DNA evidence

Topic

DNA evidence refers to the genetic material collected from a crime scene or individual used in forensic DNA analysis to establish identity, relationships, or involvement in a crime. By analyzing specific regions of deoxyribonucleic acid, forensic scientists can generate a unique DNA profile that can be compared against databases or suspects. This scientific method has become a cornerstone of modern criminal justice, used both to secure convictions and to exonerate the wrongfully accused.
