“The proof of the DNA has served for exculpar in a lot of cases and no only to incriminate, because for this last option take into account other proofs”, has ensured the public prosecutor of the High court Manuel-Jesús Dolz Lake during his exhibition on “DNA and fundamental rights”, inside the course of summer “Test scientific, DNA and penal process” that has realised in the UJI this week.

For the magistrate the taking of biological traces is not a statement of culpability, because in his no attentive opinion against the fundamental right of not declaring against himself same, equating it to the proof of alcoholemia. “They have to take into account the fundamental rights of the person accused, but also do effective the protection of the fundamental rights of the victims”.

The public prosecutor has showed adherent that they are the legislators and no the judges the attendants to articulate the norm, in reference to some sentences that have propiciado different interpretations of the valid legislation, as for example if in the request of consent for the proof, the person accused has to be assisted or no by letrado and if a court order approving the proof has or no a coercive value.

Dolz Lake, the one who during some years has formed part of the Commission for the Forensic Use of the DNA and the databases, has explained the legislation establishes a series of limitations for the use of the biological traces, like the principle of proporcionalidad (that it was adapted for the end that wishes obtain) or in grave crimes that involve upper prison to 5 years, between others. And that establishes a series of conditionings like that it was DNA no codificante (identity and sex); that it realise a proof no invasiva like the frotis buccal or that exist a consent informed.

Finally, the public prosecutor has indicated that since from the entrance in force of the Organic Law 10/2007, regulatory of police database on identifiers obtained from the DNA, that establishes a police model for the compilation and custody of the data, and until the year 2011 have esclarecido 7.500 crimes (581 rapes, 454 homicides and 51 acts of terrorism).
