Lisa Ziegert Part 1

Episode 39 Lisa Ziegert Part 1 of 2 In 1992, aspiring 24 year-old teacher Lisa Ziegert was abducted from her second job – the clerk at a gift and collectibles shop in Agawam, Massachusetts. Her family’s worst fears came true just days later, when Lisa’s body was found on Easter Sunday, dumped in a site many felt would only be known to locals. After decades of false hopes, red herrings, and dead-end leads, Agawam investigators turned to phenotyping to narrow down their pool of suspects. Knowing the genetic makeup of the male who left his DNA on Lisa allowed them to pinpoint 11 suspects who had the right characteristics, and who had never given DNA samples. And one of those 11 was so spooked by the arrival of investigators on his doorstep, he confessed to all of it. It turned out it was far from the first time police on the Ziegert case had interacted with him.

Om Podcasten

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.
