All they need to do is DNA testing and they can find out. Take blood samples from mother, father and child. Its a simple thing.

Not if the people who surrendered are not the people on the tape.

Irish Travelers are all related to each other because of inner marriages of the clan.

I really don't think it's that simple. DNA testing can prove someone is NOT the parent of a child, but as far as I know it can't prove conclusively that someone IS the parent. With the notorious inbreeding of this clan, a substitute child would almost certainly be a close cousin, with a great deal of common ancestry with the right child (ist cousins on both sides, or something like that).

That will tell them if they are all related, not who they are, or whether they are the ones in the tape.
