Should a victim's DNA be used against her as evidence of another crime?

My own leanings aside, this one seems like a juicy issue with two sides.

I get privacy rights, but I also get the interests of society in convicting criminals and not allowing the law to be "abused."

My gut feeling is, we shouldn't let guilty people go free just because they may have been victims in the past, but it kind of raises the question of whether a victim of a crime should report it to an indifferent and impartial deep state that might someday later use it against her.

I don't see why not. Who cates how they find someone guilty of crime they committed as long as it's authentic.
