Investigators from the FBI linked a New Jersey attorney to a series of violent rapes in Boston after tracking down his relative's DNA on a commercial genealogy database.
Matthew Nilo, 35, was arrested last week on suspicion of raping three women and sexually assaulting a fourth in 2007 and 2008.
Police took samples from the three women who were raped in Terminal Street, in Boston, at the time of the incidents and processed the glove of a fourth victim who poked her assailant in the eye while wearing the garment.
All three matched the same profile, leading officers to believe that the same man committed each of the assaults.
The FBI confirmed 15 years later that the DNA belonged to Nilo after comparing the samples to one from a glass he drank from at a corporate event, but there were multiple hurdles they had to first overcome.
Officers kept the case open, using the Sexual Assault Kit Initiative - a federal program designed to help process a backlog of rape kits – to reinvestigate the incidents.
Boston Police Department doesn't have a backlog of rape kits but has instead used the initiative and a $2.5million federal grant to re-examine 'unsolved cases that present the greatest threat to public safety.'
Cops requested the DNA be cross-referenced by the FBI using 'forensic investigative genetic genealogy' in October last year.
Officers from the BPD submitted the DNA samples obtained from the three women to GEDMatch and Family Tree DNA, two of the only genealogy websites which allow law enforcement access to their databases.

I wonder what he did to piss off the Democrat machine?
But the FBI won’t lift a finger (excuse the pun) to identify the Washington DC pipe bomber.
Am I alone in trusting absolutely NOTHING from the gestapo FBI? Let it sink in. They can fabricate any evidence they want, plant it, and eliminate enemies of the democrat party. They lie about everything all the time.

Those ancestry DNA sites have help nabbed quite a few people lately.
Some, and they've also made identifications of long-unknown victims possible, bringing some closure to families of the missing.
