Forensic DNA analysis can be used to implicate or eliminate a suspect, solve cases that had previously been thought of as unsolvable, link evidence from different crime scenes, or aid in the identification of victims. The backlog in analyzing convicted offender samples is mainly caused by recent federal legislation that expanded the scope of DNA sample collection from violent convicted federal offenders to include anyone who commits a federal offense as well as non-U.S. citizens who are detained in the U.S. This review found issues that affect the FBI Lab¿s. ability to reduce the backlog.
