flag Saskatoon police identified Alice Spence, a woman killed before 1920, using genetic genealogy and DNA from relatives.

flag In 2025, Saskatoon police solved a century-old homicide case by identifying the woman found in a well in 2006 as Alice Spence, using genetic genealogy. flag Her remains, discovered during construction, showed signs of a suspicious death, and she was believed to have died before 1920, aged 25 to 35, of Irish descent, about five-foot-one. flag Police traced her identity through DNA from distant relatives, including Cindy Camp, her great-granddaughter, after a breakthrough inspired by a similar case. flag The investigation remains open, with no suspect identified and no records from before 1956 due to lost files.
