DNA Is Clue to 1971 Murder: A recent, random test links a state prison inmate to the old El Dorado case. January 10, 2003 DNA Clue Cracks Open Unsolved 1979 Slaying: Colorado felon charged in San Pablo girl's death. December 4, 2002 S.F. Transient Held in Rapes of Homeless Women: DNA match led to suspect. October 19, 2002 DNA links felon to rape: The arrest marks the 100th match in state database. August 23, 2002 DNA links parolee to old rape case: Database helps authorities score 'cold hit' on suspect in attack. August 21, 2002 DNA yields arrest warrant in 1978 killing. August 14, 2002

The analyst will simply submit the items for DNA analysis, using the final data interpretation step to determine relevance to the ongoing investigation... The bottleneck becomes the interpretation of analytical results and the technical review process.... Although these processes are currently dependent upon manual applications, software solutions are emerging that can be integrated into an automated approach.

Generate STR Data UK National DNA Database Person reviews a fraction of the data TrueAllele expert system scores all STR data and assesses data quality

Validation Method 1. Obtain original data 2. Process data in TrueAllele™ ES (auto-setup, process run, Q/A, (auto-setup, process run, Q/A, call alleles, apply rules, check) call alleles, apply rules, check) computer: accept/reject/edit computer: accept/reject/edit 3. Review all data one person, many computers one person, many computers human: accept/reject/edit human: accept/reject/edit 4. Generate results & stats

Validation Results Computer: ~85% data, no review needed Human: Designations are correct TrueAllele expert system can eliminate most human review of STR DNA data
