SENATE BILL NO. 110 "An Act relating to the preservation of evidence." SENATOR HOLLIS FRENCH, sponsor, explained that the bill puts new provisions in the criminal code for the preservation of evidence. It requires state agencies and municipal law enforcement agencies to preserve all evidence in the most serious cases, such as unsolved murder, first degree sexual assault, and first degree sexual abuse of a minor. The bill requires that biological evidence be retained as long as a person remains a prisoner in the Department of Corrections or subject to registration as a sex offender. The bill provides that evidence that is impractical due to its size, or other characteristics, may be destroyed after the removal and preservation of portions that are likely to contain relevant evidence. The bill allows for remedies to be provided for by judges after they have heard both sides and protects agencies from civil immunity due to an unintentional failure to comply with the provisions. It allows for innocent people to prove their innocence. Twenty-five other states have similar laws. The bill is supported by the Department of Law, the Department of Public Safety, the Association of Chiefs of Police, the Alaska Innocents Project, the ACLU, and by the Alaska Network on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. 1:05:44 PM Senator Huggins MOVED to ADOPT Amendment 1: Page 6, line 13, following "December 31," Delete: "2011" Insert: "2012" Page 6, line 24, following "January 1," Delete: "2011" Insert: "2012" Co-Chair Stedman OBJECTED for discussion purposes. He said that the amendment corrects the dates. Co-Chair Stedman WITHDREW his OBJECTION. There being NO further OBJECTION, it was so ordered. Co-Chair Stedman reviewed the three fiscal notes: one fiscal note is from the Department of Law for $5,000 to cover travel costs associated with the task force, a zero fiscal note from Alaska State Troopers Division, and one fiscal note from the Department of Public Safety, statewide support, for $134,200 to cover the cost of a new position and storage. The committee requested an updated fiscal note, but it was not provided. He reported that the governor also has a bill that requires the preservation of evidence and the same fiscal note provided by the department for that bill is zero. To be consistent the committee has drafted a zero fiscal note to be adopted in lieu of the department's note. There are a total of three fiscal notes. 1:07:24 PM Senator Ellis MOVED to report CSSB 110(JUD) out of committee with individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes. There being NO OBJECTION, it was so ordered. CSSB 110 (JUD) was REPORTED out of Committee with a "do pass" recommendation, and with two new zero fiscal notes by the Department of Public Safety and a new zero fiscal note by the Department of Law. 1:08:26 PM
