A Pennsylvania woman is facing misdeameanor charges after allegedly sending "deep fake" naked photos and videos of her teenage daughter's cheerleader rivals in an effort to get them kicked off the team or convince them to kill themselves.
The skeletal remains of a pregnant teen found more than 30 years ago at the bottom of a well at a Pennsylvania distillery have been identified through ancestry DNA testing.
The remains of a missing woman were found in a well in Bensalem in 1988. They have been identified as 17-year-old Lisa Todd, of Philadelphia, who was reported missing in 1985.
On Tuesday night, Bucks County prosecutors presented the genome sequencing and DNA test results that they used to positively identify the victim as Todd, who was 17 when she died, 6ABC reported.
An investigation that began with a forensic sculpture in 1988 took leaps forward with the aid of DNA analysis, enabling authorities to raise new questions about the circumstances that led to Todd s death. Pregnant ladies don’t just fall into wells and die, Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub said a press conference. Something happened.
The DNA testing took place over the course of several years. DNA was first extracted from the skeletal remains in 2007 and later from fetal bones in 2017 and 2020. When Bensalem detectives reached out to Todd s living relatives in Philadelphia, genealogists were able to construct a family tree.
