DNA as Exculpatory Evidence

It seems from this story that DNA can be used as evidence to get you out of jail for a crime that you didn't commit, but it can't stop you from having to pay child support for a child you never met from a woman you never impregnated. Ludicrous.
But family law attorney Jenny Skoble disagrees, contending the child’s needs should take precedence over the adult’s rights.

"The harm done to the child from being left without a father and without support is greater than the harm done to the man who has to pay support for a child that’s not biologically his," Skoble said.
Ludicrous.
