Why is DNA fingerprint more conclusive when proving a person's innocence rather than their guilt?

ANS1:Because it is technically possible for more than one person to have a similar DNA fingerprint, but it is impossible for someone to have their DNA fingerprint change. So if your fingerprint is:XXYYXYXAnd the guilty persons DNA is:XXXXYYYIt is impossible for you to be the guilty person. But, it is possible that my DNA fingerprint is also XXXXYYY - so please don't commit any crimes near my house or I might get nailed for it.ANS2:DNA fingerprinting always has a margin of error. The error can introduce reasonable doubt. Guilt in a capital case must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt.


What does DNA fingerprint shows?

A DNA fingerprint refers to the fact that a person's DNA code is as unique to that person as his/her fingerprint. A person can be implicated for a crime or ruled out as the criminal based on his/her DNA code.
