For that to work, the person's DNA would have to already be in the system, right? All he has to do is never get arrested for anything for the rest of his life... It's doable, I'm 38 and I've never been arrested

Not necessarily. If a close relative has had a DNA test and they can gain access to their database, they could probably use that.

Being arrested doesn't mean they take your DNA either.
It generally has to be a serious felony. Some places also don't take your DNA until convicted.
