UNITED STATES’ STIPULATED

[PROPOSED] ORDER RE:

COLLECTION OF DNA SAMPLES

On July 23, 2007, the government announced its intention to obtain DNA samples from

defendants pursuant to Schmerber v. California, 384 U.S. 757 (1966). The Court requested that

defendants determine whether or not they oppose the government’s request by close of business

on July 23, 2007, and to inform the government of their decisions. Both defendants have stated

that they do not oppose the government obtaining their DNA under the following conditions: (1)

the DNA samples will be obtained by swab, rather than by taking blood; (2) defense counsel may

be present when the samples are obtained ; and (3) the defendants will be provided with the 1

DNA reports of conclusions shortly after they are received by the government. Each of these

conditions is agreeable to the government.

UPON CONSIDERATION OF THE FOREGOING, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT

comparison DNA samples from defendants Bibbs and Watson are necessary in order to ascertain

whether either one or both of their DNA profile matches the DNA profile that likely will be

obtained on the handgun recovered from the vehicle in this case. Oral swab samples taken from

Bibbs and Watson will yield usable DNA samples that will enable this comparison. The oral

swabs will be collected from the inside cheek portion of the mouth to sufficiently collect buccal

cells. Defense counsel shall be permitted an opportunity to be present during the sample

collections.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, that the FBI is authorized to collect DNA samples from Maurice

Bibbs and Deandre Watson by collecting oral swab samples from them using the standard

procedures developed by the FBI crime laboratory described above and that defense counsel may

be present during the collection. Any results from the comparison shall be promptly forwarded

by the United States Attorney’s Office to defense counsel.

SO ORDERED, this ________________ day of _________________, 2007.
