The news stories below serve to illustrate the point that crime labs are not fool-proof.  Human errror can be a factor in laboratory analysis.  Generally contamination events and mix-ups are caught before the report goes out via a thorough technical review.  However, with lab workers maxed out in terms of the sheer number of cases they are asked to handle as well as pressure to decrease the ever-growing backlog of DNA cases, sometimes mistakes do slip through.  An independent review of the casework can be crucial to finding potential errors in a DNA case.
