I wonder how many formerly cocky homicidal maniacs have been getting a little nervous lately about leaving DNA in public. Because of the genealogy relational tracing, the rate of solving old cold cases are just going to increase.

It’s why I did literally all of the DNA ancestry tests.
I’ve got a few cousins that have to be guilty of something, I want to help finger them.
There have been numerous cases of rape and murder where the defendant would wash down the victims with bleach or acid. Many were burned alive by the defendant, thinking that this would erase the murderers’ DNA from the scene.
Not much different that when the difference in punishment between robbery and murder became minimal. Just kill everyone and set fire to the place.
I do not expect that anyone with a murderous heart to stop at anything to keep them off death row.
