Some people argue that new science should use for such as criminal forensics should be used to solve at old cases. Even though it seems to pursuable presumable, but, for me, I partially agree and disagree about using this technology for finding criminals at of old cases.
The developed technology related to criminal forensics has some advantages in terms of society. Firstly, this technology helps police to find real culprits and punish them, it can lead to reducing the crime rate because people will have the awareness that anyone who did a crime will be caught by the police. Secondly, I believe this technology also can be used to clear the name, For example, thanks to developed technology in forensics, if a real culprit was caught by the police, and a person who was wrongfully imprisoned could clear the name and get a huge subsidy from the government. Consequently, this positive circulation makes society more clear, reliable and safe in terms of only positive effects on new science about forensics.
Even though there are positive effects using this technology for finding real criminals, I highly believe this kind of science should be used for better mankind regardless of the possibility of discovering the real criminal. If we use the whole effort to solve problems such as helping cancer patients in the medical field or sustainable development, it will be more useful in respect of whole humans because actually, we are having a more challenging situation such as global warming so we need to focus to solve solving this kind of top priority assignment rather than solving old cases. Also for other reasons, new science related to criminal forensics will be used for judging crime, but we can’t trust 100 % of the consequences of new science because the science’s consequence can be changed depending on many situations, and the opposite new technology to hide the crime will be developed at the same time. Therefore, it is more reasonable to make more effort to better mankind rather than finding a real criminal.
In conclusion, using new science for finding real criminals seems to have advantages partially, but for me, I believe that using this technology can be useful for other industries equally at the same time.
