be taught from those using this technology to find people. It was a game changer. We also knew that it would eventually become a tool widely used in solving cold cases, or foundlings (babies abandoned at birth).
    And it will become standard. Some of y'all should be on pins and needles because you might be the next to get that knock at your door. And you all will be surprised who the real criminals are. These folks have families, jobs, even thought highly of, but are criminals living regular lives next door to you. Oh, and class isn't a factor, nor education. In fact, many have both in their background.

    Is this the case where they actually used a polygraph test on the killer but it said he "passed"? The girl looks familiar but I'm not sure
    Edit: I looked into it and yes it was this case. They apparently tracked him down a month after she was found by his guns magazine that had been left at the crime. Saddest part is, there were numerous murders of young women for years after, all strangled and their bodies found in similar areas. However, he never confessed to those murders but it is believed he committed them. If the cops didn't rely on the polygraph and arrested him then, who knows how many others would be alive. May they rest in peace.

    People don't realize that when you get your DNA run for ancestry that you are put in the system. This is fine if you don't have anything to hide. But, you may have a relative, close or otherwise, who will be in the system from a crime. This is awesome.

    • @SamStone1964

      Ancestry does not allow law enforcement to access their database.

    • @AlM22
      @AlM22 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No, that's sites like GEDMatch where people can voluntarily upload a copy of their DNA profile there (after getting it done on a site like ancestry or 23andme) and opt in to allow it to be used if necessary by police. It gives the option if you want to allow that or not.

    Saw this case on the revival of Forensic Files, called Forensic Files II. The episode was "Last Dance". What a sad case. But I am glad that DNA caught up to the monster that committed the crime, albeit decades later, and unfair in that the perp got to live his life for close to 50 years. Prayers to Carla's brother.

    The act specifies that at least $5M of the allocated $20M goes to forensic DNA analysis.
    The rest can be used for "staffing, training, travel, equipment, or other related overhead expenses."
    When someone is tugging on your heart strings, they are often tugging on your purse strings too.

    • @quokka_11
      @quokka_11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For comparison, a non-profit is considered highly efficient if it reverses that ratio and spends 75% on direct programming and 25% on overhead.
