New Requirements Compounding Oklahoma s Sexual Assault Kit Backlog

1 of 1 The number of sexual assault kits waiting to be tested by DNA analysts is growing because of a requirement for police to send kits in for testing. The rate at which kits are coming in has tripled. The state was already trying to clear more than 3,000 backlogged kits. The backlog was years in the making. Law enforcement agencies for various reasons didn’t always submit kits to the state crime lab for testing. The state Legislature tried to fix that problem in 2019. Lawmakers approved a group of bills which included a requirement that, if victims’ didn’t object, police must submit kits for testing within 20 days of receiving them.
