Baton Rouge Man Sues for His DNA

The Times-Picayune reports that Shannon Kohler, the individual compelled to provide his DNA to the serial killer task force last fall, has filed suit for the return of his DNA sample.

Baton Rouge lawyer Dennis Whalen is representing Kohler in efforts to persuade a 19th Judicial District judge to order Kohler's DNA returned. "It's a routine motion to get back your property that's been taken in the search warrant," he said.
