Detailed explanation-1: -When a suspect’s identity is unknown, law enforcement can enter the crime scene DNA profile into CODIS to see if it matches any other profiles that have been uploaded. Comparing a profile to others in CODIS can link crimes together and link suspects to a crime scene.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA is generally used to solve crimes in one of two ways. In cases where a suspect is identified, a sample of that person’s DNA can be compared to evidence from the crime scene. The results of this comparison may help establish whether the suspect committed the crime.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNA evidence is used to solve crimes in two ways: If a suspect is known, a sample of that person’s DNA can be compared to biological evidence found at a crime scene. The results of this comparison may then help establish whether the suspect was at the crime scene or whether he or she committed the crime.

Detailed explanation-5: -Crime Lab scientists analyze evidence and develop a DNA profile of a possible suspect. That DNA profile is used to search the DNA database, known as the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS). If the DNA sample searched against CODIS matches a DNA sample already in the database, that is known as a “hit.”
