After nearly 26 years, "Chelsea Jane Doe" was finally identified by her name this summer: Tiffany Bradley.
Naming her "Jane Clinton Doe," the Iowa Department of Public Safety took the case to the DNA Doe Project, a group of volunteer genetic genealogists.
In both Jane Doe cases, investigators relied on public DNA databases to reveal the true identities of the teenagers.
Between lab fees, processing costs and getting DNA profiles, the DNA Doe Project advises agencies to budget up to $10,900 per case.
Funding from the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System allowed the ball to roll on Edwards' and Bradley's cases, Moore said.
