United States Second Circuit
US v. Amerson, 05-1423, 05-1063
In consolidated cases involving convictions for bank larceny and aiding and abetting wire fraud, the imposition of requirement under the Justice For All Act of 2004 that these defendants supply a sample of their DNA for analysis and storage in the Combined DNA Index System is affirmed, as requiring felons convicted of nonviolent crimes and sentenced to probation to submit DNA samples under the Act does not violate the Fourth Amendment.
