CA11: First offender DNA sample that should have been destroyed under state law but wasn’t could be used in federal prosecution

Posted on January 22, 2017 by pogowasright.org

John Wesley Hall, Jr. writes:

Under Georgia law, a DNA sample from a first offender should be expunged from the system when he completes his probation or sentence. This one wasn’t. Whatever the statute says, it doesn’t violate the Fourth Amendment.
