And it's opened up a lot more cases for us to work.
I was able to help identify the killer of a kindergartner.
using rootless hair and also another murder that hasn't been announced yet.
And so I've been able to use just a single hair thanks to Dr. Ed Green's amazing technology.
He's, you know, their lab is the one that is processing that and creating that profile for me to use.
So without these brilliant scientists, we wouldn't be able to even do what I do.
No, and that's why I was opining early on.
I just couldn't imagine him not leaving DNA behind because it's such a violent crime scene.
He stabbed four people multiple times, and the chances of either the knife not slipping and cutting him or one of those victims fighting back and potentially getting his DNA under their fingernails...
Or just dropping a single hair seems highly unlikely to me.
So I guess, you know, time will tell.
But I think it's something that people need to think about.
If you are considering perpetrating this type of intimate, violent crime, you will leave DNA behind.
no matter how hard you try.
I mean, Brian was clearly educated about this, and yet he still left his DNA behind.
Now, I will say people are talking about how smart he was.
I don't think he was the sharpest tool in the shed.
It does not sound like he planned this out nearly as well as we would expect from a PhD student in criminology.
But, you know, it's just virtually impossible not to leave your DNA behind in this type of frenzied, very intimate, violent attack.
So I've been a member of that group from early days.
