When homicide detectives called Jackie Vadurro at the end of January, claiming to have matched her 23andMe DNA test kit to a 36-year-old cold case murder, she thought they were joking. But, no — the cops were dead serious.

Vadurro, a content creator who lives in an RV around Palm Springs, CA., went on to reveal that the detective said her DNA was a possible match to a 1986 cold case murder of a Jane Doe who’d been fatally shot and thrown off onto the side of a rural San Diego road.

“And now they think that I might be her family member because of my DNA that I uploaded on 23andMe,” she shrieked.

Probably related to the murderer.
One of those issues I have mixed feelings about.
This sort of DNA database research has succeeded in catching some barbaric murderers.
But it is also a new way for the government to keep us under control.
Yep
I’m sure the government would never make a mistake and accuse the wrong person of murder.
No, she is related to the victim.
Never mind my earlier comment. Headline is kind of sensationalist. She’s distantly related to the unidentified victim.
Cops are trying to find out who the victim was.
Yeah, I saw that later.
Nope...related to the missing/dead.
I took a DNA test and found out I have twin sisters from one of my father’s extramarital endeavors.
Did you ever meet her? Is your father still alive?
It is bad policy to have your DNA sent to any private company. I have to think that it will eventually hurt DNA companies like 23 and me in the long run.
“safe and effective”...
“Vadurro went on to explain that police had determined she was either a second or third cousin of their victim.”
Typically such matches are to relations you’ve never met. Distant cousins.
the crazy is very strong with that female.
I think I met her once at slab city?

I took a DNA test and found out I’m part West African (Sierra Leone and Liberia)! We are mostly French Canadian, English and Irish. Does that mean I get partial reparations? (rolling eyes)
What will?
There is a clause in the contract that they own your DNA.
Eventually you’ll be forced. people have been arrested (wrongfully) been fingerprinted had their DNA took and was later released. Do you really think they erased their DNA from their files? If it helps TPTB to keep us under control, they be working that angle.
