287 | Section 12. Section 960.003, Florida Statutes, is amended |
288 | to read: |
289 | 960.003 Hepatitis and HIV testing for persons charged with |
290 | or alleged by petition for delinquency to have committed certain |
291 | offenses; disclosure of results to victims.- |
292 | (1) LEGISLATIVE INTENT.-The Legislature finds that a |
293 | victim of a criminal offense which involves the transmission of |
294 | body fluids, or which involves certain sexual offenses in which |
295 | the victim is a minor, disabled adult, or elderly person, is |
296 | entitled to know at the earliest possible opportunity whether |
297 | the person charged with or alleged by petition for delinquency |
298 | to have committed the offense has tested positive for hepatitis |
299 | or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The Legislature |
300 | finds that to deny victims access to hepatitis and HIV test |
301 | results causes unnecessary mental anguish in persons who have |
302 | already suffered trauma. The Legislature further finds that |
303 | since medical science now recognizes that early diagnosis is a |
304 | critical factor in the treatment of hepatitis and HIV infection, |
305 | both the victim and the person charged with or alleged by |
306 | petition for delinquency to have committed the offense benefit |
307 | from prompt disclosure of hepatitis and HIV test results. |
308 | (2) TESTING OF PERSON CHARGED WITH OR ALLEGED BY PETITION |
309 | FOR DELINQUENCY TO HAVE COMMITTED CERTAIN OFFENSES.- |
310 | (a) In any case in which a person has been charged by |
311 | information or indictment with or alleged by petition for |
312 | delinquency to have committed any offense enumerated in s. |
313 | 775.0877(1)(a)-(n), which involves the transmission of body |
314 | fluids from one person to another, upon request of the victim or |
315 | the victim's legal guardian, or of the parent or legal guardian |
316 | of the victim if the victim is a minor, the court shall order |
317 | such person to undergo hepatitis and HIV testing within 48 hours |
318 | after of the information, indictment, or petition for |
319 | delinquency is filed court order. In the event the victim or, if |
320 | the victim is a minor, the victim's parent or legal guardian |
321 | requests hepatitis and HIV testing after 48 hours have elapsed |
322 | from the filing of the indictment, information, or petition for |
323 | delinquency, the testing shall be done within 48 hours after the |
324 | request. |
325 | (b) However, when a victim of any sexual offense |
326 | enumerated in s. 775.0877(1)(a)-(n) is under the age of 18 at |
327 | the time the offense was committed or when a victim of any |
328 | sexual offense enumerated in s. 775.0877(1)(a)-(n) or s. |
329 | 825.1025 is a disabled adult or elderly person as defined in s. |
330 | 825.1025 regardless of whether the offense involves the |
331 | transmission of bodily fluids from one person to another, then |
332 | upon the request of the victim or the victim's legal guardian, |
333 | or of the parent or legal guardian, the court shall order such |
334 | person to undergo hepatitis and HIV testing within 48 hours |
335 | after of the information, indictment, or petition for |
336 | delinquency is filed court order. In the event the victim or, if |
337 | the victim is a minor, the victim's parent or legal guardian |
338 | requests hepatitis and HIV testing after 48 hours have elapsed |
339 | from the filing of the indictment, information, or petition for |
340 | delinquency, the testing shall be done within 48 hours after the |
341 | request. The testing shall be performed under the direction of |
342 | the Department of Health in accordance with s. 381.004. The |
343 | results of a hepatitis and an HIV test performed on a defendant |
344 | or juvenile offender pursuant to this subsection shall not be |
345 | admissible in any criminal or juvenile proceeding arising out of |
346 | the alleged offense. |
347 | (c) If medically appropriate, followup HIV testing shall |
348 | be provided when testing has been ordered under paragraph (a) or |
349 | paragraph (b). The medical propriety of followup HIV testing |
350 | shall be based upon a determination by a physician and does not |
351 | require an additional court order. Notification to the victim, |
352 | or to the victim's parent or legal guardian, and to the |
353 | defendant of the results of each followup test shall made be as |
354 | soon as practicable in accordance with this section. |
355 | (3) DISCLOSURE OF RESULTS.- |
356 | (a) The results of the test shall be disclosed no later |
357 | than 2 weeks after the court receives such results, under the |
358 | direction of the Department of Health, to the person charged |
359 | with or alleged by petition for delinquency to have committed or |
360 | to the person convicted of or adjudicated delinquent for any |
361 | offense enumerated in s. 775.0877(1)(a)-(n), which involves the |
362 | transmission of body fluids from one person to another, and, |
363 | upon request, to the victim or the victim's legal guardian, or |
364 | the parent or legal guardian of the victim if the victim is a |
365 | minor, and to public health agencies pursuant to s. 775.0877. If |
366 | the alleged offender is a juvenile, the test results shall also |
367 | be disclosed to the parent or guardian. When the victim is a |
368 | victim as described in paragraph (2)(b), the test results must |
