Kenneth Perry was accused of a 1990 double murder of a brother and sister in Stone Mountain, Georgia on on July 15, 1990. DNA and forensic genealogy linked Perry to the killings of Pamela and John Sumpter. Perry faced multiple charges, including two counts of malice murder, felony murder, rape, aggravated battery, and possession of a knife during the commission of a felony. When DeKalb County police arrived, Pamela Sumpter, 43, told officers she had been raped and stabbed, and that her brother, 46-year-old John Sumpter, had also been stabbed and possibly died in their apartment next door. Pamela was able to give police a description of the suspect before dying from her injuries nearly two weeks later. She told officers her brother had brought a man to their apartment, whom she knew little about, except that he was from Detroit. After more than 30 years, DNA evidence and forensic genetic genealogy analysis helped link Perry to the crime.
