How DNA Solves Crimes
Description
For most of human history, identifying the person responsible for a crime depended on witnesses, confessions, fingerprints, and sometimes little more than suspicion.
Then, in the late 20th century, scientists developed a technique that could identify an individual from microscopic traces left behind at a crime scene.
It has cleared innocent suspects, identified killers decades after their crimes, and transformed modern forensic science.
Learn more about DNA profiling, how it works, and how it revolutionized criminal investigations on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
