The December 1994 kidnappings of Joann Katrinak and her 4-month-old son, Alex. This was one of the first cases of DNA being successfully used in a criminal investigation in the United States. Unravel the mystery alongside the FBI's greatest law enforcers and forensic scientists.

From Season 2 Episode 11 - The FBI Files - 'Family Secrets' - A young mother and her infant son mysteriously disappeared from their home. The woman’s husband was the only suspect, but he was eventually cleared. There was no solid evidence that a crime had even been committed. Six months later, a local farmer found the remains of the missing woman and her child. Both had been murdered. Agents and local police had only one tiny piece of evidence, an unidentified hair found in the murdered woman’s car. The hair was too small for analysis. FBI lab examiners developed a new DNA technique and finally ended the mystery. The husband’s jealous ex-girlfriend had senselessly murdered the woman and her son.
