"I printed the cases out and they were just massive, almost broke the desk," Hillman said."This isn't your typical domestic violence type murder ... This was somebody evil." A turning point in the case finally came when a forensic genealogist approached Hillman about cross-matching DNA evidence with a public database of people who've taken ancestry tests.The genealogist successfully matched the DNA evidence with the surname of Miller.Hillman said this narrowed their search for the killer from more than 800 people to five.
Hillman told 12News he was shocked to learn their suspect was right under their nose the entire time.
