| | A BILL FOR |
|
|
| | HB5227 | | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | AN ACT concerning criminal law.
|
2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
|
4 | | Section 5. The Unified Code of Corrections is amended by |
5 | | changing Sections 5-4-1 and 5-8-6 as follows:
|
6 | | (730 ILCS 5/5-4-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1005-4-1)
|
7 | | Sec. 5-4-1. Sentencing hearing.
|
8 | | (a) Except when the death penalty is
sought under hearing |
9 | | procedures otherwise specified, after a
determination of |
10 | | guilt, a hearing shall be held to impose the sentence.
However, |
11 | | prior to the imposition of sentence on an individual being
|
12 | | sentenced for an offense based upon a charge for a violation of |
13 | | Section
11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or a similar |
14 | | provision of a local
ordinance, the individual must undergo a |
15 | | professional evaluation to
determine if an alcohol or other |
16 | | drug abuse problem exists and the extent
of such a problem. |
17 | | Programs conducting these evaluations shall be
licensed by the |
18 | | Department of Human Services. However, if the individual is
not |
19 | | a resident of Illinois, the court
may, in its discretion, |
20 | | accept an evaluation from a program in the state of
such |
21 | | individual's residence. The court shall make a specific finding |
22 | | about whether the defendant is eligible for participation in a |
23 | | Department impact incarceration program as provided in Section |
|
| | HB5227 | - 2 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | 5-8-1.1 or 5-8-1.3, and if not, provide an explanation as to |
2 | | why a sentence to impact incarceration is not an appropriate |
3 | | sentence. The court may in its sentencing order recommend a |
4 | | defendant for placement in a Department of Corrections |
5 | | substance abuse treatment program as provided in paragraph (a) |
6 | | of subsection (1) of Section 3-2-2 conditioned upon the |
7 | | defendant being accepted in a program by the Department of |
8 | | Corrections. At the
hearing the court
shall:
|
9 | | (1) consider the evidence, if any, received upon the |
10 | | trial;
|
11 | | (2) consider any presentence reports;
|
12 | | (3) consider the financial impact of incarceration |
13 | | based on the
financial impact statement filed with the |
14 | | clerk of the court by the
Department of Corrections;
|
15 | | (4) consider evidence and information offered by the |
16 | | parties in
aggravation and mitigation; |
17 | | (4.5) consider substance abuse treatment, eligibility |
18 | | screening, and an assessment, if any, of the defendant by |
19 | | an agent designated by the State of Illinois to provide |
20 | | assessment services for the Illinois courts;
|
21 | | (5) hear arguments as to sentencing alternatives;
|
22 | | (6) afford the defendant the opportunity to make a |
23 | | statement in his
own behalf;
|
24 | | (7) afford the victim of a violent crime or a violation |
25 | | of Section
11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, or a |
26 | | similar provision of a local
ordinance, the opportunity to |
|
| | HB5227 | - 3 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | present an oral or written statement, as guaranteed by |
2 | | Article I, Section 8.1 of the Illinois Constitution and |
3 | | provided in Section 6 of the Rights of Crime Victims and |
4 | | Witnesses Act. The court shall allow a victim to make an |
5 | | oral statement if the victim is present in the courtroom |
6 | | and requests to make an oral or written statement. An oral |
7 | | or written statement includes the victim or a |
8 | | representative of the victim reading the written |
9 | | statement. The court may allow persons impacted by the |
10 | | crime who are not victims under subsection (a) of Section 3 |
11 | | of the Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act to present |
12 | | an oral or written statement. A victim and any person |
13 | | making an oral statement shall not be put under oath or |
14 | | subject to cross-examination. All statements offered under |
15 | | this paragraph
(7) shall become part of the record of the |
16 | | court. In this
paragraph (7), "victim of a violent crime" |
17 | | means a person who is a victim of a violent crime for which |
18 | | the defendant has been convicted after a bench or jury |
19 | | trial or a person who is the victim of a violent crime with |
20 | | which the defendant was charged and the defendant has been |
21 | | convicted under a plea agreement of a crime that is not a |
22 | | violent crime as defined in subsection (c) of 3 of the |
23 | | Rights of Crime Victims and Witnesses Act; |
24 | | (7.5) afford a qualified person affected by: (i) a |
25 | | violation of Section 405, 405.1, 405.2, or 407 of the |
26 | | Illinois Controlled Substances Act or a violation of |
|
| | HB5227 | - 4 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | Section 55 or Section 65 of the Methamphetamine Control and |
2 | | Community Protection Act; or (ii) a Class 4 felony |
