FoxNews just had a forensic pathologist on who said from a hair strand (without the root) they can obtain the mother's DNA, while with the root, they can detect both the mother's and father's DNA.

Isn't her hair dyed?
Doesn't that make a difference?

Yes, I saw that. I stand corrected. I didn't remember that the mother's DNA can be matched from hair shafts. The sad thing is, this might be the only part of Natalie Hollowell that is ever recovered.
