Human DNA found at Olney "house of horrors"after investigators sprayed luminol, sources say
CBS Philadelphia's Joe Holden reports from outside an Olney home as police and FBI agents dig through the backyard with heavy machinery, searching for human remains connected to missing women.
The report centers on a discovery inside the house. Police sources tell the station that investigators found human DNA after using luminol overnight to search for signs of blood. Holden says investigators are cross-referencing the discovery with videos found at the property.
The segment drew about 34,000 views in its first six hours, already well beyond the station's usual full-day audience for videos of this length. But the forensic work described in the report is not complete: the recovered DNA will undergo further analysis.
Anchors Natasha Brown and Ukee Washington introduce the update before Holden shows the excavation underway. The search extends beyond the interior rooms and backyard. At the close of his report, Holden says investigators plan to excavate the front yard next.
