DNA Technology Links 77-Year-Old to Historic Sex Assaults
Description
77-year-old Robert Kwan faces serious sexual assault charges from 1991 to 2002, identified through a groundbreaking DNA technology called Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy (FIGG). Police arrested Kwan after matching DNA evidence to a relative, leading to multiple charges. Despite health issues and bail requests, Kwans defense team questions the admissibility of DNA evidence due to lack of detail in the laboratory reports and methods used. The court denied bail, with the cases strength relying on the DNA evidences acceptance. Kwan has not entered pleas, and the legal battle over this new DNA technology is expected to be a significant part of the proceedings.
