Overview
- A Yonkers woman is suing Winn Health Labs and DNA Diagnostics Centre after a paternity test error led her to abort her 20-week pregnancy.
- The labs, citing an IT malfunction, admitted months later that the test results were incorrect, revealing her fiancé was the biological father.
- The woman, now in therapy, claims the delay in notifying her of the mistake caused irreversible harm, including the end of her relationship.
- DNA Diagnostics Centre, which has conducted over 20 million tests, defends its reputation, stating it acts promptly when issues arise.
- The case raises broader concerns about the reliability of DNA testing in life-altering decisions and the accountability of laboratories.
