A suspected serial rapist tied to a series of sexual assaults and kidnappings in a Boston neighborhood more than a decade ago was arrested in New Jersey, police said, after investigators tied him to the crimes using DNA technology and a public database.
Investigators said Nilo was a student living in the North End neighborhood at the time of the alleged attacks.
"The technology has developed rather quickly," Fox said."It is super powerful, for law enforcement and it is 99.9% accurate, and when I say 99.99 that means the chances of that being another individual are more than the population of the planet."
