Very true, sadly still many states will not test inmates via DNA and/or there is no DNA to test against. Other element people seem to forget about DNA testing aside from how expensive it is, it is nothing like we see on CSI. There are no take this down to the other end of the office and have it to me by the end of the shift testing going on. Typically it can and does take months to get results back. When someone high up says put a rush on it, that does not mean have it to me by lunch time, it really means get it to me in 60 days and not 90 please.
Hell want some real outrage, many local police stations have unsolved rapes and other violent crimes where they do have possible DNA yet they still do not test because they just do not have the funds to do so.
