Atlantic City/Foxwoods/Mohegan Sun

By the time I get as far as Arizona, I know too many gun owners, and opt for shooting guns vs craps! At least on the east-coast there's nothing else to do. :) |

| | WannaBe: Anyone know or followed the long unsolved mystery in NorCal that was recently solved? In a rather interesting twist, publicly available DNA database led to the criminal. After DNA from crime scene failed to match anything in law enforcement agencies database, police tried to match it on a publicly open DNA database, a company called GEDmatch. The DNA did not have an exact match, but it did lead police to a relative, then by digging through the trash (if you read between the lines of the police press conference) they were able to collect DNA and match it to the ones collected from crime scene. How about that!? |
