DNA and CODIS Solve Decade Old Crime - Missing and Exploited Children
DNA and CODIS Solve Decade Old Crime
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the body’s unique biological code which contains the genetic design of each living organism. Each living organism contains an individual DNA profile. DNA stores information about the individual organism. Since a person’s DNA is individualized specifically to that person it can be an identifier in forensic science or cases or paternity. Lately DNA is becoming a household word often heard on the news regarding the arrest, conviction, or release of a person involved in a crime.
Back in the early 50’s James D. Watson and Francis H.C. Crick, were the first biochemists to propose a model for the structure of DNA. Their work in the structure and identification of DNA has opened up a whole new world for science and a Nobel Prize for both men in 1962. In the present their work brings to the forefront of crime a way to identify parents of children and criminals.
Identical twins form when one fertilized egg divides into halves. Identical twins are the only people who have the same DNA. Fraternal twins form when two eggs, fertilized by two different sperm. Fraternal twins have their own individual DNA. The DNA of a fraternal twin is no closer to matching the DNA of the other fraternal twin than any other sibling DNA would match as most siblings and fraternal twins share about 50% of their genes.
Although identical twins have the same DNA genotype, or internal cell DNA, their DNA has different phenotypes or external ways the DNA shows up. In other words, identical twins have individual fingerprints. So, if a serial rapist has an identical twin, law enforcement must find more evidence to use for conviction. A simple fingerprint however can and will distinguish identical twins.
Federal Law requires all convicted felons provide DNA to the Nation’s Combined DNA Index System (CODIS). CODIS essentially takes the best of forensic science and computer technology to compare DNA samples of unsolved violent crimes nationwide. If the DNA evidence collected from a crime scene or crime victim was entered into CODIS, and later a felon’s DNA is entered and it matches law enforcement is notified.
This same simple DNA sample for CODIS is exactly what led to the arrest of a serial rapist in a crime over a decade old in Missouri. The sexual assaults happened from 1996 through 1998. As far as law enforcement knows four girls were assaulted. All the girls were assaulted in their or a home of a friend, while parents or adults slept in rooms other bedrooms of the homes. The girls were age 11 to 17 at the time they were raped.
Charles Joseph Steffani was 54, when he received his sentence of 20 years in prison. This sentence given for sexual assaults committed in June 2005 in both the St. Louis and St. Charles counties of Missouri. What happened next is exactly what CODIS is designed to have happen. Steffani, now a felon, had to give DNA sample for CODIS and when he did and it was tested it gave a “hit” that he was a match for the rapes of the four young women in Missouri.
The only downfall is CODIS has caused a backlog in Missouri’s state crime lab as in most states, and this backlog prevented law enforcement officials from receiving the news of the match sooner. Law enforcement only learned last summer about the match with Steffani. Once officials learned there were several hits they began to compare notes among themselves and review old cold cases to see what fit and what did not fit and soon the cold cases heated up.
The first assault occurred when a man entered a home through an unlocked sliding glass door, and assaulted a17-year old in her bedroom, after pulling a pillow case over her head. The next night he entered another suburban home using a garage door opener from a car in a driveway. This time he assaulted a 12-year old, after pulling her shirt over her head. This was November 1996.
Then nothing, until April of 1998, when a 12-year old girl is assaulted while at a sleep over with two other girls. The rapist left all 3 girls with a “message from God”. He told the girls to go to church on Sunday and not to have sex until the girls were married. The last known attack occurred in June of 1998. Once more the man entered the girl’s home with a garage door opener he grabbed from a car in the driveway.
The prosecuting attorney’s office talked to all four survivors recently. How incredible to be able to tell these women that the monster who terrorized them has been identified and is in prison, thanks to the modern wonders of DNA. Now a decade later, the women could finally place a name and face to a childhood monster that crept out of the darkness so quietly a decade ago, Charles Joseph Steffani. A Grand Jury charged Steffani with 17 felonies. Those include multiple counts of forcible sodomy, sexual abuse, and one count of statutory sodomy and forcible rape for each woman.
There was a time unless a survivor could positively identify her attacker, there was no case. DNA technology can identify a rapist years, even decades later. Yes, technology is amazing. Yet, DNA is only as good as the person who collects and preserves the evidence. A crime scene once contaminated loses any DNA that is present.
Recently DNA from stamps attached to an envelope several decades old held clues to the identity of a serial killer who had mailed letters about the crimes he or she committed to a newspaper years earlier. A crime once considered unsolvable, before DNA was even considered as a tool in crime fighting; now one day may be able to identify a serial killer who has tormented a country. Currently any DNA evidence properly collected and preserved increases the chances of the case one day having a resolution, even if several more years down the line. DNA is just the beginning of what is to come in forensics, crime fighting and helping survivors bring closure.

