A decade after the murder of Allison Feldman, jury selection began in October 2025 in the long-delayed murder trial that has drawn widespread attention in Scottsdale and Arizona.

Feldman, 31, was found beaten to death inside her Scottsdale home in February 2015. For three years, investigators had no suspect in the case, until they turned to new technology that Arizona authorities had never used before: familial DNA.

Investigators say they identified Ian Mitcham as the suspect after DNA evidence from the crime scene closely matched genetic material belonging to Mitcham’s brother, who was already in prison. Police later located a vial of Mitcham’s blood from a 2015 DUI arrest. A sample of that, according to reports, should have been destroyed years earlier.

Without obtaining a new warrant, Scottsdale police tested that blood and created Mitcham’s DNA profile, which they say matched evidence from the Feldman crime scene.

That decision sparked privacy and ethical debates that reached the Arizona Supreme Court, where justices ultimately upheld the use of the evidence.
