OTHRAM Uses DNA Tech to Solve Cold Cases, Including Idaho Student Murders

OTHRAM's Mission and Technology

• 🎯 OTHRAM is dedicated to identifying perpetrators from crime scenes and victims who have lost their identity, thereby solving cold cases.
• 💡 The company has developed new laboratory and software technologies that make identifications more readily, quicker, more efficient, and less costly for law enforcement.
• 🚀 OTHRAM has successfully resolved thousands of cases, with hundreds publicly identified on their website, and believes their technology can stop serial crime and bring cold cases to an end.

Solving the Evelyn Cullen Case

• 🔍 The case of Beth Doe, now identified as Evelyn Cullen, involved a pregnant teen found murdered and dismembered in 1976.
• ⚠️ Identifying Evelyn was challenging due to contamination issues from her remains being submerged in a lake for an extended period.
• ✅ OTHRAM's advanced technologies enabled the creation of a usable DNA profile, which was uploaded to genealogical databases, leading to her identification and the perpetrator's trial.
• 💔 This case was particularly poignant as Evelyn's family was led to believe she was alive due to letters written by the perpetrator.

Potential for High-Profile Cold Cases

• 🗣️ OTHRAM is in conversations with law enforcement regarding the John Benét Ramsey case, a case that has remained unsolved for 29 years.
• 🧬 Many believe that advancements in DNA testing technology could finally solve the John Benét Ramsey case.
• 🌟 OTHRAM hopes their technology will be applied to such cases to identify perpetrators and bring justice.
