I never said rely on DNA only, but it does show very good proof when a person who said they have nothing to do with a crime and has left his DNA behind in a place that does not seem to be right can prove a lot.

Your logic (or lack thereof) makes my head hurt... :banghead:

--- Quote from: ChadTower on December 27, 2007, 11:39:28 am ---They can't say "he left his DNA behind". They can say "someone with a DNA profile like his left DNA behind". Look at the numbers. All it does is prove that someone in a group that also includes the defendant was involved. A very, very large group.

A large group? I heard cases where they said the error was 1 in 3 million of another person having the same DNA.
I can't believe I have to argue such a rare finger pint of a person as DNA is to you guys. It's not like the guy around the block from you will match your DNA. It's like maybe 4 people in the world would show some similarities to your DNA but still never really match.

Do the reading I suggested on just how much of a DNA profile they can pull in most cases. They aren't usually pulling anything close to that level of a DNA strand. They're pulling partial strands from old, damaged, or poor type sources in order to eliminate people, not to specifically incriminate an individual.

Your argument is based on times when they cannot get a good DNA sample. This means nothing to me. This is your way out of not agreeing and seeing I'm right.
