It is because DNA can be found in almost all crimes, like a bank robbery. It's left in many forms, like a hair falling off or handprints. The investigators simply run the sample through the machines, and the computer will try to find DNA matches. This way, they don't arrest the wrong person. The machine does fail, sometimes.

When was the DNA database created?
2005
When was the first database used?
The creation of the first DNA criminal investigative database was in 1995 in Britain.
Tool used to identify organisms already classified by taxonomists?
DNA barcoding is a tool used to identify organisms that have already been classified by taxonomists. This technique involves comparing a short, standardized gene sequence from an organism's DNA to a reference database to determine its species. DNA barcoding can help quickly and accurately identify organisms, especially when traditional morphological characteristics are not sufficient.
What powerful database that moved from FBI to business?

Which database tool is required for establishing relationships?

How does DNA relate to crime investigation?
DNA has been called the fingerprints of today. DNA records are kept of people arrested today in most areas in the US. A Federal database is used to maintain this. In combination with DNA obtained at a crime scene, the DNA database or DNA testing of a suspect provides proof of a connection as a part of the investigation.
What helps to solve crimes because no two people have the same DNA except identical twins?
DNA analysis is a powerful tool in solving crimes because each person's DNA is unique, except for identical twins who share the same DNA. By comparing DNA evidence found at a crime scene to that of a suspect or a database, forensic analysts can link individuals to the scene and provide important evidence in legal proceedings.

Is everybody's DNA in the crime database?
No, everybody's DNA is not in the DNA database. CODIS (which is the U.S.A.'s DNA database) only contains DNA samples from individuals who have been convicted of certain crimes, individuals who have been arrested on felony charges, missing persons, and unidentified bodies. Different states have different rules for deciding who's DNA goes into the database. All fifty states take DNA samples from people convicted of major felonies, such as sexual assault and homicide. Forty-seven of the fifty states take DNA samples from everyone who has been convicted of a felony. Some states, such as California, take DNA from everyone who is arrested. Some states take DNA from everyone who has been convicted of a crime, even a misdemeanor crime.
What federal agency is responsible for managing the database of DNA profile?
FBI
How are genetic markers used by law enforcement?
Genetic markers, i.e. DNA types, are placed in a national, statewide, or local database, collectively called CODIS. All crime labs with access to the database use the same core markers whereby DNA types can be compared. The DNA type of an nameless suspect in a sexual assault case in CA, say, can be added to the database and compared to the DNA types of convicted offenders entered in other locations. If the DNA type of an offender 'matches' the DNA type of the suspect, the entering labs are notified. Another sample is obtained from the named offender and compared directly to the DNA type of suspect in the sexual assault case. If the 'match' is confirmed, the offender becomes the suspect... There are plenty of rules about who can enter DNA profiles, what crimes qualify to get an offender into the database, who cannot be entered into the database, etc. Typically local/state crime labs do the bulk of both the suspect and convicted offender DNA typing, but the database is managed by the FBI.