3 | | violation of Section 11-14, 11-14.3 except as described in |
4 | | subdivisions (a)(2)(A) and (a)(2)(B), 11-15, 11-17, 11-18, |
5 | | 11-18.1, or 11-19 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or the |
6 | | Criminal Code of 2012, committed by the defendant the |
7 | | opportunity to make a statement concerning the impact on |
8 | | the qualified person and to offer evidence in aggravation |
9 | | or mitigation; provided that the statement and evidence |
10 | | offered in aggravation or mitigation shall first be |
11 | | prepared in writing in conjunction with the State's |
12 | | Attorney before it may be presented orally at the hearing. |
13 | | Sworn testimony offered by the qualified person is subject |
14 | | to the defendant's right to cross-examine. All statements |
15 | | and evidence offered under this paragraph (7.5) shall |
16 | | become part of the record of the court. In this paragraph |
17 | | (7.5), "qualified person" means any person who: (i) lived |
18 | | or worked within the territorial jurisdiction where the |
19 | | offense took place when the offense took place; or (ii) is |
20 | | familiar with various public places within the territorial |
21 | | jurisdiction where the offense took place when the offense |
22 | | took place. "Qualified person" includes any peace officer |
23 | | or any member of any duly organized State, county, or |
24 | | municipal peace officer unit assigned to the territorial |
25 | | jurisdiction where the offense took place when the offense |
26 | | took place;
|
|
| | HB5227 | - 5 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | (8) in cases of reckless homicide afford the victim's |
2 | | spouse,
guardians, parents or other immediate family |
3 | | members an opportunity to make
oral statements;
|
4 | | (9) in cases involving a felony sex offense as defined |
5 | | under the Sex
Offender
Management Board Act, consider the |
6 | | results of the sex offender evaluation
conducted pursuant |
7 | | to Section 5-3-2 of this Act; and
|
8 | | (10) make a finding of whether a motor vehicle was used |
9 | | in the commission of the offense for which the defendant is |
10 | | being sentenced. |
11 | | (b) All sentences shall be imposed by the judge based upon |
12 | | his
independent assessment of the elements specified above and |
13 | | any agreement
as to sentence reached by the parties. The judge |
14 | | who presided at the
trial or the judge who accepted the plea of |
15 | | guilty shall impose the
sentence unless he is no longer sitting |
16 | | as a judge in that court. Where
the judge does not impose |
17 | | sentence at the same time on all defendants
who are convicted |
18 | | as a result of being involved in the same offense, the
|
19 | | defendant or the State's Attorney may advise the sentencing |
20 | | court of the
disposition of any other defendants who have been |
21 | | sentenced.
|
22 | | (b-1) In imposing a sentence of imprisonment or periodic |
23 | | imprisonment for a Class 3 or Class 4 felony for which a |
24 | | sentence of probation or conditional discharge is an available |
25 | | sentence, if the defendant has no prior sentence of probation |
26 | | or conditional discharge and no prior conviction for a violent |
|
| | HB5227 | - 6 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | crime, the defendant shall not be sentenced to imprisonment |
2 | | before review and consideration of a presentence report and |
3 | | determination and explanation of why the particular evidence, |
4 | | information, factor in aggravation, factual finding, or other |
5 | | reasons support a sentencing determination that one or more of |
6 | | the factors under subsection (a) of Section 5-6-1 of this Code |
7 | | apply and that probation or conditional discharge is not an |
8 | | appropriate sentence. |
9 | | (c) In imposing a sentence for a violent crime or for an |
10 | | offense of
operating or being in physical control of a vehicle |
11 | | while under the
influence of alcohol, any other drug or any |
12 | | combination thereof, or a
similar provision of a local |
13 | | ordinance, when such offense resulted in the
personal injury to |
14 | | someone other than the defendant, the trial judge shall
specify |
15 | | on the record the particular evidence, information, factors in
|
16 | | mitigation and aggravation or other reasons that led to his |
17 | | sentencing
determination. The full verbatim record of the |
18 | | sentencing hearing shall be
filed with the clerk of the court |
19 | | and shall be a public record.
|
20 | | (c-1) In imposing a sentence for the offense of aggravated |
21 | | kidnapping for
ransom, home invasion, armed robbery, |
22 | | aggravated vehicular hijacking,
aggravated discharge of a |
23 | | firearm, or armed violence with a category I weapon
or category |
24 | | II weapon,
the trial judge shall make a finding as to whether |
25 | | the conduct leading to
conviction for the offense resulted in |
26 | | great bodily harm to a victim, and
shall enter that finding and |
|
| | HB5227 | - 7 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | the basis for that finding in the record.
