Police can request your DNA without your knowledge or consent via ancestry websites
Its not just your DNA cops can request. Even if you havent given into the temptation of trying to pinpoint your long lost ancestors, your relatives could also get you in trouble, as was the case for Michael Usry Jr.
Usry Jr was a prime suspect in the cold case murder of 18-year-old, Angie Dodge. The Idaho Falls police got a warrant to use Ancestrys database to solve the crime. It found Ursy Srs DNA, which closely matched DNA at the crime scene. Police then got a warrant for Ursys own DNA. In 2017, he was cleared of any involvement in the murder, however.
