That is interesting and I have heard of the capabilities to do this before. It does seem a bit harsh to target litter bugs with this technology but I guess this is a jumping off point for the project.
I would have like to have seen a "real life" picture of the person compared to what the DNA profile from the computer generated though.

I have seen at least one such comparison – and the picture didn’t look much like the model at all.
Family resemblance is the term thrown around, I think – and that may very well be. But even though I bear some kind of resemblance to my father, or my uncle, it’s too general to be any use as a tool for identification. I could easily use Google (or whatever) to come up with dozens of people who resemble my father, directly, more than I do myself.
Still – use the thing on the Zodiac DNA, and see if the result resembles the Stine sketch…
The ensuing debates would be…rage filled, I suspect.
