I can see the abuse but what if this actually worked in a best case scenario? So dna is found say from a rape and that DNA is used to create a image of the person and then they find that person and then do DNA tests to match them. The image is not used as evidence but used to find the person. Honestly it seems like a good use, if it's limited to that.
I can't follow your reasoning. What if they picked a person at random and it was actually the perpetrator, so it actually worked in a best case scenario?
