The same options hold true if you can't find the owner of a DNA string using a Medical Records console, save that (essentially) nobody deletes their own Medical Records. In almost every case, an unidentifiable string of DNA belongs to a humanized monkey from Genetics. | The same options hold true if you can't find the owner of a DNA string using a Medical Records console, save that (essentially) nobody deletes their own Medical Records.

If you find one pair of prints on a damning detail and no glove fibers, you've most likely got a catch. Set the individual to Arrest, update their security record, and inform Security over your radio. Even if you only have suspicion, or you can't arrest someone based on forensic evidence, still inform Security and append the Notes section to indicate what you've discovered. | If you find one pair of prints on a damning detail and no glove fibers, you've most likely got a catch.

Generally, uniform fibers can be used to do station-wide searches if the shift is slow enough, but you shouldn't base a sentencing off something so trivial. It's easy for any criminal who wants to throw you off to put on a disguise before they commit their nefarious deeds. Sentencing the single [[Assistant]] on board for theft based on grey jumpsuit fibers makes little sense when the uniform is freely accessible in the [[Locker Room]]. | |||
Blood DNA can be used to identify victims if no body was recovered OR if the body is unidentifiable. In most cases, the latter is because the body is husked, which is either caused by excessive burn or a [[Changeling]]. | Blood DNA can be used to identify victims if no body was recovered OR if the body is unidentifiable.
