    I didn't realize they had to get permission to let the DNA database search pull up possible family members, which would help them narrow it down. I guess it makes sense though.

    A lot of details about what he did with the people that I'm not too crazy about making a paper.

    Still, DNA is amazing.

    I know, they didn't have to be so graphic did they? It's like with all the old Dahmer stories, there were some things they didn't have to go into detail about.

    The sexual abuse is what I'm a little iffy on, but I don't want to thread jack with a huge debate.

    The bigger debate will be in five years when a family is under suspicion of a crime due to DNA.

    What am I missing?

    Looks like pretty standard reporting details to me.

    The fact they were killed is enough for me. I don't need to know what pleasures he took with them.

    That's just me, though. I know other people have different thoughts on that.

    I'm with Simon, what details?
    It mentioned he sexually abused them... that was it wasn't it. There was no detail. Unless I missed it.
    I thought it was pretty straight forward and standard.

    I, too, looked for the offending "details" and found none.

    Isn't that enough?
