What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Justice to establish a database, to be

known as the Wisconsin Sexual Assault Kit Tracking System, for the purpose of

providing victims of sexual assault access to information about the status of any

sexual assault kit the victim has provided and allowing health care professionals,

forensic laboratories, law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and the department to

update and track the location and status of sexual assault kits.
