I'm very happy it didn't pass!
How'd the Bill that was in committee a few weeks ago on Higher Ed. do?...
I do agree on being more strict, but not on the jail time. Putting people in jail these days is just asking for them to be made into worse criminals, especially with the type of people that are committing DUI's. Do I know what will deter people from drinking and driving more than a fine and risk of jail time?... No, but if anyone did, we wouldn't have a problem, as it would already be on the law books and everyone would abide by the law.
You have to remember that, just as in gun laws, laws regarding drinking and driving will be broken no matter what the law is, due to criminals being defined as those that break the law. If they didn't think that thousands of dollars of fines/attorney costs and/or jail and suspension of their license is bad enough, then do you think adding a little more here and there is really going to stop anyone?
Keep in mind that this is just a rule however. They can decide to revisit a bill at any time before the session ends and there is no legal requirement that a bill be heard in committee first. So any bill that they really want to pass can just be brought straight to the floor at any time.All bills must be passed out of Committees by February 8th,
Wow. I wonder what happens if you refuse - obviously guilty, right?Be glad you're not in Florida right now.....
Police Swabbing Mouths During Traffic Stops In Serial Killer Hunt
http://www.local6.com/problemsolvers/15232197/detail.html
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Police officers in Daytona Beach are swabbing the mouths of motorists during traffic stops with special DNA kits in the hunt for an elusive serial killer, sources close to the investigation told Local 6.
Investigators said they believe the same man has killed four women execution style in the Daytona Beach area.
A profiler said the serial killer is likely clean cut and probably has a wife or girlfriend.
And, the Daytona Beach police Chief, Mike Chitwood, said detectives have the killer's DNA.
"Genetically, we know who he is," Chitwood said. "We have DNA evidence from the murder scenes -- so, we got that. That is never going to go away. And, sooner or later, we will match the DNA to the physical person and bring closure to everything that is going on."
Agents are using the DNA kits to collect as much DNA as possible during traffic stops and special operations in hopes on making a match.
Local 6 showed agents stopping a person of interest from Canada, who gave his DNA to officers on the street using the DNA kit.
The DNA kits are also being used in prostitution stings in the area.
Chitwood said over time, modern technology will lead to the killer.
"I can tell you that we are working really, really hard," Chitwood said. "I can tell you that there are a lot of things going on behind the scenes."
Anyone with information concerning the deaths is urged to call a new serial killer hotline at 888-619-5734.
I don't think they could force this issue without public cooperation. They would have to have a warrant that would specify that they had probable cause to believe that you were a suspect. The difference between this and alcohol tests is that it is generally written into law that getting a driver's license is an agreement to waive your privacy rights regarding alcohol testing. Since you don't have a right to a DL you have to agree to certain things in order to be issued one. However DNA testing is not, to the best of my knowledge, written into the requirements in any states.Wow. I wonder what happens if you refuse - obviously guilty, right?
