Interesting... they are probably anonymous because they are informants or in witness protection.
Unfortunately, the FBI DNA no longer matches:
"48 Hours" has learned that initially, the sample from the crime scene was not very detailed and had only 16 markers, but more advanced testing in 2020 came up with an additional nine markers, bringing the total marker count to 25. However, this more advanced testing revealed that the sample from the crime scene no longer proved to be a match to the sample in the public DNA database. In a letter to Congressman McCaul obtained by "48 Hours," the FBI explained the new results "conclusively exclude the male donor of the FBI's sample … as such, the FBI Y-STR profile is not an investigative lead."
You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.

A couple of weeks ago I looked this case up because I had not heard any updates about it; there were no updates when I looked. It is great to hear there might be a break coming.
This case is local to me and one I have serious doubts will be solved while the perpetrators are alive . They have dna evidence that excluded the four men falsely accused of the murders and there are law enforcement and prosecutors in Austin still maintaining the men are guilty .
