Summary

(1) Existing law, the DNA Fingerprint, Unresolved Crime and Innocence Protection Act, an initiative measure, requires an additional penalty of one dollar for every $10 or part thereof to be levied in each county upon every fine, penalty, or forfeiture imposed and collected by the courts for all criminal offenses, as specified. The act requires the county board of supervisors to establish in the county treasury a DNA Identification Fund, into which the collected penalties are to be deposited. The act requires 25% of the moneys in the county fund to be transferred to the state's DNA Identification Fund and specifies the purposes for which funds in the county's and the state's DNA Identification Funds may be used, including to reimburse local sheriff, police, district attorney, and regional state crime laboratories for expenditures and administrative costs made or incurred in connection with the processing, analysis, tracking, and storage of DNA crime scene samples, as specified. The act provides for its amendment by the Legislature if the amendments further the act and are consistent with its purpose to enhance the use of DNA identification evidence for the purpose of accurate and expeditious crime solving and exonerating the innocent. This bill would require, for the purposes of providing supplemental funding for the DNA Fingerprint, Unsolved Crime and Innocence Protection Act, as specified, an additional penalty to be levied in an unspecified amount in each county for the late payment of any fine, penalty, or forfeiture imposed by the courts for any violation of the Vehicle Code, or a local ordinance adopted pursuant to the Vehicle Code, that is committed by the driver of a vehicle while it is in motion. Pursuant to the provisions described above, the penalty proceeds would be deposited into each county's and the state's DNA Identification Fund for the purposes specified above. The bill would declare that its provisions further the initiative act and are consistent with its purposes.
