Greg Hampikian explains how ‘genetic genealogy’ process believed to be used in Kohberger’s arrest

“Dr. Greg Hampikian is a world-renowned forensic biologist at Boise State University (BSU). He earned a degree in biology in 1982, a masters in genetics in 1986, and his doctorate in genetics in 1990… Dr. Hampikian sat down with KTVB’s Andrew Baertlein to discuss the process of genetic genealogy and how police could have used the practice to link Kohberger with the four Moscow murders.
