From CBC Radio The Current
A forensic technique called genetic genealogy helped police identify the man they now believe killed nine-year-old Christine Jessop in 1984, but some people have concerns about the investigative tool's privacy implications. Host Matt Galloway speaks with Anthony Redgrave, who worked with Toronto police on Jessop's case, and Brenda McPhail, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association.
I'm hoping the success in this case will FINALLY motivate DND to use state of the art genetic genealogy techniques in investigating unidentified human remains.
For me the use of genetic genealogy is a wonderful way to bring questions answered and closure to families who have had the painful process of not knowing what happened to their loved ones. I gladly would allow the police to use my DNA results anytime.
