re: Arse's tip of the day: if you test your DNA, don't leave chili dog napkins laying around

How do they prove the napkin was his and not one of the dozens of others in the trash can?

They don't have to anymore. They just needed probable cause to arrest him. It said that they swabbed him once in custody and it's still a match.

After Westrom’s arrest this week, DNA was collected from him. It too was a match with DNA on the washcloth seized from the homicide scene, authorities said. His DNA allegedly also matched sperm on the towel and the comforter from the apartment.

I thought the same thing, but it likely just gave them enough probable cause to make the arrest. Once inside, they swabbed his arse and got what they needed.
I'll never send my dna off somewhere. You'd have to be an idiot to do so.

I could see using the results from the one in the trash can to get probable cause for a search warrant to get an actual sample but not probable cause for arrest

It would sure as shite be pretty coincidental that someone else who threw a napkin in that trashcan had DNA that matched the crime scene, no?
