Cracking Cold Cases Using Investigative Genetic Genealogy

For the past few years, Cairenn Binder and her team of students at Ramapo College of New Jersey’s IGG Center have been using investigative genetic genealogy (IGG) to identify human remains, solve violent crimes, and help exonerate the wrongfully convicted. In this exclusive episode of Murder, She Told, Cairenn gives a behind-the-scenes look at the process of cracking the toughest of unsolved cases with IGG, shares what her students are currently working on, what it takes to become a genetic genealogist, and so much more.
