Let's say the Cornpone PD was faced with a string of unsolved rapes, some involving truly disgusting acts, and lots of violence.
Let's say they arrested someone, and send DNA belonging to the rapist found at a crime scene to a lab.
Let's say the lab identifies the DNA as belonging to the person arrested.
Let's say the crime lab is wrong.
Is there some interest served by putting the arrested person in jail, even though he's not the rapist?
Or is there some interest in catching the right guy?
Idiot. |

If the deal compromises integrity (or even just appears that way), CNN shouldn't sign on to it.
