About this episode
Give it up for forensic genealogists, Fam!!! We're getting into the science today, but also getting into all the feels as the DNA Doe Project brings answers to a cold case from the 1980s. When these investigators start looking into a pair of unidentified remains from coroner Scott McCord's office, they not only connect them to a serial killer but also find and bring peace to relatives who lost track of their loved ones decades ago.
