Is it possible to stump a DNA test if you have a twin? Say one twin commits a crime and his or her DNA is brought up and tested, is it possible that the computer might bring up their siblings instead? Keep in mind I am speaking of identical twins.
We never really went over this in Biology class during my sophomore year and our recent talks of cloning raised a few questions.

If you conduct the test properly, no. There are different methods of DNA testing, and although the twins have similar DNA, they're not exact replicas. A computer should be able to differentiate between them.
