Integrative Program of Unknown Suspect Sexual Assault Case Analysis in North Louisiana

摘要

The goal of this project to facilitate the investigation of sexual assaults in which a suspect was not identified by the victim (i.e., unknown suspect sexual assault). The first objective was to develop the capacity routinely analyze these cases and enter the forensic DNA profile data into the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS). The second objective was to accumulate DNA profiles from suspects and local arrestees in order to build up a local database of individual DNA profiles for entry into CODIS and to compare the individual profiles with the forensic DNA profiles from the casework.
