I think it's unethical to use DNA from a genealogy site. These people didn't pay these companies to have them spy on them and I'm not saying this while condoning that POS who allegedly raped and murdered those girls. First it was 123 and Me stealing your DNA for "medical purposes" and now this.

Unconstitutional.
