Here's an interesting one from Alabama. A man's skull was found in an electronically locked safe with an older Nintendo controller (NES? N64?) controller inside with it. There aren't too many details past that.

Now that's an odd one. If the skull had been kept in a safe, presumably it wouldn't have suffered much from weathering, if it had been in good condition when it had been put in.....therefore, it should be a good candidate for dna extraction.

Does Othram testing produce a result that can be entered into CODIS?

Othram, would scanning fingerprints published in newspapers help solve cases? Because if so, I have a particular cold case from the 20th century for you…
