Speeches DNA EVIDENCE: PROCEED WITH CARE The Hon Justice Michael Kirby My work as a member of the Ethics Committee of the Human Genome Organisation has taught me much about DNA, the human genome and their potential to change the ways many things are done in society, including in medicine, science, policing and the law. There is no doubt that, in the future, DNA evidence will be an important tool for effective policing. It will sometimes provide a means to establish the innocence of a person accused (or even convicted) of a criminal offence by demonstrating that the perpetrator was almost certainly, or even certainly, someone else In appropriate cases, it will also help to eliminate suspects, narrow down the possibilities and even identify the persons responsible for serious crimes who leave behind traces of their DNA like a genetic fingerprint Despite some recent cases which suggest that DNA evidence can sometimes be faulted, because matching of DNA with a suspect is, in a particular case, mistaken

Site Map Submission to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Committee Inquiry into the Commonwealth Crimes Amendment (Forensic Procedures) Bill 2000 30-Oct-2000 Justice Action Justice Action is a NSW community based criminal justice and prisoners advocacy group who seek to raise awareness of the inadequacies and failings of the criminal justice system while promoting and undertaking constructive measures to address the dual problems of crime and imprisonment in our society. Justice Action receives no government funding, relying on the voluntary efforts of ex-prisoners, academics, lawyers, students, victims of crime, those with family or loved ones in prison and other community activists. Its quarterly magazine, 'Framed', is subscribed to by lawyers, members of the judiciary, politicians, police, prison officers, criminologists, academics, community legal centres and activist organisations, both in Australia and overseas. 'Framed' is distributed free of charge in all NSW prisons. Recent submissions made by JA to the Commonwealth have dealt with such issues as voting rights for prisoners, mandatory sentencing and the National Hepatitis C Strategy.

About Contact ALRC inquiries Making submissions ... 2002 media Media release Australian Law Reform Commission/Australian Health Ethics Committee Wednesday, 28 August 2002 Human genetics revolution - safeguards require major upgrade The revolution in genetic science means that Australia now requires a careful mix of strategies - stronger ethical oversight, stiffer regulations, industry codes, education campaigns, an independent expert advisory body, revised privacy and discrimination laws, and perhaps even new criminal laws - to ensure human genetic information is well protected and intelligently used. After 18 months of investigation and wide public consultation, the Australian Law Reform Commission (ALRC) and the Australian Health Ethics Committee (AHEC) of the National Health and Medical Research Council have today released ALRC Discussion Paper 66, containing 105 proposals and 40 further questions, together with extensive supporting research and commentary. ALRC President Professor David Weisbrot said rapid advances in genetic science mean these issues now impact on every Australian. "Today a person's DNA can be used for identification, to test for illness, and to help predict that person's future health and well-being. Your DNA can talk about you, your family and your community, so the implications of this are almost endless," he said. "We hear about using DNA for health and medical research, and for law enforcement. However, we also need to consider the activities of insurance companies, employers, sporting associations, government authorities, and in the courts."

Gilmer, and David J. van Alstyne Bureau of Research and Evaluation Table of Contents Note From the Director Introduction Findings Cautions ... References NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR Since January 1, 1996, the law in New York State has required offenders convicted of certain felonies to submit biological samples (formerly blood and more recently buccal samples swabbed from the inside of the cheek) for DNA profiling through laboratory analysis. The resulting records of offender DNA profiles are organized into a centralized index within the State DNA Data Bank—a part of CODIS, the national Combined DNA Index System developed by the FBI. When matched against samples of forensic DNA gathered from crime scenes, these reference DNA profiles from the Offender Index can identify—or eliminate—suspects in criminal investigations. Forensic DNA analysis has been shown to be a highly efficient technique that assures a greater likelihood of detection than traditional forensic methods. This DCJS report compares two proposals to expand the State DNA Data Bank by indexing those offenders convicted of nonviolent felonies and less serious crimes as well. It offers policymakers information based on New York State data that can be used to assess the relative potential of these proposals to provide

Criminal Law Enforcement Crime Laboratory Service Overview Objective Personnel Programs ... DrugFire Overview: From a one-chemist operation established in 1937 at Camp Mabry in Austin, the Crime Laboratory Service has developed into a staff of more than 160 in 13 locations today. The Crime Laboratory provides a myriad of services to law enforcement agencies in the investigation of crimes and is nationally known for its abilities in forensic science (the evaluation and examination of evidence collected at the scene of a crime) and criminalistics (the science of recognizing, identifying, individualizing and evaluating physical evidence by the application of natural science to law-science matters). The crime lab has kept abreast of the latest techniques in these areas in order to provide timely and accurate results to law enforcement agencies requesting assistance. The Crime Laboratory plays an integral role in the criminal justice system and serves as a support service to the law enforcement and judicial communities of Texas. Objective: The overall objective of the Crime Laboratory Service is to provide expert forensic laboratory services to law enforcement agencies within Texas. These services include:
