0:00.0 | Yeah, Billy, you know, as you and I know, much better than me, they've been using, you know, |
0:05.7 | different DNA analysis since the attacks of September 11th because of all of the body parts that |
0:13.4 | you and everyone else had to go through and you're getting body parts and you're taking DNA from them. |
0:18.3 | Sometimes you have a little bit, sometimes you have a lot. Is it contaminated or is it not contaminated? |
0:23.3 | And the M.E.'s office in New York City did an amazing job with you guys recovering all |

1:21.4 | There's DNA in your skin. |
1:22.7 | There's skin cells in your urine, in your blood, you know, in your hair follicle, you know, there's DNA. |
1:29.4 | That's part of what you are. |
1:31.4 | So recovering a little bit here, it doesn't have to be like it was in the in the late 80s, |
1:36.4 | early 90s where they need a lot of blood. |
1:38.5 | No, it's just a few skin cells from your, from one of your fingers, from wherever it happens |
