Law enforcement agencies will be able to begin collecting DNA samples of a missing person's family members in an effort to create a reference DNA sample, under a new law that takes effect January 1, 2021. The law adds the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System to the list of laboratories law enforcement can coordinate with when they are trying to find a missing person. The law does not allow for DNA samples collected in missing person cases from family members to be kept by law enforcement agencies once the missing person is located.#missingpersonDNA,
