Sad that good cops are following this new dna fad to pin crimes on people when they used to do good old fashioned police work to pin crimes on people

I'm glad they're solving crimes, but this method is unethical as frick. And it's a slippery slope for other bullshite.
When the FDA approves it, people can start sending STEM Cells to a "bank" for future STEM Cell therapies. What happens then? Who will the company give your info to?

They had the Zodiac and he said “oh yeah a dude headed that way did it”

Can they do that? Is 23&me legally obligated to turn over DNA samples? I'm no expert but I don't think police can request that information.
Just a random stereotype, but I also don't think the housewives who are doing the 23&me test to see if they are .00002% Native Indian are not doing much of the crimes.

Vague question, but like anything else, if the police have probable cause and evidence for a warrant signed by a judge in good faith, go for it.

Users voluntarily put their DNA into a database for research. The expectation of privacy is pretty much zero.

What they're doing is narrowing in on the suspect by identifying partial matches in cousins, etc.
Then they can further narrow with more tradtional policework before finally manking the arrest.

If people supply data willingly, then I don’t see an issue.

How is using DNA a fad used to solve crimes?

el Gaucho is a massive troll. Don’t take him seriously.

I don’t necessarily like it but if they can solve some crimes that they couldn’t otherwise go for it. I have nothing to hide so it doesn’t really bother me. Like the DWI stops may take up some of my time but it’s one less a-hole on the street to worry about if they catch people.

The way it's being done does not invade anyone's privacy.
The DNA in the databases was given voluntarily, and the DNA from the suspect was left at the scene of the crime. No different than fingerprints.

Derrick Todd Lee as well. Wouldn’t investigate saying they were looking for a white guy.

To be fair, a black serial killer is not regular. Serial Killers tend to be white males.
ETA: I’m not familiar with all of the details in the case. I was around 11 or 12 when all that went down.
