HB 670 -- DNA Profiling

Sponsor:  Burnett

Currently, any individual who has pled guilty to or been found
guilty of a sexual offense or has been determined to be a
sexually violent predator is required to provide a sample for DNA
profiling analysis upon entering or being released from a
Department of Corrections' reception and diagnostic center or any
detention facility, when acceptance of a person from another
state under an interstate compact is conditional on the person
providing a DNA sample, or if the individual is under the
jurisdiction of the department.

This bill expands the DNA profiling analysis testing to include
an individual who is arrested for a felony or sexual offense and
any juvenile who is adjudicated to have committed an act that
would be a felony if committed by an adult.  Individuals must
provide a sample upon entering or before being released from any
jail or detention facility following an arrest for a felony or
sexual offense or upon adjudication or release from the care,
custody, and control of a juvenile detention center.
