How will the future crime database work?

In this episode of Stuff You Should Know, Josh and Chuck dive into the fascinating and slightly unsettling world of crime prediction databases and DNA profiling. They explore how law enforcement agencies in the US and UK are building massive databases that could potentially predict who might commit crimes before they actually happen, drawing comparisons to the sci-fi thriller Minority Report. The hosts examine the privacy concerns, potential for abuse, and ethical questions surrounding these systems that collect DNA samples from people who've simply been arrested, not necessarily convicted of anything.
