Golden State Killer: How DNA Solved a 40-Year Mystery

[@williamappleby1901]

Amazing outcome with his arrests. Unfortunately the person that really deserves credit to finding this killer had her spotlight taken away and she is now dead from unfortunate tragic circumstance. RIP all😢

This is absolutely amazing i am astonished what we can do nowdays 😮 just think about it they can solve every cold case and all of the families can have their peace❤❤

[@jakech7]

That guy is taking all the credit for capturing this killer. Were it not for crime writer, Michelle McNamara, keeping a spotlight on the case, it would not have been solved. Sadly she died without being suitably recognised.

[@Mr20gormenghast]

I like how he acted all demented when he was arrested (and in court), right after returning from the supermarket and with a meal on the stove.

[@jasminafuehrer]

They should track Zodiac,(is it Zodiac that is not been found until today?)

[@Nathan_Coley]

Correct The Zodiac is still not found.

[@Lordsdotter]

I don't think they have his DNA.

[@Nathan_Coley]

@@Lordsdotter I thought they did but I could be wrong

Stupid loud music so hard to listen to what is being said .

[@amysnews6808]

Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but in the Chanel matter, they're not using touch DNA for these types of identification I don't think. I was under the impression these were cases that have full on DNA samples (such as $emen, blood, saliva, etc.) and fairly significant amounts of it. That amount and type of DNA is NOT getting transferred because you "sat on the same bench". I'm not saying this couldn't lead to false arrests but I don't think the likelihood is as high as they're making it out to be.

[@johnofmalta]

You’re right in your impression. It was $emen at multiple crime scenes. Multiple samples with multiple jurisdictions, originally. So the likelihood of contamination is near zero. Throw in his timeline and location not excluding him from the crimes and the whole “Bonnie” thing and the shape and size of his pee pee, you got a “yeah it’s him.”

[@Nathan_Coley]

Yes it was way more than just "touch DNA".

[@amysnews6808]

@@johnofmalta I'm not super familiar with the case so IDK what the "Bonnie" thing is, I'll have to look into that, but from what I did know I thought it seemed a bit far fetched to insinuate this man was framed because he "rode the same bus as the killer". Thanks for confirming!

[@amysnews6808]

​@@johnofmalta I looked further into it and yea, definitely seems he is guilty but I couldn't find anything about anyone named Bonnie or anything much about the things you mentioned besides just there being a significant amount of DNA and that he confessed. Can you tell me where to find more information or fill me in? TIA!

[@johnofmalta]

@@amysnews6808”Bonnie” was his fiancée. He was cursing her at multiple grape scenes. He broke into over 100 homes and grape at least 50 women before he started killing people. He was truly scary.

[@curtistillman4898]

I am amazed with the use and technology of DNA to bring to closure cold cases. It is rather interesting that law enforcement is not equally enthusiastic and in support of using DNA with the history of Americas wrongful prosecutions, incarceration, and death row executions.

[@thesaintst1851]

The worst serial killer of all time.. gave me the chills

[@Lordsdotter]

I can think of even worse ones.

[@GrumpyYank26]

There are plenty of more prolific killers... look it up

It’s stunning how DNA analysis can be used. I just proved my landlord a liar for $252. canadian dollars. Plus postage.

Wow✌️

[@jesusortiz8499]

You totally deviated from the original story.

[@GrumpyYank26]

the 'original' story has been covered thoroughly - what they have done is investigate the IMPLICATIONS of this technology and how it has continued to evolve SINCE GSK. . If all you want is GSK, then you can find that elsewhere.

If u have nothing to hide then why not I think if u have been incarcerated once u should have to submit

Narrator: "Political Dissidents"? Me: You mean people YOU disagree with? Just because they don't BOW to your political whims doesn't mean they are wrong about it. Using DNA definitely needs guardrails.
