POLICE will screen the DNA of almost 2,000 people in a bid to find the killer of a Hampshire grandmother, the Daily Echo can reveal.
Detectives will next week begin taking mouth swabs from dozens of men to compare against a DNA profile they believe belongs to the murderer of Georgina Edmonds.
The 77-year-old widow was tortured and bludgeoned to death in her cottage.

And I would like to expect that those found having no involvement in the case would have the DNA samples destroyed. But will they? Or is this just a ploy to build up a data base even further? I would refuse to have mine taken without written response that it will be destroyed, or await my arrest for refusing, and a court test case. Cue response from the ' those who have nothing to fear ....' brigade

You're right though, much better to have murderers, rapists etc on the streets, than identified on a database and dealt with accordingly. Re-cue the 'infringement of my human rights' bunch.

Its not going to get a result anyway. The person who did it will avoid it like the plague. Logical really.
