Forensic Genetic Genealogy (FGG) has emerged as a game-changer for resolving cold cases, sometimes decade old. Since it was first used on the Sarah Yarborough homicide in 2011, FGG has been critical in solving an estimated 2000 cold case violent crimes and unidentified human remains cases. This seminar provides an understandable descrption of how FGG has developed, how it works, how effective it is, and how it can be incorporated into both new and already existing cold case units, It also includes a discussion of new ways of solving cold cases using FGG that were not possible in the past. The presentation is supported throughout by appropriate FGG case studies.

PRESENTER: Colleen Fitzpatrick, President, Identifinders International
