Wait a minute. How did the cops find out about her DNA?
Uh, just curious, does ancestry.com or 23&me commonly/routinely share ‘DNA’ submissions with LEO? Not that I have anything to hide.

Probably had a clause for “law enforcement purposes” in the multi-page Terms and Conditions that everybody just clicks through.
“Not that I have anything to hide.”
Hmmm...🧐🤨...perhaps you have been overenthusiastic in sharing? Lol
And who thought to look for a dead baby in a pit toilet?
They share DNA data with other subscribers and genealogy websites. Usually the subscriber is a person looking to discover blood relatives and fill in missing pieces on their family tree. But many Law Enforcement agencies also subscribe, to help solve cold cases.
Sometimes it helps ID a victim and bring peace to families who have had a loved one disappear. Sometimes it solves a crime.
I always look for rats and snakes when I use one. Also a vacuum truck worker emptying one would probably find the body.

How much other DNA might be in there? Any DNA contamnation?
According to FamilyTreeDNA, they will work with law enforcement to match DNA.
There are periodic news stories of perps discovered hiding in waist deep sewage below the womens’ toilets, trying to peep at them going to the bathroom. Probably what happened there, and the smelly perp made an anonymous call later about the dead baby he found.
Apparently, if we get our DNA tested, it goes into a national database. Also, tests like cologuard test dna, and some doctors are doing dna tests. I know a guy whose pain mgmt doctor checked his dna. (Probably at the behest of the federal government, since they now call the shots on what pain meds can be prescribed).
The article said they got the DNA from inside the femur.
Kara, now 42, (~born in 1982) would have been 15 YO in 97 when the baby was found. She didn’t notice her mom was pregnant, or was mom not in the picture?
Thanks for the toilet info! I assumed a “pit toilet” was just a deep hole in the ground and, once it reached a particular level, it would be capped and a new hole would be pressed into service. But yes, if it was pumped a baby would definitely clog up the works!
I had my doubts about getting my DNA test.
But my older brother and several cousins had already done their’s so it was a moot point. It doesn’t matter at that point, the police already have my DNA.

Sure.
And if not already, China will get it to create bioweapons - if our CIA hasn’t already
Now, that's what I call dedication to their cause. /S
We are reminded once again that there’s no accounting for taste . . .
