I also think they shouldn’t be allowed to keep fingerprints after a case is dismissed or a person is found not guilty; or else the fingerprints should be filed with the evidence in the case, and not accessable without a search warrant.

A national DNA data base is the ultimate invasion of privacy..deal with it.
