But now Kyle's lawyer is saying there might be an investigation. So armed with this new information, we reach out to the Toronto Police again. And they give us an official statement. There's nothing about an Accumetrix investigation in their system. What started out as a promising lead goes cold. The authorities don't seem to be that interested in Accumetrix.

But here's a bitter pill. Because the direct-to-consumer prenatal paternity tests Acumetrix sold aren't regulated in Canada, there really aren't many ways to seek accountability. Plus, there's generally a two-year statute of limitation on personal injury cases. From the moment someone realizes the prenatal paternity test named the wrong dad, the legal clock starts ticking to file a claim.

But those two years can pass in a blink in the midst of emotional turmoil. The California mother, Sarah Domenico, she managed to sue Acumetrix, but only because she filed her claim exactly two years, to the day, after her daughter's birth. This is why Codal and her Facebook group reached out to us in the first place. Right now, our investigation is the only way for them to get answers.

For the vast majority of them, including Codal, it's likely too late to sue. It's been four years since Kodal sent her first DNA test samples to Acumetrix. Four years since that first gender reveal party. Kodal was just a teenager then, waiting on prenatal paternity test results from Acumetrix. Today, things are different in Kodal's life.

Standing next to her is the baby's father. And when Harlow sprays him with blue dye, he laughs. This man is helping raise four-year-old Harlow, and their life is pretty settled. But all these years later, Kodal is still simply trying to fix the paperwork.

Like Caudill, John Brennan is still trying to come to terms with what happened to his family. The devastation of finding out he had no biological connection to the baby he'd raised for eight months.