|
2 | | (c-2) If the defendant is sentenced to prison, other than |
3 | | when a sentence of
natural life imprisonment or a sentence of |
4 | | death is imposed, at the time
the sentence is imposed the judge |
5 | | shall
state on the record in open court the approximate period |
6 | | of time the defendant
will serve in custody according to the |
7 | | then current statutory rules and
regulations for sentence |
8 | | credit found in Section 3-6-3 and other related
provisions of |
9 | | this Code. This statement is intended solely to inform the
|
10 | | public, has no legal effect on the defendant's actual release, |
11 | | and may not be
relied on by the defendant on appeal.
|
12 | | The judge's statement, to be given after pronouncing the |
13 | | sentence, other than
when the sentence is imposed for one of |
14 | | the offenses enumerated in paragraph
(a)(4) of Section 3-6-3, |
15 | | shall include the following:
|
16 | | "The purpose of this statement is to inform the public of |
17 | | the actual period
of time this defendant is likely to spend in |
18 | | prison as a result of this
sentence. The actual period of |
19 | | prison time served is determined by the
statutes of Illinois as |
20 | | applied to this sentence by the Illinois Department of
|
21 | | Corrections and
the Illinois Prisoner Review Board. In this |
22 | | case, assuming the defendant
receives all of his or her |
23 | | sentence credit, the period of estimated actual
custody is ... |
24 | | years and ... months, less up to 180 days additional earned |
25 | | sentence credit. If the defendant, because of his or
her own |
26 | | misconduct or failure to comply with the institutional |
|
| | HB5227 | - 8 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | regulations,
does not receive those credits, the actual time |
2 | | served in prison will be
longer. The defendant may also receive |
3 | | an additional one-half day sentence
credit for each day of |
4 | | participation in vocational, industry, substance abuse,
and |
5 | | educational programs as provided for by Illinois statute."
|
6 | | When the sentence is imposed for one of the offenses |
7 | | enumerated in paragraph
(a)(2) of Section 3-6-3, other than |
8 | | first degree murder, and the offense was
committed on or after |
9 | | June 19, 1998, and when the sentence is imposed for
reckless |
10 | | homicide as defined in subsection (e) of Section 9-3 of the |
11 | | Criminal
Code of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012 if the |
12 | | offense was committed on or after January 1, 1999,
and when the |
13 | | sentence is imposed for aggravated driving under the influence
|
14 | | of alcohol, other drug or drugs, or intoxicating compound or |
15 | | compounds, or
any combination thereof as defined in |
16 | | subparagraph (F) of paragraph (1) of
subsection (d) of Section |
17 | | 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and when
the sentence is |
18 | | imposed for aggravated arson if the offense was committed
on or |
19 | | after July 27, 2001 (the effective date of Public Act 92-176), |
20 | | and when
the sentence is imposed for aggravated driving under |
21 | | the influence of alcohol,
other drug or drugs, or intoxicating |
22 | | compound or compounds, or any combination
thereof as defined in |
23 | | subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1) of subsection (d) of
Section |
24 | | 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code committed on or after |
25 | | January 1, 2011 (the effective date of Public Act 96-1230), the |
26 | | judge's
statement, to be given after pronouncing the sentence, |
|
| | HB5227 | - 9 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | shall include the
following:
|
2 | | "The purpose of this statement is to inform the public of |
3 | | the actual period
of time this defendant is likely to spend in |
4 | | prison as a result of this
sentence. The actual period of |
5 | | prison time served is determined by the
statutes of Illinois as |
6 | | applied to this sentence by the Illinois Department of
|
7 | | Corrections and
the Illinois Prisoner Review Board. In this |
8 | | case,
the defendant is entitled to no more than 4 1/2 days of |
9 | | sentence credit for
each month of his or her sentence of |
10 | | imprisonment. Therefore, this defendant
will serve at least 85% |
11 | | of his or her sentence. Assuming the defendant
receives 4 1/2 |
12 | | days credit for each month of his or her sentence, the period
|
13 | | of estimated actual custody is ... years and ... months. If the |
14 | | defendant,
because of his or her own misconduct or failure to |
15 | | comply with the
institutional regulations receives lesser |
16 | | credit, the actual time served in
prison will be longer."
|
17 | | When a sentence of imprisonment is imposed for first degree |
18 | | murder and
the offense was committed on or after June 19, 1998, |
19 | | the judge's statement,
to be given after pronouncing the |
20 | | sentence, shall include the following:
|
21 | | "The purpose of this statement is to inform the public of |
22 | | the actual period
of time this defendant is likely to spend in |
23 | | prison as a result of this
sentence. The actual period of |
24 | | prison time served is determined by the
statutes of Illinois as |
25 | | applied to this sentence by the Illinois Department
of |
26 | | Corrections and the Illinois Prisoner Review Board. In this |
|
| | HB5227 | - 10 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | case, the
defendant is not entitled to sentence credit. |
2 | | Therefore, this defendant
will serve 100% of his or her |
3 | | sentence."
