investigation of a criminal offense and:

a. a comparison of the fingerprints of the child with

fingerprints found during the investigation of the

offense is negative, or

b. a court finds that the child did not commit the

alleged offense,

all law enforcement records of the arrest and, if applicable,

juvenile court and agency records shall be amended to reflect said

facts immediately after the comparison or court finding;

2. Fingerprints obtained pursuant to this section shall be

retained in a central state depository and in a local depository

maintained by a duly constituted law enforcement agency;

3. Fingerprints obtained and maintained pursuant to this

section may be used only by law enforcement officers for comparison

purposes in connection with the investigation of a crime or to

establish identity in instances of death, serious illness, runaways,

or emergency; and

4. If a child is reported to a law enforcement agency as a

missing child or a custodial parent, legal guardian or legal

custodian of a child requests the issuance of a fingerprint card

pursuant to the provisions of the Oklahoma Minor Identification Act,

the provisions of the Oklahoma Minor Identification Act shall apply.

With the voluntary and informed consent of the parent, legal

guardian or legal custodian of the child, fingerprints obtained and

maintained pursuant to the Oklahoma Minor Identification Act may be
