A lot of childhood memories.

So we collected her DNA, which she gave along with her mom.

And I guess there was really no intent other than to, I guess, kind of have it because Jeff was eliminated.

She had explained that she does the genealogy as well.

And the FBI agent had reached out to Heather to turn the feature on where law enforcement can view your profile.

So she turned on her profile and it was like the Christmas tree lit up.

Yes.

So the FBI agent said, we are very close in the family, but it's not Jeff Thiel.

Nobody had ever heard of Tony Hayes in the case file.

So we started looking into, you know, where does Tony Hayes live?

Who is he?

And realized that he lives less than two miles from the original crime scene.

Just unbelievable.

He's been there his entire life, and he's...

A nobody.

Hiding in plain sight.

Correct.

So we spent several weeks following Tony, and it was the same thing almost every day.

He went to work at the foundry, and he went home, and he worked around the farm.

Let's write him a warning for no front plates and have him touch a brand new pen, and then we'll send the pen down to see if he's a match.
