PSA Script

Every year in America nearly 6,000 killers get away with murder. Approximately 185,000 killings went unsolved from 1980 to 2008. Although crime seems to be inevitable, there is a technological advancement that ensures conviction of criminals as well as significantly reducing crime rates. Properly executed, a National DNA Database of criminals would increase conviction of the guilty and protect the innocent. The database would store genetic information of every arrested citizen of the United States in one place and would be accessible to law enforcement agencies across state lines.

Senior Capstone Project

For my project, I am proposing the idea of a National DNA Database. I will be creating a website that covers the pros and cons of such a major issue, as well as providing factual information and interactive activities. Once the project is done, the website will continually be updated with new information and hopefully one day actually become a reality.This idea applies to two of the Triple Bottom Line goals. The first is Social because ideally crime would be reduced and that would restore social well-being. The second is Economic because with reduced crime, less money would have to be spent on jail systems and jobs would also be created.
