Crimes: prostitution; references to prostitute and prostitution; modify in the juvenile facilities act. Amends sec. 5a of 1988 PA 73 (MCL 803.225a).
This bill requires juveniles under state supervision who are convicted of specific sex-related offenses to provide DNA samples before being released from wardship. It applies to minors found responsible for crimes such as prostitution, soliciting minors for sexual acts, and indecent exposure, mandating that these samples be collected by juvenile agencies without the need for a court order or the juvenile's consent. The collected DNA profiles are restricted to law enforcement identification, judicial proceedings, and de-identified academic or research use, while a $60 assessment fee is imposed to cover the costs of processing and storing these samples.
