Star Corporate Lawyer Accused of Being Long-Time SERIAL RAPIST

A Manhattan corporate attorney is accused of serial rape and arrested in New Jersey. Matthew Nilo, 35, is charged with sexually assaulting four women 15 years ago. The first victim reported being abducted at gunpoint, driven to Terminal Street in Charleston, and raped. A fourth woman was attacked while she was jogging.  Investigators turned to forensic investigative genealogy, and after identifying Nilo as a person of interest, he was placed under surveillance. FBI agents obtain eating utensils and drinking glasses Niko used at a  corporate event. A DNA profile, which matched the rape suspect,  was obtained from one of the glasses.   Nilo has pleaded not guilty.  Joining Nancy Grace Today: Jean Fisher - Former Chief Deputy prosecutor in Ada County, Boise, ID; Former Special Crimes Chief Deputy (specializing in murder, crimes against children, and sexual assault); Director of Curriculum in Building Hope Today Dr. Shari Schwartz - Forensic Psychologist (specializing in Capital Mitigation and Victim Advocacy); Twitter: @TrialDoc; Author: "Criminal Behavior" and "Where Law and Psychology Intersect: Issues in Legal Psychology" Robert Crispin - "Crispin Investigations" Private Investigator; Former Federal Task Force Officer for United States Department of Justice, DEA and Miami Field Division; Former Homicide and Crimes Against Children Investigator; Facebook: Crispin Special Investigations, Inc.    Michael Brophy - Brophy Professional Genealogy & Heir Searching, Professional Genealogist based in Boston; Twitter: @brophy123, Facebook: @brophygenealogy  Rachel Countryman - Forensic nurse expert for Godoy Medical Forensics, Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE); Twitter: @GodoyForensics  Bob Ward- Reporter for Boston 25 News; Twitter: Bward3, Facebook: Bob Ward Boston 25  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Search Continues for Son Vanishes Without a Trace: WHERE'S RICKY?

The search for Ricky Griffis began two days after his last contact with his mother. When Alice Mabe texted her 46-year-old son, asking if he was coming home that night, he said "no." He didn’t come home the next night either. And then he didn’t show up for work.   Griffis was seen leaving an acquaintance’s place of business on July 5th. Several texts were exchanged with the acquaintance. The next day his car was found near the Coopersville strip mines. That morning, Griffis sent his family a strange text around 9 a.m. It said he was stuck in the woods, but Griffis’ cell phone was found in the vehicle, along with his wallet.

Astronomical DNA Match Places Bryan Kohberger Inside Murder House

The likelihood of the DNA found on a knife sheath found inside the Idaho student murder house being someone other that Bryan Kohberger is astronomical. An STR  (short tandem repeat) analysis shows the suspect's  DNA is a “statistical match.”   Documents state “the STR profile is at least 5.37 octillion times more likely to be seen if (the) Defendant is the source than if an unrelated individual randomly selected from the general population is the source.”  An octillion is equal to a number followed by 27 zeros. Join Nancy Grace, forensic expert Joseph Scott Morgan and investigator Chris McDonough for this lively discussion, See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
