Comparing decades-old crime scene DNA to profiles on genealogy websites led investigators to a relative of the suspected Golden State Killer and from them, to the suspect himself.
The Golden State Killer is suspected of committing 51 rapes and 12 murders in California between 1974 and 1986. The team found him by comparing DNA collected at a crime scene to genetic profiles on genealogy websites.
They find a partial DNA match of a relative, which eventually led the investigators to DeAngelo.
DeAngelo had lived in areas that matched the locations of the crimes, and when the investigators compared DNA collected from discarded item with the crime scene DNA, they found a match. You cant hide.
