Provides that within 14 days following the preliminary examination in which a judge finds there is probable cause to believe the arrestee has committed an offense requiring the submission of the specimen, or an arrestee has waived a preliminary hearing, or the arrest was made under a warrant supported by probable cause that the arrestee committed an offense requiring the submission of the specimen, the arresting agency shall submit the specimen to the Illinois State Police. Provides that as soon as practicable following the hearing, if the judge finds there is no probable cause to believe the arrestee has committed the offense, the arresting agency shall cause the specimen to be destroyed.
