Black Man Twice Cleared of Charges Demands Return of his DNA Sample

December 22, 2004/ Tron Nick

A lawyer representing a man forced to give a DNA sample in an Omaha Police Department's serial rape investigation plans to file a lawsuit next week in an attempt to recover the sample still being kept by police. Attorney William Gallup said he would be filing an action to retrieve his client's DNA sample in light of the unsealing of an affidavit police used to obtain the sample. He added that the case probably would be expanded into a class-action lawsuit in an effort to retrieve all the DNA samples submitted by men targeted in the investigation. "They were all innocent," Gallup said. "Now the question is why won't they return the DNA samples?" [more]
