Summary

True Crime Bullshit is partnering with Othram Labs / DNA Solves in 2022. We have put together a list of Does that DNA Solves will be working to identify. Each Doe on that list has been or will be covered on the podcast, and could potentially be linked to Keyes. The first of these campaigns is for the Cowlitz County John Doe. Check out this minisode for information about the Doe, potential matches, and how he could relate to Keyes.

TCB will be back tomorrow with episode 0513.

The Cowlitz-John Doe stood out to us for a few reasons.

The first is the location itself.
