AB990,1,2
1An Act to amend 973.047 (1f) of the statutes;
relating to: deoxyribonucleic acid
2testing of criminals.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, any person who is sentenced or placed on probation for
conviction of a felony (a crime for which a person may be sentenced to prison) must
provide a biological specimen to the state crime laboratories for deoxyribonucleic
acid (DNA) analysis. The crime laboratories must analyze the DNA in such
specimens and store DNA profiles from the specimens in the crime laboratories' DNA
data bank. The crime laboratories may compare DNA samples from a variety of
sources to the DNA profiles in the data bank and may provide information from such
comparisons to law enforcement agencies for criminal investigations. If a person
provides proof that a court has reversed, set aside, or vacated the conviction for which
the person was required to provide a biological specimen, the crime laboratories must
expunge from the data bank any information concerning the person and destroy any
remaining biological specimen from the person.
This bill requires that any person who is sentenced or placed on probation for
conviction of a fourth-degree sexual assault or the crime of exposing oneself to a child
or causing a child to expose himself or herself must provide a biological specimen to
the crime laboratories. The bill requires the crime laboratories to analyze the
specimens and store DNA profiles from the specimens in the DNA data bank.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
