Minn. May allow Familial
Minn. seeks to use familial DNA but with limitations on its use.
"Minnesota law enforcement authorities understandably want to use this valuable investigative technique to solve crimes here, and they should be able to do so -- within certain limits.
Authorities likely don't need a state law to begin using it, but, to their credit, they are calling for a law that not only authorizes the technique's use but puts much-needed restrictions on its use. They also are welcoming the high-profile debate that their push for the law has spurred.
While familial DNA can help solve difficult crimes, its use carries legitimate privacy and civil-rights concerns."
