412 criminal cases reviewed after DNA test lab error!!

Confuseous

An error inn a government laboratory resulted in the solution used in DNA testing in criminal cases to be 10 times stronger than it should have been.

As a result, 412 cases had to be reviewed, and the AG's Chambers now wants DNA tests in 87 of the cases to be redone. But the government yesterday also gave the assurance that the mistake has not resulted in anyone being wrongly convicted. "There was no possibility of falsely indicating any DNA profile that was not there."

Explaining what happened, the government official said the manager in charge "a very experienced employee of 30 years" had "misread the label."

Correction, It was "an honest mistake" :p

>Explaining what happened, the government official said the manager in charge "a very experienced employee of 30 years" had "misread the label.">

If the label says "Chee Soon Juan or " Yap......" I am very sure, the government official with only 1 mth of experience & the font size is 1, can read it very clearly.:biggrin:

So many cases done by one manager "misread the label"? What about other lab technicians? Are they FTs who can't read English?

10 x stronger...? Can alter certain DNA (remove certain strains) right? so how many rape cases wrongly pin-pointed?
How many burglary / murder cases wrongly id?

They said, no mistakes involving capital cases...who knows?

Even so, wrong imprisonment is bad enough, imagine being imprisoned for something you did not do...fuck

From what I understand, reagent is to show up the DNA profile, not to alter them. Any reagent that can alter DNA should not even be used in the first place.

In any case, no one will get jailed or convicted based on DNA alone. If it is that simple, our poodles can go lar kopi and wait for lab test result. Don't need to investigate liao. I fuck a girl, she cries rape, my semen found, so must be rape? I visit your house, I left and someone came to murder you. My DNA found the on cup you offered me drink, so I am the murderer. Cannot be right?

can if they find it too difficult to find the real culprit. u would be the convenient one to close the case.
