Genetic Genealogy Pioneers

The science of Forensic Genetic Genealogy is quickly moving beyond the novelty phase and becoming an established forensic tool. No new leads or degraded DNA? We solve problems like this every day, as well as cases other agencies have rejected as unsolvable.

Dr. Colleen Fitzpatrick and the Identifinders team have been instrumental in developing the science and art of forensic genetic genealogy. With the Sarah Yarborough Homicide, the first cold case where direct-to-consumer DNA test data was used to generate investigative leads, Identifinders helped to open the door for future forensic use of genetic genealogy.
