Abstract

The present monographic work has as its theme the origin and evolution of the genetic profiles database, in particular, the National Bank of Genetic Profiles, created and regulated through Law nº 12.654/12 and Decree nº 7.950/13. It’s objective is to analyze the origin of genetic profile banks, also called DNA banks, and their importance in helping to solve criminal investigations, as well as analyzing the emergence and evolution of the National Bank of Genetic Profiles. In this context, the problem to be faced consists of the following question: is the usefulness of the National Bank of Genetic Profiles in solving crimes positive enough to justify a future expansion of the list of crimes, whose DNA collection is mandatory? To perform this task, the method used is the deductive method. The methodological procedure used is the deductive, subsidized by the historical method. As results, it can be said that the evidences obtained by means of genetic profiles are quite consistent and precise, serving as a relevant instrument to do justice and avoid the conviction of innocents in criminal proceedings.
