I was watching the press conference today regarding the arrest of a suspect in the rape and murder of Rachel Morin almost a year ago. Right up front, they announce that the case was broken by the lead from IGG and an agent from the FBI was brought to the podium and during the Q & A portion of the press conference. One of the questions posed to him was hard to hear on the video but his response went something like this:
"I think a lot of folks know about IGG in terms of the cold cases , the Golden State killer etc.
I think folks should also know that we prioritize the violent crime cases that are current...that this is a game changing investigative tool. "
He also talked about how IGG is used to identify unknown victims of crimes.
This reminded me of a recent thread on this sub and a comment about how IGG is only supposed to be used when there are no other leads....i.e. a cold case. Out of curiosity, what are the exact requirements for a case to be deemed "cold" ? If you have no leads after 7 days of investigation, isn't that cold? How long are you supposed to wait to employ this investigative tool?
I know the Idaho case hasn't had a press conference since the arrest and a gag order implemented but there has been much discussion about the IGG in sort of a secretive manner, for lack of a better term, so it was sort of interesting to see this one where the use of IGG was openly touted, and even an FBI agent was there to attest to what a great tool it was. Obviously the guy arrested will have his day in court and is innocent until proven guilty (beyond the DNA I have no idea what evidence they have on him) but now I admit I will be curious to see what his attorney does with that IGG angle after what we've seen from BK's attorneys who seem so very interested in the use of that investigative tool.
I for one am all for the use of it- I love that rapists and murderers have little chance of getting away with their crimes thanks to IGG.
They kept it a secret from the public when a public database w
The defence requested a gag order in Jan 2023. Everything was and is kept secret since then.
If it is a public database anyone can use, what is the issue?
The IGG process was outlined in state court filings and was all submitted to the judge to review and decide what should be discoverable by defence.
Airplane 2 is more or less just a reprise of Airplane, but worth it for WIlliam Shatner's gloriously silly OTT performance
you can’t guarantee someone has seen that movie.
Shirley not!
I love Airplane, and the Naked Guns. The William Shatner scene in Airplane 2, when he is talking on screen but its just a window in the door he opens always gives me a giggle - "we all have lights flashing and blinking!"
Lol, that is the scene I had in mind when I commented!!
I see a few Roguish accounts being dusted off and reanimated recentlty. Was Paducah not one too?
Except they didn't obtain Kohberger's DNA prior to arrest hmm
They did. He left it on the sheath. They also obtained an STR DNA comparison confirming Kohberger's father was the father of the sheath DNA donor.
Check out where this poster used to post
Well, well, well - another one of the Freef0lk. How 0dd, this is the fourth poster on this post alone with a brand new account or an account dormant for over a year and reactivated only for this. Whatever happened to ProfessorKhionEtcetc 😂🤣😆😂 I blocked a couple of new/ "re-animated" accounts earlier as it is glaringly obvious who they are and they blocked me on their "main" account (at least, from their one account that wasn't banned from this sub and the whole of Reddit). Edit - 4th poster today, on the Idaho4, not this post

The laboratory work including the SNP DNA profile used for the IGG was disclosed to the defense early in 2023 in the first rounds of discovery - that is how the defense knew of the IGG work and they referred to two versions of the SNP DNA profile they received as text files in a 2023 hearing. In what way is that the state keeping it secret?
You are perhaps confusing arguments over the disclosure of the family tree generated by the FBI, which together with other non-DNA profile parts of the IGG investigation notes were reviewed by the judge and part of which were deemed discoverable to be given to defense. There are still restrictions from the court on defense use of the IGG notes, family tree.
The prosecution have stated from start that IGG will not be used at trial as it does not prove guilt. This is quite different to the direct comparison of the sheath DNA to Kohberger via cheek swab which is very incriminating.
