Let's just say that REAL scientists and REAL law enforcement, rarely have the patience to watch specious programs like CSI, they are not fooled when the buzzword DNA is casually thrown around.
I'm more worried about JURIES, though, which are far more likely to be Law and Order/ CSI/ House addicts
than Scientists, and these are the people who declare the findings of a trial.
God help us.What are some cons to having DNA figure so prominently in pop-culture?
DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid ) is the vehicle of heredity . The name is enough as it is the basis of existence of all organisms.
The use of scientific equipments and the theory concerned is what causes such legal jurisdictions and cases.
Sometimes the theories and practices are against the ethics.What are some cons to having DNA figure so prominently in pop-culture?
I have read articles about cases being dropped because some members of the jury thought they should have done testing like in C.S.I. or Law %26amp; Order.
What people fail to realize is that A) Not all labs have every piece of state-of-the-art equipment B) Testing is very expensive and C) Testing takes a LOT of time.
