This morning, Judge Karlton issued this DNA order, No. 11-CR-0427 amending the pretrial release conditions for two defendants by deleting the requirement that they provide a sample of their DNA as a condition of release, and ordering the government to state under oath within 14 days whether a sample was already taken from one defendant before he was released.
[I represent one of the two defendants, though Rachelle Barbour at the Federal Defender's Office is lead attorney in this litigation and should get all the credit for the excellent briefing.]
