In other words, one crime committed could lead to an > arrest. No wondering. That doesn't require a DNA database. We already have the option of DNA testing crime scene evidence. (I even worry about that because it's the kind of evidence that seems so strong that people will tend to assume it's perfect.) The difference the database would make is that the fuzz would be able to take samples from the crime scene and have the computer tell them who their suspects should be. That's not necessary nor is it a good idea. It ranks right alongside fingerprinting children. How would you like it if, on their first day of school, your kids were fingerprinted on the assumption they might one day commit a crime?
