I don't understand. Anyone seeing photos of the aftermath can see human DNA all over the sidewalk and street. Pieces of the bomb went into the air, some parts passed through many people and all ultimately came to rest on the street, sidewalk, window sills, etc. As parts came to rest in pools of blood, they would have acquired DNA.

So my question is, how is the female DNA on bomb piece(s) significant? Obviously if it is a fingerprint on fragments from each bomb that is significant because no innocent bystander would have handled bomb parts several blocks apart but I didn't know DNA could be obtained from a fingerprint.

There is technology to get DNA from fingerprints. I don’t know if it has been developed enough to use.

The fact is that the wife could have bought the pressure cooker but STILL not be an accomplice.

It could be they are thinking someone was injured while testing the device or putting it together.

Maybe this is just thrown out there to see what scatters once it hits the media.
