Sandi and her boyfriend, Raul Pelig, had been accused of robbing a city jeweler at his small shop. At the time of the robbery, the female robber had a respiratory cold, and she sneezed into a tissue and wiped her mouth
The female robber left the tissue at the scene which allowed evidence technicians to obtain a DNA sample. The actual robbers left fingerprints on the jeweler's counter and following Sandi and Raul Pelig's arrest, evidence experts noted a match between the booking fingerprints of Sandi and Raul Pelig and the ones take from the crime scene. The jeweler identified both Sandi and Raul Pelig as the robbers from a lineup conducted following their arrest. The grand jury has ordered Sandi to give a DNA sample to compare with the DNA from the tissue. Sandi and Raul Pelig would like to suppress all of the evidence on grounds that to use the evidence would violate their privilege against self-incrimination and Sandi contends that she should not have to give a DNA sample. From analysis of the rules concerning the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, A) Sandi cannot be forced to help the prosecution by giving the grand jury a DNA sample from her mouth. B) Sandi can be forced to offer her DNA for comparison purposes and the evidence of her fingerprint match from the store will be admissible at her trial. C) both Sandi and Raul can lawfully refuse to help the jeweler identify them at a lineup since that would indicate that they were being forced to help the prosecution gather evidence to convict them. D) Sandi cannot be forced to help the prosecution by giving the grand jury a DNA sample since that would help convict her by using her own evidence against her. E) none of the above mentioned items of evidence can be introduced against the pair of defendants without violating the privilege against self-incrimination.
