No person required to submit a DNA sample pursuant to this section shall be released from a correctional facility until a DNA sample has been collected.
(b) The trial court, the commissioner of probation and the department shall establish and implement a system for the electronic notification to the department whenever a person is convicted of an offense that requires the submission of a DNA sample under subsection (a). The sample shall be collected by a person authorized under section 4, in accordance with regulations or procedures established by the director. The results of such sample shall become part of the state DNA database. The submission of such DNA sample shall not be stayed pending a sentence appeal, motion for new trial, appeal to an appellate court or other post-conviction motion or petition.
