Bryan Kohberger's Legal Team Brings Aboard A Genealogist To Challenge The DNA Evidence

Bryan Kohberger's Legal Team Brings Aboard A Genealogist To Challenge The DNA Evidence

Genetic genealogy is a field that combines traditional genealogy research with modern DNA testing techniques to trace familial relationships and ancestry through genetic information. It involves analyzing an individual's DNA to uncover their genetic heritage, connect with distant relatives, and map out family trees. This approach has gained significant popularity due to advancements in DNA sequencing technology, particularly in the form of direct-to-consumer DNA testing kits.Here's how genetic genealogy works and how it's used by investigators:
  1. DNA Testing: Individuals interested in exploring their genetic heritage and family history can submit their DNA samples through services provided by companies like AncestryDNA, 23andMe, and MyHeritageDNA. These companies analyze specific segments of the submitted DNA to identify genetic markers that are common among different populations and individuals.
  2. Genetic Markers: Certain sections of the DNA, particularly those found in the Y chromosome (passed from father to son) and the mitochondrial DNA (passed from mother to all offspring), contain genetic markers that can be used to identify ancestral lineages. Autosomal DNA, which is inherited from both parents, is also examined to find matches with other individuals in the testing company's database.
  3. Matching and Comparison: Testing companies compare an individual's genetic markers with those of other users in their databases. If two individuals share a significant amount of genetic material, they are considered genetic matches. The more segments of DNA they share, the closer their relationship is likely to be.
  4. Building Family Trees: Genetic genealogy involves constructing family trees using a combination of traditional genealogical research and the information gained from DNA matches. By connecting with other users who share segments of DNA, individuals can extend their family trees and discover new branches of their lineage.
  5. Identifying Common Ancestors: As more people participate in DNA testing, the chances of finding common ancestors increase. Overlapping segments of shared DNA can help identify specific ancestors or ancestral groups that are shared among related individuals.
  6. Forensic and Investigative Applications: Genetic genealogy has also found applications in criminal investigations. Law enforcement agencies have used DNA databases to identify unknown perpetrators of crimes like murder and sexual assault. In cases where traditional investigative methods have been unsuccessful, investigators can upload DNA profiles from crime scenes to genealogy databases and identify potential relatives of the suspect based on shared genetic markers.
  7. Building Family Trees for Identification: Once potential relatives of the suspect are identified, investigators work to build family trees using genealogical records, such as birth certificates, marriage records, and obituaries. By tracing the shared ancestry of these relatives, law enforcement can narrow down the list of potential suspects to a smaller pool.
  8. Narrowing Down Suspects: Investigative genetic genealogy can help law enforcement focus on specific individuals who fit the profile of the unknown suspect based on age, location, and other relevant factors. This process has led to the successful identification and capture of suspects in several high-profile cases.




Bryan Kohberger's defense team has brought on Leah Larkin, a well respected genealogist to challenge the findings made by the prosecution during the DNA portion of the investigation. She will look to punch holes in the DNA evidence provided by the FBI and Moscow police and hopefully, from the defenses standpoint, provide a narrative that differs from the one presented by the prosecution.

Mega Edition:   Andrew's Comeback Plans Hit  A Wall (11/7/25)

Mega Edition: Andrew's Comeback Plans Hit A Wall (11/7/25)

Prince Andrew, Duke of York attempted a comeback into public royal life after formally stepping back in 2019, but the efforts were swiftly frozen by the senior royal family amid mounting scandal. After his disastrous BBC interview and the civil settlement with Virginia Giuffre in 2022, Andrew quietly hoped to rehabilitate his reputation and re-emerge at low-key royal events. Instead, in October 2025 the palace confirmed he would no longer use his Duke of York title or royal honours — a decision reportedly made in close consultation with his brother King Charles III and his son Prince William, Prince of Wales, who both viewed Andrew’s presence as a continuing distraction to the monarchy.Despite murmurs of a comeback strategy — appearances at charitable events, discreet patronage involvement — the monarchy drew a hard line. Andrew’s titles, honours and privileged residence at Royal Lodge near Windsor Castle were revoked or set for removal, signalling that any revival would not be sanctioned. Charles’ decision to strip Andrew of his official capacity not only ended the comeback effort but demonstrated the institution’s priority: preserving its integrity over personal loyalty. Analysts say the move cements an irreversible cut-off and makes any future public role for Andrew extremely unlikely.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition: The Ghislaine Maxwell Trial And The Sealed Co-Conspirators (11/8/25)

