Remains of new dad killed in 9/11 attacks identified thanks to DNA breakthrough
"The remains of a new dad killed at the World Trade Center on 9/11 have finally been identified more than two decades later — thanks to groundbreaking new DNA technology.
"John Ballantine Niven, 44, of Oyster Bay, Long Island, was on the 105th floor of the South Tower when he was killed on that fateful Tuesday — leaving behind his wife and 18-month-old son.
"The new father was the senior vice president of mergers and acquisitions at Aon Risk Services.
"His remains have been positively identified using breakthrough DNA sequencing technology, along with a mitochondrial DNA analysis and other procedures that have been refined since the 2001 terror attack, New York City officials announced Thursday."

The good news is that now Mr. Niven's remains can be laid to rest. Unfortunately, the psychological torture, murder, and horror committed by Al Qaeda, Hamas, and the Nazis still reverberate to this day and will never be forgotten -- or forgiven.
