Description

Magdalena Cruz did not know who her father was. But she knew he was a rapist. An ancestry DNA test led her to her likely family. When she looked at their profiles on social media she came across the photograph of a man with a striking family resemblance.

Journalist Amber Haque and criminal psychologist Dr Julia Shaw delve into the story.

I enjoy the show vmuch. This ep touched on some issues I have experience of. You can never cover every angle but 3 perspectives were not mentioned at all: 1) Commercial dna is vhorrible but the ONLY realistic option to find bio families&criminals.They only work because many people use them. 2) Huge reason to find a rapist father asap is in order to prevent further rapes. 3) Finding lost half siblings is often far far more important than finding a father. It is not all (or even mainly) about Him