Judge Alison Nathan’s management of the Ghislaine Maxwell trial unsealing process revealed the stark contradictions at the heart of the U.S. judicial system’s approach to the Epstein network—public accountability in theory, institutional protection in practice. While Nathan presided over a high-profile prosecution that promised transparency, her decisions to keep the names of alleged co-conspirators sealed effectively reinforced the wall of secrecy that has surrounded the Epstein case for decades. Prosecutors had acknowledged the existence of additional “uncharged co-conspirators,” yet Nathan maintained that releasing those names could “unfairly harm individuals not on trial.” That justification rings hollow when weighed against the magnitude of Epstein’s crimes and the global power web he operated within. For the public, the perception is clear: justice may have reached Ghislaine Maxwell, but it politely stopped short of everyone else.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Former Prince Andrew The Convenient Covid Diagnoses

Former Prince Andrew The Convenient Covid Diagnoses

It’s curious how Prince Andrew’s COVID-19 diagnosis surfaced just as he was set to appear at one of the biggest public events of his post-scandal life — Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee Thanksgiving Service. The palace claimed he had “tested positive” and would therefore miss the ceremony. To many, that announcement felt a little too convenient. Andrew’s absence spared the royals from the awkward optics of his presence amid the jubilee celebrations, where his appearance would’ve surely drawn boos, headlines, and renewed scrutiny. Critics online quickly called the timing “suspect,” noting that a sudden case of COVID seemed to arrive right on schedule to save both Andrew and the Crown from public embarrassment.The vagueness surrounding the diagnosis didn’t help either. Buckingham Palace offered no details on how sick he was, when he tested positive, or whether anyone else in his circle had been affected. Given the royal family’s long-standing penchant for secrecy — especially when managing scandal — many observers questioned whether this was truly about health or about optics. Even royal commentators admitted that the announcement’s timing “raised eyebrows” and that it might have been a polite cover for keeping him far away from the cameras. Whether coincidence or calculated withdrawal, the entire episode only deepened the public’s skepticism toward both Andrew’s integrity and the monarchy’s management of his reputation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Former Prince Andrew And Harry Dunn

Former Prince Andrew And Harry Dunn

In August 2019, 19-year-old Harry Dunn was killed in a motorcycle collision near RAF Croughton, Northamptonshire, when a car driven by Anne Sacoolas — the wife of a U.S. intelligence official stationed at the base — crossed into the wrong lane. Sacoolas claimed diplomatic immunity and fled back to the U.S., sparking a major diplomatic row between the UK and U.S. over extradition and accountability. Harry’s family sought justice and attempted to use high-level leverage — including linking Sacoolas’s return to the UK with the U.S. questioning of Prince Andrew — but no formal exchange deal was made.Separately, Prince Andrew’s name has been engulfed in scandal due to his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, allegations of sexual misconduct raised by victim Virginia Giuffre — who claimed she was trafficked and forced into sex with him when 17 — and his publicly disastrous BBC interview in 2019. He categorically denies the allegations, but the legal, royal and public fallout has been intense: he stepped back from public duties in 2020, faced a U.S. civil lawsuit which was settled out of court in 2022, and his UK military affiliations and royal patronages were removed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Queen And Her Terrible Idea To Show Support For Andrew During Prince Philips Funeral

The Queen And Her Terrible Idea To Show Support For Andrew During Prince Philips Funeral