9 crucial tips for Safety
Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or love one's life.
Crucial
Because of recent abductions
in daylight hours,refresh yourself
of these things to do
in an emergency situation...
This is for you,
and for you to share
with your wife,
your children,
everyone you know.
After reading these 9 crucial tips ,
forward them to someone you care about.
It never hurts to be careful
in this crazy world we live in.
1 Tip from Tae Kwon Do :
The elbow
is the strongest point
on your body.
If you are close enough to use it,
do!
2. Learned this from a tourist guide
in New Orleans .
If a robber asks
for your wallet and/or purse,
DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM .
Toss it away from you....
chances are
that he is more interested
in your wallet and/or purse
than you,
and he will go
for the wallet/purse.
RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown
into the trunk of a car,
kick out the back tail lights
and stick your arm out the hole
and start waving like crazy.
The driver won't see you,
but everybody else will.
This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency
to get into their cars after shopping,
eating, working, etc.,
and just sit (doing their checkbook,
or making a list, etc.
DON'T DO THIS!)
The predator
will be watching you,
and this is the perfect opportunity
for him to get in
on the passenger side,
put a gun to your head,
and tell you where to go.
AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR ,
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.
a. If someone
is in the car
with a gun
to your head
DO NOT DRIVE OFF,
repeat:
DO NOT DRIVE OFF!
Instead gun the engine
and speed into anything,
wrecking the car.
Your Air Bag will save you.
If the person is
in the back seat
they will get the worst of it .
As soon as the car crashes
bail out and run.
It is better than having them
find your body
in a remote location.
5 A few notes about getting
into your car in a parking lot,
or parking garage:
A.) Be aware:
look around you,
look into your car,
at the passenger side floor ,
and in the back seat
B..) If you are parked next to a big van,
enter your car from the passenger door .
Most serial killers attack their victims
by pulling them into their vans
while the women are attempting
to get into their cars.
C..) Look at the car
parked on the driver's side
of your vehicle,
and the passenger side.
If a male is sitting alone
in the seat nearest your car,
you may want to walk back
into the mall, or work,
and get a guard/policeman
to walk you back out.
IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead..)
6. ALWAYS
take the elevator
instead of the stairs.
(Stairwells are horrible places
to be alone
and the perfect crime spot.
This is especially true at NIGHT!)
7. If the predator has a gun
and you are not under his control,
ALWAYS RUN!
The predator will only hit you
(a running target)
4 in 100 times;
And even then,
it most likely
WILL NOT
be a vital organ.
RUN,
Preferably !
in a zig -zag pattern!
8. As women,
we are always trying
to be sympathetic:
STOP
It may get you raped,
or killed.
Ted Bundy,
the serial killer,
was a good-looking,
well educated man,
who ALWAYS played
on the sympathies
of unsuspecting women.
He walked with a cane,
or a limp,
and often asked
"for help"
into his vehicle
or with his vehicle,
which is when he abducted
his next victim.
************* Here it is *******
9. Another Safety Point:
Someone just told me
that her friend heard
a crying baby on her porch
the night before last,
and she called the police
because it was late
and she thought it was weird.
The police told her
"Whatever you do,
DO NOT
open the door."
The lady
then said that
it sounded like the baby
had crawled near a window,
and she was worried
that it would crawl
to the street
and get run over.
The policeman said,
"We already have a unit on the way,
whatever you do,
DO NOT open the door."
He told her that they think
a serial killer
has a baby's cry recorded
and uses it to coax
women out of their homes
thinking that someone
dropped off a baby
He said they have not verified it,
but have had several calls
by women saying that
they hear baby's cries
outside their doors
when they're home alone
at night.
Please pass this on and
DO NOT
open the door
for a crying baby ----
This
e-mail should probably
be taken seriously because
the Crying Baby theory
was mentioned on
America 's Most Wanted
this past Saturday
when they profiled
the serial killer in Louisiana .
I'd like you
to forward this
to all the women you know.
It may save a life.
A candle is not dimmed
by lighting another candle.
I was going to send this to the ladies only,
but guys,
if you love your mothers,
wives,
sisters,
daughters, etc.,
you may want to
pass it onto them, as well.
Send this
to any woman you know
that may need
to be reminded
that the world we live in
has a lot of crazies in it
and it's better to be safe
than sorry.
Everyone should take 5 minute to read this. It may save your life or love one's life
