DNA has freed many wrongly convicted criminals, locked up murders and rapist and criminals
of lesser crimes. Crime Investigators owe it to DNA to making their job so much simpler and
accurate, they can place a certain person and a scene in a instant. DNA was the help all
court rooms were looking for, so that the right criminal would receive the penalty they
deserve while the good man walks away. Sure a murder weapon and some words can prove
a lot, but DNA can place a person there and go into simpler little details.
DNA profiling is a common word in courtrooms these days, if your lawyer defending a murder
chances are you'd be wishing you'd have a strand of DNA. DNA is basically foolproof all you
need to do is link a certain person to the scene then you got them there and find a motive
DNA also known as Deoxyribonucleic acid is defined as a nucleic acid consisting of large
molecules shaped like a double helix; associated with the transmission of genetic information.
Some may think right away it shouldn't be hard to catch criminals with DNA, however not all
states or provinces use DNA profiling. The cost is to high for some places, other places just
don't have the technology and of course some do have DNA profiling but don't have a lot of
specimens in their system which usually means they need the suspect to give a DNA sample
then compare to the ones found as the scene of the crime.
Deoxyribonucleic acid, is a natural for crime-solving. It holds an individual's unique genetic
code and is carried in most body cells. Patterns in DNA often are present in blood, semen and
other evidence left at the scenes of violent crimes. (See Figure 2)
But don't understand this wrong, im sure everyone has seen an episode of either Law and
Order or CSI , I personally watch both those shows everyday. They make DNA test
