The glove was a bust I assume

Yes that’s what I’m seeing - the glove is a bust and next step is to determine if there’s any dna that could identify family members who might know who the perp is.

Also, how could someone have been in her home for 30 minutes, presumably handling Nancy, and not left any DNA?

It is not in CODIS is what I have read. Not sure why they are not running it through 23andme (yes, I know they are bankrupt) or something like them.

So many people with zero understanding gave their DNA to them. I would bet a connection could be made.

You don't understand private DNA kits at all. It's you that does not have an understanding. 23 and me would have nothing to do with this search. Or any other DNA company.

Law enforcement can set up fake accounts on the ancestry sites and find relatives that way, then they investigate the family tree and see if they can find a suspect.

23 n Me has nothing to do with random DNA checks. You all are living in ignorance. No, police cannot just send DNA through a private"database"- it does not ever work that way. Your medical records with your blood lab and dr's office has already been hacked numerous times. But no one is finding criminals in Ancestry or 23 n Me or any of the private companies.
They run it through public databases to make a match with some very extended relative and work back from there with public records. The perp doesn't even need to have had any DNA test done. It takes a very short time to narrow down a person from one hit.

Here's what none of you get- you don't have to have ever taken a test at all. If any of your extended relatives has DNA on any site, public or private, you do too. Game is over. Your DNA is already out there, and anyone can locate anyone connected from one hit distant hit. It would take me maybe an hour to figure out who you are. Maybe less.

No one said they had anything to do with random DNA checks. The police has historically had to get a warrant but now 23andme is claiming "privacy" issues (much like apple has) and they don't want to give it. But it's not about privacy... As someone noted earlier, it's about optics for business. Sleazy.

Again, no. Police use public DNA databases. If they need more, as an example a private DNA company, yes, they would need warrant, but that is no different than getting a warrant of any doctor or blood/ tissue lab to do the same thing. That's how they got the BTK killer-his daughter's pap smear that they got a warrant to get. Your DNA is everywhere. It's not more in peril by using a DNA kit. Your privacy isn't upheld because you didn't get your DNA tested, it's still out there. My advice- don't commit crimes.

It’s not principles - it’s a sales tactic. People might be deterred from submitting their dna samples if they knew that the company would use it for these things. Not that a criminal would ever submit their dna to begin with.

Relatives do. That's how they found the BTK killer..

I think you mean the Golden State Killer, who was found b/c of relatives in GEDMatch, which is one of the databases that has granted law enforcement access.

Both were found through partial DNA matches.

Actually, the BTK killer was found by the police obtaining a warrant to get his daughter's pap smear, from her college medical facility. Now initially, there was probably a search on GED Match, which is public.
A warrant can be obtained for anything. No one has to worry about their private DNA kits because, in the end, your DNA is obtainable by anything- your dr, blood drawn sites, surgery tissue, anything.

All anyone needs is a sliver of DNA match- public records and social media provide the rest.

You really think so? Basically he thinks internet sleuths are making a mess and re victimizing the family.

The family is not the victim. Nancy is the victim. This sheriff may be overlooking the suspects by absolving family as potential suspects

+1 the sheriff is a bumbling idiot. Can’t trust a word he says.

DNA worked in those cases because they had direct evidence at the scene.

This glove was found 2 miles away and tested because it looked similar not that it was absolutely the one worn by the perpetrator.

The glove could be from anyone. It could be related to the case or not. It could be a gardeners glove or fallen off a truck . No one knows because it wasn’t found at the scene.

How has there been no reporting on the suspect's vehicle? This guy didn't get away with Nancy on a bicycle.
