Rape suspect challenges DNA testing

A prison inmate is challenging the Georgia law that requires DNA testing of incarcerated felons. Today Kenny Quarterman’s lawyer argued before the Georgia Supreme Court. She said Georgia laws unfairly target incarcerated felons and should be expanded to all convicted felons. State attorneys countered that DNA testing was a small price to pay to exonerate the innocent and crack cold cases. Quarterman was serving time for a cocaine conviction when police linked his DNA to a previous rape.
