The DNA Doe Project doesn't take on cases where the victim is a child or baby. I believe it's because as a group of citizen volunteers, it can be a bit precarious to work on child cases since once you identify a child, you are also identifying the parents who are statistically most likely to be responsible for the death. Other agencies are taking on Baby Does and child Does though, I assume Othram would be interested in this.

Ahhh, okay. Thanks - I knew they took teens, didn't know they don't take victim young children or babies, but that makes sense
