HCS SCS SB 423 -- DNA PROFILING SYSTEM

This bill exempts traffic violation cases from the $15 surcharge
collected and deposited into the DNA Profiling Analysis Fund on
misdemeanor cases.  The bill also makes several technical changes
to the laws regarding the administration of the DNA profiling
system.  The bill clarifies that for those offenders required to
provide a DNA sample, the sample may be taken upon the inmate's
entering or before being released from a reception and diagnostic
center of the Department of Corrections, a county detention
facility, or any private detention facility under contract with
the state or a local governmental entity.  When an offender is in
the custody of a private facility, the sheriff's department of
the county assigned to the offender is responsible for the
collection of the DNA sample.
