A recent Washington Times article, boasts that Texas law enforcement used predictive DNA imaging or Phenotyping to guess what a suspects physical characteristics might be.
This is not a joke, this is actually happening in police departments across the country.
Parabon Nanolabs, claims their new analysis service can accurately predict what a suspect or victim looks like based on a sample of their DNA.
DNA phenotyping from crime scenes is fraught with many issues, like low quantities of viable DNA, which usually means they can only be tested once. How DNA samples are stored and kept are also an issue.
Other issues include things like degradation due to light, heat or moisture, cross contamination etc. Not only that but crime scenes could be hours or days old and are from from pristine laboratory conditions that produce accurate DNA results.

Clearly, phenotypying Snapshots leave a lot to be desired. But that still does not explain why fifty-three police departments are using them to arrest people. Of those fifty-three, twenty-nine police departments have used Parabons Snapshot multiple times.
According to a 2017, NY Times article, law enforcement is exploiting a loophole that allows them to to use Snaphot.
Deputy Chief Emanuel J. Katranakis, the commander of the Forensic Investigation Division claims, law enforcement doesnt need state approval to use Snapshot because they are not using it to identify specific individuals.
Finding loopholes to use another government funded profiling system is just one more reason to overhaul our broken justice system.
This is not a joke, this is actually happening in police departments across the country.
Of course it is. There is not ONE single human in the police and court "chain of command" that will EVER be personally held liable for any deaths,injuries,bankruptcies,job losses,or divorces that result from this.
The only humans that will suffer are their victims,and they flat don't give a damn who they harm as long as there is court and fine money coming down the pipeline to them.
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
