I agree that this makes the EFF look very bad. Persecuting rape is difficult enough as it is. I can't figure out any hypothetical example where this kind of identification testing could be abused without literally fabricating all sorts of additional evidence.

And if the rapist in this case was questioned as a subject, the police could have gotten a warrant for the DNA anyway.
