Woman murdered in 1936 and buried underneath building is finally identified: “One of Toronto’s oldest mysteries”The remains of a woman murdered nearly a century ago and buried beneath a building have finally been identified thanks to modern forensic testing. The culmination of the case brings closure to “one of Toronto’s oldest mysteries,” detective Michael Kelly, of the Toronto Police Service, told Canadian news site CTV News Toronto on Monday. The case couldn’t have been solved without investigative genetic genealogy, a technique that uses advanced DNA profiling to build a “family tree” that can eventually help identify an unknown individual, said Kelly. Police began to review the case in 2022, submitting new DNA samples for testing to a lab that specializes in investigative genetic genealogy and unsolved murder cases. Moffatt’s case was one of two longstanding unsolved murders in Toronto that have now been closed because of investigative genetic genealogy, police said.
