But then on December 30, they surprised us by making an arrest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bryan Kohberger<\/strong>, a student at nearby\u00a0<strong>Washington State University<\/strong>, only about 15 miles from the murder scene, was apprehended by the <strong>FBI<\/strong> all the way in Pennsylvania. How did they track him down? We heard from two law enforcement insiders speaking to\u00a0<em>CNN<\/em> that it was DNA evidence that pointed to Kohberger. Apparently the criminology student had left his DNA at the scene \u2014 though no word on whether that was hair, blood from the struggle, or some other bodily fluid.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p><strong>Related: Kohberger Did Research Project Asking Criminals How They Picked Their Victims<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\">\n<div id=\"section-63b4948204f23-paragraph-slot\" class=\"lazyload-unit\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>That has now been corroborated by new police sources speaking to\u00a0<em>ABC <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a><\/em>. They\u2019ve gone one step further, explaining that Kohberger was caught using genealogy databases! The PhD student didn\u2019t have a record, so his DNA wasn\u2019t in a criminal database. But much like they did with the Golden State Killer, the authorities were able to compare the DNA they found on the scene with what was on file thanks to websites like\u00a0<strong>23andMe<\/strong> and\u00a0<strong>Ancestry.com<\/strong>. Apparently they found a match to a family member \u2014 and a further connection in that family to a white Hyundai Elantra, matching a vehicle that had been spotted near the scene. No wonder they kept asking about the car!<\/p>\n<p>According to the sources speaking to\u00a0<em>ABC<\/em>, once they were finally able to find the elusive Hyundai, they knew their suspect had fled to the Poconos Mountains in Pennsylvania \u2014 and after a few days of staking out the house, they got their man.<\/p>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Wow, that\u2019s really amazing work from a team that consisted of a lot of cops who had never even been at a major crime scene before!<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\">\n<div id=\"section-63b4948204f27-paragraph-slot\" class=\"lazyload-unit\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Hopefully we won\u2019t have to wait too long for more info. Moscow authorities already made clear they\u2019ll release the arrest affidavit once their suspect is in custody back in Idaho. And that should happen fast. According to Kohberger\u2019s Pennsylvania public defender <strong>Jason LaBar<\/strong>, he \u201cintends to waive his extradition hearing to expedite his transport to Idaho\u201d during his hearing on Tuesday. Why?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c[Bryan] is eager to be exonerated of these charges and looks forward to resolving these matters as promptly as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p>Wow. OK. We guess we\u2019ll see how that goes for him. Our guess is not good \u2014 but we\u2019ll have a better idea once we figure out why his DNA was at the murder scene\u2026<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height:120px;width:100%;float:none;\">\n<div id=\"section-63b4948204f30-paragraph-slot\" class=\"lazyload-unit\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>[Image via KTVB\/<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LnFwpHXY6qo\">YouTube<\/a>\/Kaylee Goncalves\/Instagram.]<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
