That's is basically what happened in the GSK case. They figured out who to investigate by finding partial matches in relatives.
They still needed at a point to get his DNA to conform he was the person. His DNA wasn't there.
I informed my close relatives that I was getting my DNA done. We are not thieves or killers so are not afraid of having our DNA out there. Many other relatives have now done DNA testing, we are not problematic people, we have little to worry about. My grandkids know that there DNA can lead to them getting caught if they do anything really bad, so that kind of forces them to think about what they are doing and might help to persuade them from doing bad stuff. It might keep your kids from doing things because they have an increased chance of getting caught.
Isn't it better to dissuade someone becoming a criminal rather than protecting them after they do a crime?
It might be a better idea to ask the Great Great Grandchildren you will likely never see EXACTLY HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT YOU OR SOME OTHER FAMILY CLOWN GIVING THEIR PERSONAL DNA PROFILE TO THE PUBLIC DOMAIN...….they do get a say in all of this PRESUPTIOUS behaviour that concerns their DNA don't they?....you are giving away a right to privacy they own but have not yet been able to experience....ARE YOU NOT?
This does pose a serious fourth amendment issue. Police should not be allowed to throw a broad fishing net out there and we what they can drag up. The there are also big questions regarding chain of custodians consent of people who were entered into a database by family members in paternity cases.

You're giving up your DNA all the time and there's nothing you can do about it.

Using the genetic apps has helped everyone identify problems that we can use to adjust diet to avoid future chronic illnesses and deficiencies and metabolic problems. I spent a lot of time researching things and it is working for those who will accept that they cannot properly metabolize some herbs and food chemistries without complications. So I will have some great grandkids. On top of that, my grandkids have less of a chance of being in trouble, and if one kills someone, they belong in prison. Metabolic intolerance can lead to delusional thinking which can land a person in the slammer
I can try to disuade my offspring from being criminals, no law says I cannot try to make them honest and harmless people.
Maybe you should look at what you said, you are saying it is your kids right to be criminals. They do not have to worry if they are honest people who would not hurt others.

too late once they have a DNA sample it can be reproduced
they can put anyones DNA anywhere they want to already..
they can have all of mine they want, I'm old, rich, and have no children..

Not freely, via a scientific process..if they want it, they have to collect it, I'm not giving it up to some companies database.
Just wait till insures deny medical coverage based on ones DNA..I guess by that point it's over anyway.

Don't have to be willingly all the same or even knowingly.
A trumped-up charge is enough for them to require a sample, or they could simply go through your trash and come away with a pube or two.
As to the validity of the sample, well it's as valid as "They" want it to be.
