- Before DNA testing, prosecutors relied on less sophisticated forensic techniques, including microscopic hair analysis, to put criminals behind bars. But how reliable was hair analysis?

Excellent Doc Thank you......Retro Report
Thanks for watching!
I know many people who believe the hype they see in shows about the nearly infallible science behind forensics, they look at me like I had lobsters crawling out of my ears when I tell them how nightmarishly flawed it is.
Radioactive nucleotides or isotopes are illegal to use because the global damage done by nuclear technology requires that all nuclear technology be eliminated from use. The nuclear nonproliferation treaty enforcement and obligations refers to the global nuclear cascade and ozone cascade. We don't build develop or share nuclear technology. We don't contribute to the nuclear cascade or ozone cascade under the chemical weapon manufacture treaty enforcement and obligations..
The claim of unique precludes any ability to identify the person. If the analysis is as unique as they it also means they can not identify who it is.. They could say who it is not fairly certain but accurate depends on the algorithms or the ability to discriminate. A very large database can reveal some ideas of errors. The FBI database for fingerprints always comes back with tens of thousands of possibilities..The unique quality is only barely approached by finger prints. The algorithm is the limit. DNA testing is only seeing groups of genes broken at the high GC rich regions. It surprising that there is a difference.. They can not actually see genes but they see groups of genes. The location of a specific gene requires extensive comparison with people known not to have a specific gene and then only that group of genes can be identified. This is how bioluminescent genes were found and disease causing genes were found but we don't know exactly what genes are included in the group of genes located. A GC rich regions are groups of genes not a gene.
