Now to the gloves, I don't want to get the family's hopes up on this, but I don't want to give them false hope.

But I also want to say that this is a way to, it definitely is a movement forward in the investigation to find some type of evidence to compare.

So when we're talking DNA evidence, the FBI has the premier, they're the top in conducting analysis, examination,

and with DNA evidence.

And my concern is having it sent to a lab that they have to wait on that.

That's a delay for the family, number one.

Number two is if the FBI does a secondary test on it, what do we do if we get differing, any variations in the results of the test?

A good defense attorney, if you've got any variation between the testing done by a private lab and a testing done by the FBI lab,

A good defense attorney is going to get that thrown out, even if it identifies the suspect.

So that is a concern that I would want to keep in the back of my mind right now.

I'm not sure why the decision was made to send it down to the lab in Florida.

The FBI lab was available.

You could send it right there.

We wouldn't be waiting 24 hours for this validation of the results from the Florida lab before the FBI takes their turn at it.

That would be something that they would do.

That was when I when I first learned of

23andMe and these genealogies services that are provided out there, you're providing your DNA.

And then once you have that information into a database, all the FBI needs is a court order to get access to it.

And again, that opens up other leads.

You still have to follow it up.
