New ABC show: The Genetic Detective

May 19, 2020 By Janine Adams 6 Comments

I’m excited to watch The Genetic Detective, on ABC, premiering a week from today, on May 26. (It was originally slated to premiere tonight.) This documentary program follows investigative genetic genealogist CeCe Moore, Chief Genetic Genealogist at Parabon NanoLabs in Virginia, as she works with law enforcement to solve tackle criminal cold cases using DNA. In the premiere, she tackles her first-ever cold case.

Here’s a video from the show’s Facebook page:

I’ve heard CeCe speak more than once at genealogy conferences and of course seen her on Finding Your Roots. She’s a dynamic speaker and obviously very knowledgeable.

She looks fascinating. I think it’s very cool to see a show about genetic genealogy–not just using DNA but traditional genealogy as well–in a prime-time slot on a major network!

Will you be watching?

about me

I'm Janine Adams, a professional organizer and a genealogy enthusiast. I love doing family history research, but I find it's very easy for me to get overwhelmed and not know where to turn next. So I'm working hard to stay organized and feel in control as I grow my family tree.

In this blog, I share my discoveries and explorations, along with my organizing challenges (and solutions). I hope by sharing what I learn along the way I'll be able to help you stay focused and have fun while you do your research, too.
