If there is a strong body of evidence against a suspect, the courts can order them to provide a DNA sample. Once forensic scientists obtain a sample, they extract the DNA from cells in bodily fluids or tissues and copy it. They then separate the copied markers using a process known as capillary electrophoresis.
