Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount: identification of unidentified human remains.

Summary

The bill amends the Government Code so that sheriffs receiving money from the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount may allocate a portion of those funds to forensic and genealogical work that helps identify unknown bodies. It applies to the same counties that already receive the subaccount’s allocations and adds no new funding, only a new permissible use. The measure failed to pass and is not currently in effect.
