A bill for an act relating to criminal investigation, including the extension of DNA submission requirements to persons arrested for a felony or aggravated misdemeanor, and making appropriations to support the investigation of cold cases.

This bill requires individuals arrested for felony or aggravated misdemeanor crimes to submit DNA samples for profiling, expanding current law that only applied to convicted individuals. It also establishes a process allowing people to request removal of their DNA from the database if their case was dismissed, charges were dropped, or no charges were filed within one year of arrest. Additionally, the bill allocates $600,000 annually starting July 2026 from the general fund to support the investigation and prosecution of cold cases.
