I suppose but the presence of DNA is not the nail in the coffin as far as "whodunnit" is concerned.

I thought this was going to be a thread about CSI (the TV show) and its decline since Grissom left.

He's an FBI agent working the hardest cases. She's an overworked copy-editor trying to make ends meet. Together, they fight crime!

Not sure how well it'll translate to the inevitable tv show, but it's a cool way to catch people.
