The people being apprehended aren’t submitting their DNA. The police are deducing the DNA matches by using other people’s DNA.
From that point they used the regular process of getting his DNA and confirming.

Military has it anyways, though they claim they won't use it for criminal investigations.
As of about 10 years ago, the military has steadily refused to give DNA records to any LEO's in investigations. There have been cases where certain killing techniques were learned in specific training in the military so they knew what branch the killer was in. The military was not willing to help.

It really makes me wonder if we will eventually have a SpCrt ruling on using genealogy websites in investigations, I assume without warrants.
From a public database? You Frikkin serious?

That’s not what I understood.
From a private company’s dna report you used to ascertain your 2% sub-Saharan ancestry.

The question is, in the two recent cases did the investigators get a warrant to surreptitiously obtain the suspects' DNA (and should they need a warrant)?
