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.

DNA ID Replay Christy Mirack
Monday, 6 July, 2026

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.
