[Publius6961]

Imagine if you were accused of a crime and the people who could alibi you were now dead or had no recollection of the time in question.

All that might have been reasonable and rational 40 years ago, absent any hope of alternative credible evidence, but irrelevant if your DNA evicence is all over victims of violent crimes.

DNA by itself does not provide any context. I could sneak into your house, collect your DNA, and spread it all over a victim of a violent crime, and they’d find you guilty by your rationale.
