Sweden: man goes on trial for 2004 murder after DNA matched to genealogy site

Daniel Nyqvist, 37, admits killing boy and woman 15 years ago but claims it was manslaughter

A 37-year-old Swedish man has gone on trial for double murder after two killings that went unsolved for more than 15 years until police matched his DNA on a popular genealogy website.

Daniel Nyqvist, who confessed to the crime shortly after his arrest last June, has been charged with the 2004 murder of a 56-year-old woman and an eight-year-old boy.
