AP reports that Gov. Granholm signed several bills passed during the lame duck session of the state legislature over the holidays, including a bill that requires felons to turn over a DNA sample to the state and stricter penalties for those who defraud the state by bringing in bottles and cans from out of state to get a ten cent refund on them.
 

People arrested for murder, felonious assault, manslaughter, criminal sexual conduct, armed robbery, kidnapping and some other crimes will be required to submit DNA samples. Previous Michigan law required only those convicted of certain crimes to provide the samples.

Granholm says she also signed bills aimed at cracking down on smugglers who redeem out-of-state pop cans and beer bottles for 10 cents in Michigan.

Can and bottle smuggling costs the state millions of dollars every year.
