Apprehended! Hell yeah!

That’s because ballistic test takes about five minutes to compare. The DNA process takes a lot longer and that’s before you can even do a comparison.
I once dropped of a gun used in a crime and before I was 5 miles down the road they called to tell me the gun matched a double homicide from a previous incident.
Our lab won’t even do certain DNA testing. All depending on the crime and how the evidence was obtained. For example; if we see a suspect throw a gun they won’t do touch DNA. Their argument being that you have an officers eyewitness statement and testimony. Our argument is yes, but it would really cement our testimony especially since our credibility is always being attacked on the stand.
Nope, won’t do it. Due, to the volume, time, and expenditure.
