Suffolk County Private Investigator - DNA Gathering and Use
DNA Gathering and Use
Posted by Suffolk County Private Investigator
The use of DNA as evidence has become very common in adoption and identification type cases. After carefully gathering the evidence, maintaining it's integrity is crucial. Properly indexing, packaging and maintaining the custody of evidence is necessary for this to be used in court or otherwise. Above all DNA must be safeguarded by proper processing in the correct containers, depending upon the type of DNA sample it is. And chain of custody procedures, well documented, must be used.
Most investigators are unaware of the proper procedures for gathering evidence, due to lack of experience. That's why we employ only experienced investigators from the ranks of law enforcement investigative units.