|
4 | | When the sentencing order recommends placement in a |
5 | | substance abuse program for any offense that results in |
6 | | incarceration
in a Department of Corrections facility and the |
7 | | crime was
committed on or after September 1, 2003 (the |
8 | | effective date of Public Act
93-354), the judge's
statement, in |
9 | | addition to any other judge's statement required under this
|
10 | | Section, to be given after pronouncing the sentence, shall |
11 | | include the
following:
|
12 | | "The purpose of this statement is to inform the public of
|
13 | | the actual period of time this defendant is likely to spend in
|
14 | | prison as a result of this sentence. The actual period of
|
15 | | prison time served is determined by the statutes of Illinois as
|
16 | | applied to this sentence by the Illinois Department of
|
17 | | Corrections and the Illinois Prisoner Review Board. In this
|
18 | | case, the defendant shall receive no earned sentence credit |
19 | | under clause (3) of subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3 until he or
|
20 | | she participates in and completes a substance abuse treatment |
21 | | program or receives a waiver from the Director of Corrections |
22 | | pursuant to clause (4.5) of subsection (a) of Section 3-6-3."
|
23 | | (c-4) Before the sentencing hearing and as part of the |
24 | | presentence investigation under Section 5-3-1, the court shall |
25 | | inquire of the defendant whether the defendant is currently |
26 | | serving in or is a veteran of the Armed Forces of the United |
|
| | HB5227 | - 11 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |
|
|
1 | | States.
If the defendant is currently serving in the Armed |
2 | | Forces of the United States or is a veteran of the Armed Forces |
3 | | of the United States and has been diagnosed as having a mental |
4 | | illness by a qualified psychiatrist or clinical psychologist or |
5 | | physician, the court may: |
6 | | (1) order that the officer preparing the presentence |
7 | | report consult with the United States Department of |
8 | | Veterans Affairs, Illinois Department of Veterans' |
9 | | Affairs, or another agency or person with suitable |
10 | | knowledge or experience for the purpose of providing the |
11 | | court with information regarding treatment options |
12 | | available to the defendant, including federal, State, and |
13 | | local programming; and |
14 | | (2) consider the treatment recommendations of any |
15 | | diagnosing or treating mental health professionals |
16 | | together with the treatment options available to the |
17 | | defendant in imposing sentence. |
18 | | For the purposes of this subsection (c-4), "qualified |
19 | | psychiatrist" means a reputable physician licensed in Illinois |
20 | | to practice medicine in all its branches, who has specialized |
21 | | in the diagnosis and treatment of mental and nervous disorders |
22 | | for a period of not less than 5 years. |
23 | | (c-6) In imposing a sentence, the trial judge shall |
24 | | specify, on the record, the particular evidence and other |
25 | | reasons which led to his or her determination that a motor |
26 | | vehicle was used in the commission of the offense. |
|
| | HB5227 | - 12 - | LRB101 18826 RLC 68283 b |

2 | | other than a violent crime as defined in Section 3 of the |

4 | | determine and indicate in the sentencing order whether the |
5 | | defendant has 4 or more or fewer than 4 months remaining on his |
6 | | or her sentence accounting for time served. |
7 | | (d) When the defendant is committed to the Department of
|
8 | | Corrections, the State's Attorney shall and counsel for the |
9 | | defendant
may file a statement with the clerk of the court to |
10 | | be transmitted to
the department, agency or institution to |
11 | | which the defendant is
committed to furnish such department, |
12 | | agency or institution with the
facts and circumstances of the |
13 | | offense for which the person was
committed together with all |
14 | | other factual information accessible to them
in regard to the |
15 | | person prior to his commitment relative to his habits,
|
16 | | associates, disposition and reputation and any other facts and
|
17 | | circumstances which may aid such department, agency or |
18 | | institution
during its custody of such person. The clerk shall |
19 | | within 10 days after
receiving any such statements transmit a |
20 | | copy to such department, agency
or institution and a copy to |
21 | | the other party, provided, however, that
this shall not be |
22 | | cause for delay in conveying the person to the
department, |
23 | | agency or institution to which he has been committed.
|
24 | | (e) The clerk of the court shall transmit to the |
25 | | department,
agency or institution, if any, to which the |
