I believe that to admit dna testing, in its current state of unregulation, with no clinical trial studies done to verify it’s accuracy rate, and with no governing body to create or enforce standards of any kind, is negligent and shows a complete disregard for the rights of anyone going through this system. That includes paternity cases where children’s lives are in the balance, women’s rights, where if the test declares them wrong and they insist they are correct, no on will listen to them, or people accused of a crime of any sort. Whose freedom is at stake. The fact that our judicial system permits this is reprehensible. Our judicial system has a responsibility to our children to protect their rights and their safety. Imagine stealing their identity, their much needed child support, a proper medical history, and all contact and knowledge of who they are, forever. That is what happens when the dna system is wrong. What is this “science” doing in our courts without clinical trials being done on them to scientifically determine their accuracy rate, without a governing body of any kind, and without verifiable standards? Anyone want to take a crack at answering that one? How did they manage to get past our judicial system’s evidence act requirements? Who did they bribe or threaten to manage this act of fraud?
