Oh, no mistake - It works exactly the way they intend it.
Neither Assange nor his accuser deny that they had sex. They just disagree over how consensually they had sex.
What, exactly, do they hope to prove from a DNA test?
Now, I suppose it would certainly put quite an interesting spin on all this if it turns out Assange didn't have sex with her, but other than that totally-out-there possibility, what other use could they have for his DNA?
Ah, that last, mostly rhetorical question brings out the paranoid anti-government side of me. What other use could they have? "Hey, check it out, we "found" his DNA in hundreds of previously-unprocessed-for-decades rape kits from the US!" And just like that, the US would have direct standing to extradite him.
