Law Enforcement DNA Amendments

Removed the provision that required sheriffs to collect DNA specimens from individuals booked for misdemeanor offenses described in Title 76, Chapter 5, Offenses Against the Individual.

Retained and clarified the rule allowing DNA specimens to be processed 60 days after an arrest warrant is issued, provided the warrant was issued after booking and remains outstanding.

Removed detailed text regarding the effective date section and specific amendment references to Section 53-10-403, as the bill now only targets Section 53-10-404.5.

Added a House Sponsor line and a timestamp indicating the bill's progression to Substitute #1.

Fee payment is now limited to convictions of class A misdemeanors or felony-level offenses, rather than any conviction, narrowing who must pay the $150 fee.

DNA specimen processing is now restricted to cases involving felony-level offenses, requiring binding over, waiver of preliminary hearing, or indictment specifically for felonies.

The condition for processing DNA 60 days after an arrest warrant was clarified to apply only when the warrant remains outstanding, removing ambiguity about recalled warrants.

Several formatting and structural changes were made to align the bill text with standard legislative markup conventions, including renumbering of subsections and improved clarity in highlighted provisions.

Added new code section 53-10-406 establishing bureau responsibilities for DNA specimen analysis, storage, and destruction procedures.

Added prosecutor notification requirement to the bill's highlighted provisions regarding DNA destruction rights.

Changed House Sponsor name from 'LONG TITLE' to 'Steve Eliason'.

Updated formatting and page numbering to reflect the new substitute bill structure.
