"or a rape and kidnap case will your lawyer notify you if they found any dna"
I'm not sure what the laws are about the evidence available.
"can it be a year or two late"
DNA testing is a lot faster than that. A few years ago, it took a few weeks. Nowadays I think it takes even less.
"and what is dna"
I could write a whole book on that subject. Basically, it's a chemical contained in every single cell which contains the "designs" for every part of your body. Without it, your cells wouldn't work. Now every person's DNA is different, so if I find a sample of DNA, I can tell who it's from.
For instance, suppose someone is killed. I find the dead man's blood on the suspect's shoe. I can then use DNA to prove it's the dead man's blood.
It's not the amount of DNA you find that proves you're guilty, but exactly what it is you find. A crime may be proved by a single drop of blood or a hair in some cases. In others, all the hair in the world wouldn't matter.
For instance, a single drop of semen is all you need to prove a rape case. But if you find the victim's hair in the suspect's house, all that proves is that the suspect was in the house at some point.
