Show Notes
Georgias new bill proposes DNA collection from individuals charged with misdemeanors or felonies if federal immigration agents issue a detainer, even if theyre not deported or picked up within forty-eight hours. This move, supported by Senator Tim Bearden, aims to solve unsolved crimes and catch undocumented criminals. However, critics argue it creates a two-tiered justice system, potentially targeting individuals based solely on their immigration status. This trend aligns with the federal governments push under Trump to increase biometrics for mass deportations, raising concerns about routine genetic surveillance for those flagged by ICE.
