Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a person convicted of, found delinquent for, institutionalized
for, or declared registered sex offenders due to committing, felonies or certain other
misdemeanors are generally required to provide a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
sample to the state crime laboratories for analysis and inclusion in the Department
of Justice (DOJ) DNA database. Under current law, a person who is required to
provide a DNA sample must provide it as follows:
1. A person sentenced to prison or a juvenile correctional facility must provide
the DNA sample while in prison or the facility, as directed by the Department of
Corrections (DOC). If the person does not provide the DNA sample while in prison
or the facility, then he or she must provide the DNA sample as soon as practicable
after release at a sheriff's office, except if directed otherwise by the person's
supervising agent.

2. A person placed on probation by a court in this state must provide the DNA
sample as soon as practicable after placement at the sheriff's office, except if directed
otherwise by the person's supervising agent.
3. A person placed on parole or probation in this state from another state, if
directed by DOC to provide a DNA sample, must provide the DNA sample, as soon
as practicable after release at the office of the county sheriff, except if directed
otherwise by the person's supervising agent.
4. A juvenile placed on supervision shall provide the DNA sample as soon as
practicable after placement at the sheriff's office, except if directed otherwise by the
agency providing supervision.
5. A person sentenced to jail or a county house of corrections must provide the
DNA sample as directed by the sheriff as soon as practicable after sentencing; and
if the person does not provide the biological specimen while in jail or the house of
corrections, as soon as practicable after release at a sheriff's office.
6. A person committed to the Department of Health Services must provide the
DNA sample as directed by that department.
7. If none of the above applies, the person must provide the DNA sample as soon
as practicable after the obligation to provide a DNA sample arises at the sheriff's
office, except if directed otherwise by the agency providing supervision or having
custody of the person.
Under this bill, when a person is found delinquent or found not guilty by reason
of mental disease or defect, sentenced, declared a sexual predator, or placed into
custody or on probation for a crime that requires the person to submit a DNA sample,
the court must place the person in the custody of the sheriff immediately after the
sentencing or placement hearing for a time sufficient to provide the sample. The bill
requires DOJ to promulgate rules for the collecting of samples by sheriffs.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
