Quebec cold case murder trial centres on DNA surname link
Marc André Grenon faces first-degree murder and aggravated sexual assault charges for the 2000 death of 19-year-old Guylaine Potvin in Jonquiére. Prosecutors say a project matching Y chromosome DNA to surnames led to Grenon's 2022 arrest after DNA on two discarded straws connected him to the crime scene. The five-week trial at Chicoutimi courthouse examines new DNA techniques alongside traditional policing. Potvin’s friend Audrey St Pierre and classmate Myriam Blais testified about Potvin and the night she was last seen alive.
