© ESR 2008 Overview of ESR New Zealand government owned “Crown Research Institute” - formed in 1992 Follows a company model with an independent Board of Directors and CEO &required to make a return on equity Leading provider of forensic science services Independent of police Operates the New Zealand DNA Profile Databank on behalf of NZ Police

© ESR 2008 A Global Perspective ~ 40 countries have a DNA Databank Legislation is country specific Significant variation: - Who provides a sample - Is the sample retained - Can the profile be removed Interpol DNA Database and Gateway allows for data sharing between countries (legislative dependent)

© ESR 2008 NZ Situation Part 3, Criminal Investigations (Bodily Samples) Act, 1995 => CI(BS) Act Samples are - Volunteered - Compelled from individuals convicted of a ‘serious’ offence - Destroyed after a DNA profile is obtained - Profile can be removed if consent is withdrawn or conviction is cleared - DNA link report is not admissible in court proceedings - Further suspect reference sample required

© ESR 2008 Types of Crimes Involved in Links

© ESR 2008 Case example Homicide - Female murdered in her home in Auckland - Little evidence at scene - shoeprints - DNA detected under the fingernails of the deceased - DNA profile loaded to Crime Sample Database - Linked to an individual - Guilty verdict

© ESR 2008 Case example Homicide - Female murdered in Fingernail scrapings from victim reanalysed in Male DNA profile obtained and loaded to the CSD - In 2003 a male supplied a DNA Databank sample - DNA link to the fingernail samples - Suspect pled guilty to the murder charge

© ESR 2008 DNA Databank – recent developments DNA elimination samples from crime investigators Familial DNA DNA sampling and age of donor
