They say the chance of a DNA sample randomly matching another person is less than one in a million, but they’ve got more than a million DNA samples in the database. So DNA is still pretty good, but if you get a DNA match for someone who doesn’t appear to have anything to do with the situation and you can’t find any links, it’s not unreasonable to think of randomness.

That’s because they use an outdated type of DNA test. For $99 (less during sales) anyone can get an autosomal DNA test from Ancestry or FamilyTreeDNA that absolutely will be unique. The state of the technology has moved well beyond what law enforcement uses.
