You have nothing to fear????????

Lets just do a little arithmetic then shall we. Lets say we have a 10 marker match. The boffins will call this a billion to one chance of a false match. Now lets have a database of 4 million samples. Ooops I make that a 250/1 chance of getting a false match from the database.


Still have nothing to fear????

It is only the circumstances of the taking of the samples that have allowed her to have them removed. If the Police had taken the samples before the CPS decided there was no case then (while she was still in proper custody) the samples could have been kept. The same applies to her claim for assault and illegal imprisonment. The CPS had already said she was not a suspect so the Police had no right to take her dabs and DNA (Assault) and had no right to bang her up.

Why the fuss? If she has done nothing wrong then she has nothing to worry about.

Everyone's DNA and other biometrics should be on file.

I would have no problem with a file of that type being kept if I hade been convicted. We live in a state that says you are innocent until proven guilty. If you keep the biometrics of innocent people, then are you not saying that they are innocent until proven guilty but I bet they have something to hide.

Maybe she's not worried, but angry. If only criminals' DNA is on file, then if you're not a criminal you should be able to insist that yours not be; even if you have nothing to worry about it being on file.

Buy a four pack of Stella from Tesco. That should see you through the first hour.

this ruling has really made my day.

I will celebrate with a pint of lager on the train back up t'north tonight (with the prices that GNER charge for a can of beer one has to keep it to special occasions only)

Scary

Her legal team, headed by barrister Mary McKeone, lodged the judicial review challenge claiming the decision to take the samples breached the terms of the 1984 Police and Criminal Evidence Act.

Read and discuss. Not convicted so should have all Fingerprints and DNA evidence destroyed.
