DNA: ID

Author: AbJack Entertainment

We all hear stories almost daily now about cold cases being solved by investigative genetic genealogy. This new crime-solving tool answers the "who" question about these often decades-old crimes... but what about the why? This podcast will look at crimes solved by genetic genealogy, and examine the connection - if any - between the victim and the killer, and why the crime occurred. Each case is unique, and has its own story behind the headline. Join us for DNA: ID. New episodes will come out every other week on Mondays.

Alma Lake and Michelle Dawson-Pass
Monday, 1 June, 2026

Episode 192 Alma Lake and Michelle Dawson-Pass Alma and Michelle were both from Columbus, Ohio. Both were young Black women. Both had children. Both led troubled lives involving sex work and drugs. And both were slain in the 1990s and dumped outdoors in remarkably similar circumstances. But no one really connected their cases, five years apart and in different counties, until DNA in each case connected to the same unknown killer. When modern investigators flushed him out using IGG, they were not surprised to learn he had other victims. This episode is sponsored by Function Health.
