An attorney from New Jersey is set to be extradited back to Massachusetts after he allegedly raped four women while a student in Boston, having been identified through a genealogy database.
35-year-old Matthew Nilo, of Weehawken, New Jersey, was arrested outside his luxury apartment on Tuesday, May 30, over the alleged attacks in the Charlestown neighbourhood in Boston in 2007 and 2008.
Authorities assert that all four alleged attacks have been connected through DNA, which was identified through a genealogy database like 23 and Me after family members voluntarily sent in samples.
