Governor O'Malley has championed the use of innovative technology in making Maryland neighborhoods safer, including using DNA evidence to convict violent offenders. Upon taking office, Governor O'Malley inherited a shameful backlog of 24,000 DNA samples that had not been entered in the State's database, representing potentially hundreds of offenders walking the streets unnecessarily. Tomorrow, Governor O'Malley will announce the achievement of a significant new milestone in the effort to clean up that backlog, and enhance local and state police use of the DNA database.
