From the Paper:
"Recent cases suggest that DNA fingerprinting evidence is slowly becoming accepted by the courts; first in civil suits and then in criminal cases. A New York trial court found that because of the enormous reliability and acceptability of DNA fingerprinting in criminal courts, it would revolutionize the administration of criminal justice, reducing to insignificance the standard alibi defense.1The reliability of the theory behind DNA analysis is not disputed. DNA analysis has proven itself reliable in the realm of genetic research. However, unless a standard which sets requirements for more than general acceptance of only the theory underlying DNA profiling, the courts are able to ignore the shortcomings of the various techniques when applied to samples acquired from a crime scene.2"
