Good Morning!
So, I was wondering about Codex DNA. Is there a way to see if you are a DNA match to people in the penal system?
I know that you can do it for rape cases and paternal/maternal court cases, but I haven't heard of anything for us, to find a birth parent.
Thanks,
Sarah

I'm thinking not - I found this in a google search -
"Pursuant to federal law (the DNA Identification Act of 1994), DNA data is confidential. Access is restricted to criminal justice agencies for law enforcement identification purposes. Defendants are also permitted access to the samples and analyses performed in connection with their cases."
I know that law enforcement can use some genealogy databases to try and match DNA in criminal cases. I think it would be interesting to see what results would come about if there was public access to CODEX - just from possible genealogy matches. One thing I think would happen - we would solve many paternity questions if there was public access.

sarahdugan313Sounds interesting. I know when I did the genetic geology to build out my biological tree, there are ways where you can "triangulate" off your existing DNA matches, to fill in missing info. People think that just because they have a person marked as "alive" means that nobody else can grab that information. If memory serves, I think I did a post in the DNA section on how I did build out my bio-tree with links and more. Wishing you all the best. P.S. Just thought about it. Do you happen to know someone in a law enforcement capacity? perhaps they would be interested in helping? Your only looking for genetically related individuals right? I'd see who I knew, and where and then see if they would be willing to lend a hand.

Thank You whoisi! I actually do have an ex-boyfriend, who is a Correctional officer! Great Idea! |
