DNA was old news sure but using it to identify individuals was only theoretical and hardly widespread knowledge, it wouldn't be practical until the late 80s/ear

- qiskit 5y agoSure. But police departments started keeping dna evidence in the 70s/80s in anticipation of advances in technology. It's how the golden state killer was eventually caught. If police departments were capable of such forward thinking, it's hard for me to believe the kgb wasn't. If the russians did get hitler's body, then they most likely still have it or dna material. Also, aren't they worried that fsb headquarters or their archives will attract fascists wanting to pay homage to hitler?
