I swear, every time I visit reddit I find something that makes me sigh in disgust.  Apparently, the degree to which a person’s genetic profile (which is an extremely small sample of your overall genetic makeup) is unique has been called into question by research performed on the FBIs national DNA database called CODIS.  It’s not the fact that DNA evidence isn’t as bulletproof as the FBI has claimed, it’s the actions of the agency in attempting to prevent any such research into the matter that has me steamed.  The LA Times article linked to on reddit shows just how far the FBI was willing to go to protect their flawed assertions about the reliability of the information in their database.
