While ago in a high profile case defense lawayers produced DNA sample of the defendent, stating the sample is unique for 1 against 3 billions human. Now another high profile case child's DNA is used to validate the father child relationship. so what happened to 3 billons unique human sample. May be it works in diffierently if you shout louder. wow wow lol lol.

What is your point?
1) In case one the word unique was used.
2) In case two the word validate was used.

These are not mutually exclusive nor contradict each other.

Do you know anything about genetics? A child gets half their DNA from each parent. And in the case of a boy, the Y chromosome comes from the father (females don't have a Y chromosome), so they will be practically identical.

This allows you to compare the DNA and determine whether it's possible or likely that the man is the father.

Hi hi BARMAR, thought about the process u describe for identifying relationship but i think that is making a BOILER Maker not a DNA Pprocess. DNA sample could be extracted from dead person too.

Umm, shubi....I never did ask.

Just exactly what is it that you smoke when you step outside? ;)
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?
So many experts, not enough X cards.
