I swear I saw a video with the SC DA and he seems to say that maybe RH's DNA hasn't been entered into state and national databases... because of laws. That it's only usually done if there's a "conviction". WHAT?? Maybe I misunderstood! I'm trying to find another acceptable link to post. Did anyone else hear similar??

Starting at approx 3:08

“We’re interviewing a great deal of people,” he said.

“This investigation isn’t limited to New York state.”

However, under federal law, Mr Heuermann’s DNA cannot be entered into state or national databases to see if he is tied to other unsolved cases until he is convicted.

Agencies across the United States submit information to, and obtain information from, CJIS systems. This exchange of information is essential to public safety. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) maintains the host systems and provides a telecommunication network to one CJIS Systems Agency (CSA) in each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, territories, Canada, and federal agencies, including DOJ. CSAs provide access to CJIS systems as well as Nlets.

National Crime Information Systems

Maybe is VICAP. I’ll have to watch the killing season again but whichever system it was was voluntary so the lack of data reporting was causing connections in crimes to be missed. Edited to add: it is VICAP.

Why Can't the FBI Identify Serial Rapists?

30 years after the FBI launched a revolutionary system to catch repeat offenders, it remains largely unused by local cops.

I’m sure both prints and dna were submitted to all is “is” systems (AFIS, CODIS). Does anyone know the stats on how many states are now required to report to NCIC?

I thought so but ???

Thank you for good link and quote!!

Apparently not. That’s odd. I thought probable cause would cover it.

I'm trying to research NY's DNA Databank. I see the BBM part.


Presently, any offender convicted of a New York State felony offense or Penal Law misdemeanor is required to provide a DNA sample for inclusion in the Databank. This requirement applies to anyone convicted on or after August 1, 2012; the law does not apply to juvenile delinquents, whose cases are handled in Family Courts, or individuals granted youthful offender status by the court, which results in their conviction being sealed except in limited circumstances allowed by law. The Databank also includes samples from offenders who provided them under certain circumstances outlined in state regulation.

Additional Information​

The New York State DNA Databank was established by law in 1994 and began operating in 1996. At that time, only offenders convicted of certain offenses were required to provide DNA samples.

The list of crimes that require a DNA sample upon conviction has been expanded five times, most recently in 2012. In addition to requiring DNA samples upon conviction for felony offenses and all Penal Law misdemeanors, the 2012 law expanded a criminal defendant’s access to pre- and post-conviction DNA testing in certain circumstances.

In addition, state regulations permit the release of partial DNA matches that meet certain criteria to law enforcement agencies for investigative purposes and allow law enforcement agencies to request a familial search of the DNA Databank in connection with unsolved, serious crimes. Information in the Databank is protected by state law and by comprehensive internal procedures. The intentional disclosure of a DNA record to an unauthorized person or agency or the intentional use or receipt of DNA records for an unauthorized purpose is a felony.

JMO but if RH's DNA isn't immediately entered into CODIS... I'm gonna' be MAD!

I read that his dna cannot be entered into Codus until he's been convicted

I read that his dna cannot be entered into Codus until he's been convicted

I wonder if additional states could subpoena it to test against their victims once they have enough probable cause?

Agencies across the United States submit information to, and obtain information from, CJIS systems. This exchange of information is essential to public safety. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) maintains the host systems and provides a telecommunication network to one CJIS Systems Agency (CSA) in each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, territories, Canada, and federal agencies, including DOJ. CSAs provide access to CJIS systems as well as Nlets.

RH's DNA, fingerprints and any other dang thing about him NEEDS to be in a LE database! jmo


ETA: Can anyone explain the BBM part?

The list of crimes that require a DNA sample upon conviction has been expanded five times, most recently in 2012. In addition to requiring DNA samples upon conviction for felony offenses and all Penal Law misdemeanors, the 2012 law expanded a criminal defendant’s access to pre- and post-conviction DNA testing in certain circumstances

It varies state to state. Some states collect DNA after any arrest. In other states it's any arrest for a felony. And other states require a conviction of a felony before they collect DNA. So, it's possible that they haven't collected DNA yet. I don't know NY's laws on the matter.

NY I believe you have to be convicted of a misdemeanor or felony to be required to provide a DNA sample, and there are certain crimes that fall under the misdemeanor and or/felony umbrella that don’t require it.

Special circumstances could warrant a pre-conviction DNA sample. They already have his DNA, it’s just a matter of it being entered in CODIS. I’m no expert but I’m going to guess the DA has to make a motion to the court and have it granted and ordered to be entered into CODIS pre-conviction? Just MOO

“We’re interviewing a great deal of people,” he said.

“This investigation isn’t limited to New York state.”

However, under federal law, Mr Heuermann’s DNA cannot be entered into state or national databases to see if he is tied to other unsolved cases until he is convicted.

I would think there would be some way to get it done

The last part of my post was my guess on how they will go about that

Interesting that he went to upstate NY for hunting trips and that he had a picture of a prostitute from up there. Lots of missing girls up that way.

NY I believe you have to be convicted of a misdemeanor or felony to be required to provide a DNA sample, and there are certain crimes that fall under the misdemeanor and or/felony umbrella that don’t require it.

Special circumstances could warrant a pre-conviction DNA sample. They already have his DNA, it’s just a matter of it being entered in CODIS. I’m no expert but I’m going to guess the DA has to make a motion to the court and have it granted and ordered to be entered into CODIS pre-conviction? Just MOO

I found this to be interesting as well. If I am interpreting it correctly, does this potentially mean that his DNA could already be in the database if the below (BBM) is applicable?

The Databank also contains forensic DNA profiles that are developed from the analysis of crime scene evidence. The Office of Forensic Services oversees a comprehensive confirmation process that reviews DNA matches linking offenders’ profiles in the Databank to forensic profiles. After match confirmation and offender verification, the office notifies the appropriate agency of the linked offender’s identity. That agency then determines the value of the match, also known as a hit or investigative lead.

I suppose it’s possible. Laws are a funny thing; sometimes from a legal standpoint, it’s not the written law itself, but the interpretation of the law that can be manipulated and argued.

Maybe it’s in and they are keeping it quiet, maybe they are taking the legal steps required by the jurisdiction and NYS Laws to make sure it gets in ASAP.
