IFPD Reveals Phenotype Snapshot

Today, we are pleased to announce our recent collaboration with Parabon Nanolabs and Channel Blend as we reveal and begin dissemination of a DNA Phenotype Snapshot.

Parabon Nanolabs, a Virginia-based DNA Technology company introduced to the IFPD at a Chiefs of Police Conference, has created a sketch of our unknown killer from the DNA’s genetic instruction and make-up to predict physical appearance, including eye color, hair color, skin color and face shape.
The IFPD is also collaborating with Channel Blend of Idaho Falls to create a 24-hour tipline to receive information and tips from the public. The number is 1-800-927-1239. Callers may leave a name and a number for a callback from detectives, or they can leave an anonymous tip that will be recorded. All tips and information provided will be reviewed and followed-up by detectives.
