Some states havent enacted extensions that would make the difference in the ability to prosecute or not. Sad but true, you could have DNA proving guilt but the stupid S.O.L. would let them go free unless the charges included murder or assault.</p> http://www.gothamist.com/2005/04/27/cold_case_file_cracks_case_in_nyc_and_elsewhere.php#comment-49296 http://www.gothamist.com/2005/04/27/cold_case_file_cracks_case_in_nyc_and_elsewhere.php#comment-49296 Comments Wed, 27 Apr 2005 10:43:18 -0500 <p>Knowing Jen's affection for L&O, this reminds me of an svu episode where a murder suspect that's also a doctor uses a patient's blood so that he turns up negative on a paternity test....problem is, turns out the patient is a pedophile and the blood matches dna they'd long ago collected from victims! of course, stabler and benson initially think the doctor is the pedophile, but the truth is eventually sorted out. </p>
