New Tool in Solving Cold Cases

If you’ve heard of the “Golden Gate Serial Killer,” then you may already be aware of Forensic Investigative Genetic Geneaology or FIGG. It’s a groundbreaking forensic tool using crime scene DNA to help investigators track genetic relatives and identify suspects and/or unidentified victims. FIGG has helped investigators solve hundreds of cold cases nationwide in the past few years.

The meeting is Saturday, January 18, from 11:15 am – 12:15 pm. It’s Zoom only and free. All are welcome, but registration is required: https://upperhudsonsinc.com/events/
