Yup. Though, in a case like this it only serves as a clue, not evidence itself. The evidence is the match of suspect’s own DNA with that found at the crime scene.
One of my bros is into this stuff and has done a lot of “DNA triangulating” to make connections .
Also, everyone should be required, or at least strongly encouraged, to video tape their entire lives and upload the recordings on a continuous basis to the cloud for current or future viewing by the appropriate authorities.
This can only be a help to every individual and society as a whole.
Those engaged in illegal behavior can be found out more quickly before they do themselves and others more harm.
Those engaged in legal but unhealthful behavior can be recommended to the appropriate care providers for counseling and treatment.
Those who are living legal and healthy lives have nothing to worry about as their lives should be lived as an open book.

You have no expectation of privacy when you rape 12 and kill 50.
