Leroy Butler challenges his conviction and sentence for armed burglary and sexual battery with use of a deadly weapon. He contends that the DNA evidence which led to his conviction should have been suppressed because it was obtained by the erroneous and unconstitutional application of section 943.325(l)(a), Florida Statutes (Supp. 1996),
