    (a) Any person who knowingly performs any of the following acts commits promoting juvenile prostitution:
        (1) advances prostitution as defined in Section 11-0.1, where the minor engaged in
    
prostitution, or any person engaged in prostitution in the place, is under 18 years of age or is a person with a severe or profound intellectual disability at the time of the offense;
        (2) profits from prostitution by any means where the prostituted person is under 18
    
years of age or is a person with a severe or profound intellectual disability at the time of the offense;
        (3) profits from prostitution by any means where the prostituted person is under 13
    
years of age at the time of the offense;
        (4) confines a child under the age of 18 or a person with a severe or profound
    
intellectual disability against his or her will by the infliction or threat of imminent infliction of great bodily harm or permanent disability or disfigurement or by administering to the child or the person with a severe or profound intellectual disability, without his or her consent or by threat or deception and for other than medical purposes, any alcoholic intoxicant or a drug as defined in the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or the Cannabis Control Act or methamphetamine as defined in the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act and:
            (A) compels the child or the person with a severe or profound intellectual

intellectual disability.
    (b) For purposes of this Section, administering drugs, as defined in subdivision (a)(4), or an alcoholic intoxicant to a child under the age of 13 or a person with a severe or profound intellectual disability shall be deemed to be without consent if the administering is done without the consent of the parents or legal guardian or if the administering is performed by the parents or legal guardian for other than medical purposes.
    (c) If the accused did not have a reasonable opportunity to observe the prostituted person, it is an affirmative defense to a charge of promoting juvenile prostitution, except for a charge under subdivision (a)(4), that the accused reasonably believed the person was of the age of 18 years or over or was not a person with a severe or profound intellectual disability at the time of the act giving rise to the charge.
