DNA: ID

Episode 199 DNA ID Replay Holly Cassano
While Jess is on summer break preparing new episodes of DNA ID, we are airing some of our favorite one part episodes weekly in  what we call 'DNA ID Replay' episodes.  In this episode, we explore the case of Holly Cassano which originally aired in episode 17.
In 2009, young single mother Holly Cassano shared a small home with her young daughter Alexis in Mahomet, Illinois. On a night when Alexis was at her grandma's house overnight, someone came into Holly's trailer and stabbed her nearly 60 times. The prime suspect, Holly's ex, was the logical focus of the investigation, but he was ruled out by DNA evidence. The killer had left his blood at the crime scene, but no hits were generated when his profile was entered into CODIS. But it turned out that it should have been. Holly's killer, a man no one suspected, would have been identified years earlier if DNA collection protocols had been followed. Not until he was named by forensic genealogy as a suspect were detectives able to connect him to Holly's murder.

Episode 198 DNA ID Replay Rhonda Chantay Blankinship
While Jess is on summer break preparing new episodes of DNA ID, we are airing some of our favorite one part episodes weekly in  what we call 'DNA ID Replay' episodes.  In this episode, we explore the case of Rhonda Chantay Blankinship which originally aired in episode 10
In 2016, in the small, tight-knit town of Brownwood, Texas, everyone knew Chantay Blankinship. She was a developmentally challenged young woman who loved to walk the streets of the town, listening to music and waving and smiling to everyone. But one night, she disappeared. She was found raped and murdered in a location that pointed to a local offender. Investigators were at a loss until a Parabon Snapshot image of the killer was revealed. And that image generated not only tips, but ultimately, a confession.

Episode 197 DNA ID Replay Christy Mirack
While Jess is on summer break preparing new episodes of DNA ID, we are airing some of our favorite one part episodes weekly in  what we call 'DNA ID Replay' episodes.  In this episode, we explore the case of Christy Mirack which originally aired in episode 3.
In 1992, beloved young teacher Christy Mirack was brutally slain in her own home. Although police investigated thoroughly, and there were some intriguing clues that Christy was targeted, there were no viable suspects, and the case went cold. Then, with the help of Parabon, police discovered the identity of Christy's killer. And his identity was a surprise to everyone. This is one of the first cases in the country to secure a conviction of a killer from decades ago on the basis of DNA traced back to him through forensic genealogy. And it's not over yet. I'll share new information about the killer and the status of his conviction.
