Show Notes

Iowas House of Representatives passed a bill (House File twenty-six twenty-four) that expands DNA collection to arrestees for felonies and aggravated misdemeanors, similar to Katies Law. Supporters argue it aids in solving cold cases and targeting repeat offenders, while critics claim it violates Fourth Amendment rights. The bill includes provisions for expungement protection and automatically deletes DNA if charges are dismissed or the person is acquitted. It now moves to the Senate.
