materials detail the simulations & results.
If a crime stain isn't matched in the offender database, there's
still a good chance that its relative is there. The relative can likely be
found by "kinship" searching if you know how to search. If the search results
in a list of even dozens of potential relatives, sort them out with Y-haplotyping.
This approach could significantly increase the effective reach of offender database.
It could also raise some hackles and some eyebrows.