At Prince Philip’s memorial service in March 2022, the Queen shocked royal watchers by arriving arm-in-arm with Prince Andrew, her disgraced son who had just weeks earlier settled a U.S. civil case with Virginia Giuffre over sexual-assault allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein. The image of the monarch publicly escorted by Andrew into Westminster Abbey — in front of cameras and global audiences — was seen as a deliberate act of endorsement. It came at a moment when the rest of the Royal Family had carefully distanced themselves from him, making the Queen’s decision feel tone-deaf and defiant in the face of widespread disgust.The optics were brutal. To much of the public, it looked as if the Queen was rehabilitating Andrew’s image and signaling royal forgiveness before the dust had even settled on his legal disgrace. Critics said it undercut the monarchy’s message of integrity and accountability, turning what was meant to be a solemn tribute to Prince Philip into a PR disaster. Commentators described it as a “misjudged show of support,” arguing that the Queen, perhaps out of maternal loyalty, had allowed personal sentiment to eclipse public perception — and in doing so, reignited outrage over Andrew’s continued presence at royal events.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Andrew And His Exclusion From The Garter Day Celebrations

Andrew And His Exclusion From The Garter Day Celebrations

In June 2022, Prince Andrew was conspicuously absent from the public procession of the Order of the Garter Day ceremony at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, despite being a member of the order. It was revealed that this omission was due to a so-called “family decision” — reportedly influenced by Prince Charles and Prince William — aimed at avoiding potential public backlash given Andrew’s reputation at the time. His name still appeared in one version of the printed Order of Service but was omitted from the version distributed to the public.This exclusion drew criticism as a clear sign of his fall from favour within the royal family and the institution. While he did attend the private lunch and investiture portions of the ceremony, his absence from the public procession suggested a deliberate effort to sideline him in high-profile royal events, symbolising both the damage to his standing and the monarchy’s need to preserve its public image amidst territorial scandal.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Alex Acosta Goes To Congress:   Transcripts From The Alex Acosta Deposition (Part 13) (11/7/25)

Alex Acosta Goes To Congress: Transcripts From The Alex Acosta Deposition (Part 13) (11/7/25)

When Alex Acosta sat before Congress to explain himself, what unfolded was less an act of accountability and more a masterclass in bureaucratic self-preservation. He painted the 2008 Epstein plea deal as a “strategic compromise,” claiming a federal trial might have been too risky because victims were “unreliable” and evidence was “thin.” In reality, federal prosecutors had a mountain of corroborating witness statements, corroborative travel logs, and sworn victim testimony—yet Acosta gave Epstein the deal of the century. The so-called non-prosecution agreement wasn’t justice; it was a backroom surrender, executed in secrecy, without even notifying the victims. When pressed on this, Acosta spun excuses about legal precedent and “jurisdictional confusion,” never once admitting the obvious: his office protected a rich, politically connected predator at the expense of dozens of trafficked girls.Even more damning was Acosta’s insistence that he acted out of pragmatism, not pressure. He denied that anyone “higher up” told him to back off—even though he once told reporters that he’d been informed Epstein “belonged to intelligence.” Under oath, he downplayed that statement, twisting it into bureaucratic double-speak. He even claimed the deal achieved “some level of justice” because Epstein registered as a sex offender—a hollow justification that only exposed how insulated from reality he remains. Acosta never showed remorse for the irreparable damage caused by his cowardice. His congressional testimony reeked of moral rot, the same rot that let a billionaire pedophile walk free while survivors were left to pick up the pieces.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Acosta Transcript.pdf - Google DriveBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

DOJ Insiders Admit That The Contents Of The Epstein Files Are Worse Than Reported (11/7/25)

DOJ Insiders Admit That The Contents Of The Epstein Files Are Worse Than Reported (11/7/25)

The Department of Justice (DOJ) reportedly informed congressional Republicans that the files tied to Jeffrey Epstein are “even worse” for Donald Trump than previously publicized, suggesting that evidence of Trump’s connection to Epstein is more extensive and potentially more damaging than past reporting indicated. The leaks reflect mounting anxiety among GOP lawmakers, some of whom are reportedly preparing to back efforts to force the release of related investigative records.The piece also notes that the rumor mill—particularly an account from Michael Wolff stating Epstein had shown him photos of Trump with underage girls—has stirred serious concern. The silence and evasive behavior of key figures, such as the Attorney General, have further alarmed members of Congress who fear a cover-up, prompting a growing coalition of over 100 Republicans ready to confront what they anticipate is an escalating exposure of wrongdoing.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DOJ Admits to Republicans That Epstein Files Are Even Worse for Trump | The New RepublicBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
