DeWine, Mike [R-OH] | OH | R | D000294 | 0 | Revises Federal law regarding pay and allowances of the uniformed services to provide that a member of the U.S. armed forces sentenced by a court-martial to a dishonorable discharge is not entitled to pay and allowances for any period of confinement after the adjournment of the court-martial.

Amends the Federal criminal code to provide that whoever, while serving with, employed by, or accompanying the armed forces outside of the United States, engages in conduct that would constitute an offense punishable by imprisonment for more than one year if such conduct had occurred within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, shall be guilty of a like offense and subject to a like punishment. Sets forth provisions regarding concurrent jurisdiction, action by foreign governments, and arrests. Authorizes the delivery to authorities of foreign countries of persons alleged to have engaged in such conduct under specified circumstances.

Requires: (1) any person convicted of a crime of a sexual nature under the Code, prior to military discharge, to transmit to such Secretary a sample of blood, saliva, or other specimen collected from that person necessary to conduct DNA analysis; and (2) each sample to be transmitted in a timely manner to the Director for inclusion in the FBI's Combined DNA Identification System. | 2025-01-14T17:07:58Z |
