 1        AN ACT in relation to criminal law.

 2        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.  The Counties Code  is  amended  by  changing
 5    Section 3-15003 as follows:

 6        (55 ILCS 5/3-15003) (from Ch. 34, par. 3-15003)
 7        Sec.  3-15003.  Powers and duties. Under the direction of
 8    the Sheriff the Department shall have the powers  and  duties
 9    enumerated as follows:
10        (a)  To  operate  and  have  jurisdiction over the county
11    jail, municipal houses of correction within  the  county  and
12    any  other  penal,  corrections or prisoner diagnostic center
13    facility operated by either  the  county  jail  or  municipal
14    houses of correction.
15        (b)  To   have  charge  of  all  prisoners  held  in  any
16    institution, center or other  facility  in  the  county  over
17    which  it  has  jurisdiction  under  subsection  (a)  of this
18    Section, whether they are misdemeanants, felons, persons held
19    for trial, persons held in protective custody,  persons  held
20    for  transfer  to  other detention facilities or persons held
21    for non-payment of fines, for violations of ordinances or any
22    other  quasi-criminal  charges.  Nothing  in  this   Division
23    applies  to  minors subject to proceedings under the Juvenile
24    Court Act of 1987. It may transfer or recommit  any  prisoner
25    from  one  institution,  center or other such facility to any
26    other institution,  center  or  other  facility  whenever  it
27    determines  that  such transfer or recommitment would promote
28    the welfare or rehabilitation of the prisoner, or  that  such
29    transfer    or   recommitment   is   necessary   to   relieve
30    overcrowding.
31        (c)  To   establish   diagnostic,   classification    and
 
                            -2-                LRB9206325RCcd
 1    rehabilitation  services  and programs at the county jail and
 2    such other facilities over which it  has  jurisdiction  under
 3    subsection (a) of this Section as may be appropriate.
 4        (d)  To  establish, whenever feasible, separate detention
 5    and commitment facilities and  utilize  the  facilities  over
 6    which  it  has  jurisdiction  under  subsection  (a)  of this
 7    Section in a manner which  provides  separate  detention  and
 8    commitment facilities.
 9        (e)  To require every prisoner in the Department's charge
10    to  be photographed for identification purposes each year and
11    at other times when the Department deems that the  prisoner's
12    appearance has dramatically changed.

14        Section   10.  The Unified Code of Corrections is amended
15    by changing Section 3-5-1 as follows:

16        (730 ILCS 5/3-5-1) (from Ch. 38, par. 1003-5-1)
17        Sec. 3-5-1. Master Record File.
18        (a)  The Department shall maintain a master  record  file
19    on  each  person  committed  to  it,  which shall contain the
20    following information:
21             (1)  all information from the committing court;
22             (2)  reception summary;
23             (3)  evaluation   and   assignment    reports    and
24        recommendations;
25             (4)  reports as to program assignment and progress;
26             (5)  reports   of   disciplinary   infractions   and
27        disposition;
28             (6)  any parole plan;
29             (7)  any parole reports;
30             (8)  the  date and circumstances of final discharge;
31        and any other  pertinent  data  concerning  the  person's
32        background,     conduct,    associations    and    family
 
                            -3-                LRB9206325RCcd
 1        relationships as may be required  by  the  Department.  A
 2        current  summary  index  shall be maintained on each file
 3        which shall include the person's known  active  and  past
 4        gang affiliations and ranks; and.
 5             (9)  a  photograph  of the person for identification
 6        purposes that the Department must  require  to  be  taken
 7        each  year  and  at other times when the Department deems
 8        that the person's appearance has dramatically changed.
 9        (b)  All files shall be confidential and access shall  be
10    limited  to authorized personnel of the Department. Personnel
11    of other correctional, welfare or  law  enforcement  agencies
12    may  have  access to files under rules and regulations of the
13    Department. The Department shall keep a record of all outside
14    personnel who have access to files, the files  reviewed,  any
15    file  material  copied,  and  the  purpose  of access. If the
16    Department or the Prisoner Review Board makes a determination
17    under this Code which affects the length  of  the  period  of
18    confinement  or  commitment,  the  committed  person  and his
19    counsel shall be advised of factual information  relied  upon
20    by  the  Department  or  Board  to  make  the  determination,
21    provided  that  the Department or Board shall not be required
22    to advise a person committed to  the  Juvenile  Division  any
23    such  information  which  in the opinion of the Department or
24    Board   would   be   detrimental   to   his   treatment    or
25    rehabilitation.
26        (c)  The  master  file  shall  be  maintained  at a place
27    convenient to its use  by  personnel  of  the  Department  in
28    charge of the person. When custody of a person is transferred
29    from  the  Department  to  another  department  or  agency, a
30    summary of the file  shall  be  forwarded  to  the  receiving
31    agency  with  such  other  information  required  by  law  or
32    requested  by  the  agency under rules and regulations of the
33    Department.
34        (d)  The master file of a person no longer in the custody
 
                            -4-                LRB9206325RCcd
 1    of the Department shall be placed on inactive status and  its
 2    use  shall  be restricted subject to rules and regulations of
 3    the Department.
 4        (e)  All  public  agencies  may  make  available  to  the
 5    Department  on  request  any  factual  data   not   otherwise
 6    privileged  as a matter of law in their possession in respect
 7    to individuals committed to the Department.

 9        Section  15.  The County Jail Act is amended by  changing
10    Section 6 as follows:

11        (730 ILCS 125/6) (from Ch. 75, par. 106)
12        Sec.  6.   The  warden  of  the  jail shall keep an exact
13    permanent  calendar  of  all  persons  committed   to   jail,
14    registering  the  name,  place  of  abode,  time,  cause  and
15    authority  of  their  commitment,  and the time and manner of
16    their discharge. The warden of the jail  must  require  every
17    person  committed  to  the county jail to be photographed for
18    identification purposes each year and at other times when the
19    warden deems that the prisoner's appearance has  dramatically
20    changed.
