Public Act 102-0350 | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning criminal law.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The State Finance Act is amended by adding | ||||
Section 5.935 as follows: | ||||
(30 ILCS 105/5.935 new) | ||||
Sec. 5.935. The Department of Juvenile Justice | ||||
Reimbursement and Education Fund. | ||||
Section 10. The Juvenile Court Act of 1987 is amended by | ||||
changing Sections 5-750, 5-815, and 5-820 as follows:
| ||||
(705 ILCS 405/5-750)
| ||||
Sec. 5-750. Commitment to the Department of Juvenile | ||||
Justice. | ||||
(1) Except as provided in subsection (2) of this Section, | ||||
when any
delinquent has been adjudged a ward of the court under | ||||
this Act, the court may
commit him or her to the Department of | ||||
Juvenile Justice, if it
finds
that (a) his or her parents, | ||||
guardian or legal custodian are unfit or are
unable, for
some | ||||
reason other than financial circumstances alone, to care for, | ||||
protect,
train or discipline the minor, or are unwilling to do | ||||
so,
and the best interests of the minor and
the public will not |
be served by placement under Section 5-740,
or it is
necessary | ||
to ensure the protection of the public from the consequences | ||
of
criminal activity of the delinquent; and (b)
commitment to | ||
the Department of Juvenile Justice is the least
restrictive | ||
alternative based on evidence that efforts were
made to locate | ||
less restrictive alternatives to secure
confinement and the | ||
reasons why efforts were unsuccessful in
locating a less | ||
restrictive alternative to secure confinement. Before the | ||
court commits a minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice, | ||
it shall make a finding that secure confinement is necessary,
| ||
following a review of the following individualized factors: | ||
(A) Age of the minor. | ||
(B) Criminal background of the minor. | ||
(C) Review of results of any assessments of the minor,
| ||
including child centered assessments such as the CANS. | ||
(D) Educational background of the minor, indicating
| ||
whether the minor has ever been assessed for a learning
| ||
disability, and if so what services were provided as well | ||
as any disciplinary incidents at school. | ||
(E) Physical, mental and emotional health of the | ||
minor,
indicating whether the minor has ever been | ||
diagnosed with a
health issue and if so what services were | ||
provided and whether the minor was compliant with | ||
services. | ||
(F) Community based services that have been provided | ||
to
the minor, and whether the minor was compliant with the |
services, and the reason the services were unsuccessful. | ||
(G) Services within the Department of Juvenile Justice
| ||
that will meet the individualized needs of the minor.
| ||
(1.5) Before the court commits a minor to the Department | ||
of Juvenile Justice, the court must find reasonable efforts | ||
have been made to prevent or eliminate the need for the minor | ||
to be removed from the home, or reasonable efforts cannot, at | ||
this time, for good cause, prevent or eliminate the need for | ||
removal, and removal from home is in the best interests of the | ||
minor, the minor's family, and the public. | ||
(2) When a minor of the age of at least 13 years is | ||
adjudged delinquent
for the offense of first degree murder, | ||
the court shall declare the minor a
ward of the court and order | ||
the minor committed to the Department of
Juvenile Justice | ||
until the minor's 21st birthday, without the
possibility of | ||
aftercare release, furlough, or non-emergency authorized | ||
absence for a
period of 5 years from the date the minor was | ||
committed to the Department of
Juvenile Justice, except that | ||
the time that a minor spent in custody for the instant
offense | ||
before being committed to the Department of Juvenile Justice | ||
shall be considered as time
credited towards that 5 year | ||
period. Upon release from a Department facility, a minor | ||
adjudged delinquent for first degree murder shall be placed on | ||
aftercare release until the age of 21, unless sooner | ||
discharged from aftercare release or custodianship is | ||
otherwise terminated in accordance with this Act or as |
otherwise provided for by law. Nothing in this subsection (2) | ||
shall
preclude the State's Attorney from seeking to prosecute | ||
a minor as an adult as
an alternative to proceeding under this | ||
Act.
| ||
(3) Except as provided in subsection (2), the commitment | ||
of a
delinquent to the Department of Juvenile Justice shall be | ||
for an indeterminate term
which shall automatically terminate | ||
upon the delinquent attaining the age of 21
years or upon | ||
completion of that period for which an adult could be | ||
committed for the same act, whichever occurs sooner, unless | ||
the delinquent is sooner discharged from aftercare release or | ||
custodianship
is otherwise terminated in accordance with this | ||
Act or as otherwise provided
for by law.
| ||
(3.5) Every delinquent minor committed to the Department | ||
of Juvenile Justice under this Act shall be eligible for | ||
aftercare release without regard to the length of time the | ||
minor has been confined or whether the minor has served any | ||
minimum term imposed. Aftercare release shall be administered | ||
by the Department of Juvenile Justice, under the direction of | ||
the Director. Unless sooner discharged, the Department of | ||
Juvenile Justice shall discharge a minor from aftercare | ||
release upon completion of the following aftercare release | ||
terms: | ||
(a) One and a half years from the date a minor is | ||
released from a Department facility, if the minor was | ||
committed for a Class X felony; |
(b) One year from the date a minor is released from a | ||
Department facility, if the minor was committed for a | ||
Class 1 or 2 felony; and | ||
(c) Six months from the date a minor is released from a | ||
Department facility, if the minor was committed for a | ||
Class 3 felony or lesser offense. | ||
(4) When the court commits a minor to the Department of | ||
Juvenile Justice, it
shall order him or her conveyed forthwith | ||
to the appropriate reception station
or
other place designated | ||
by the Department of Juvenile Justice, and shall appoint the
| ||
Director of Juvenile Justice legal custodian of the
minor. The | ||
clerk of the court shall issue to the
Director of Juvenile | ||
Justice a certified copy of the order,
which constitutes proof | ||
of the Director's authority. No other process need
issue to
| ||
warrant the keeping of the minor.
| ||
(5) If a minor is committed to the Department of Juvenile | ||
Justice, the clerk of the court shall forward to the | ||
Department:
| ||
(a) the sentencing order and copies of committing | ||
petition;
| ||
(b) all reports;
| ||
(c) the court's statement of the basis for ordering | ||
the disposition;
| ||
(d) any sex offender evaluations; | ||
(e) any risk assessment or substance abuse treatment | ||
eligibility screening and assessment of the minor by an |
agent designated by the State to provide assessment | ||
services for the courts; | ||
(f) the number of days, if any, which the minor has | ||
been in custody and for which he or she is entitled to | ||
credit against the sentence, which information shall be | ||
provided to the clerk by the sheriff; | ||
(g) any medical or mental health records or summaries | ||
of the minor; | ||
(h) the municipality where the arrest of the minor | ||
occurred, the commission of the offense occurred, and the | ||
minor resided at the time of commission; | ||
(h-5) a report detailing the minor's criminal history | ||
in a manner and form prescribed by the Department of | ||
Juvenile Justice; and | ||
(i) all additional matters which the court directs the | ||
clerk to transmit ; and . | ||
(j) all police reports for sex offenses as defined by | ||
the Sex Offender Management Board Act.
| ||
(6) Whenever the Department of Juvenile Justice lawfully | ||
discharges from its
custody and
control a minor committed to | ||
it, the Director of Juvenile Justice shall petition the court | ||
for an order terminating his or her
custodianship. The | ||
custodianship shall terminate automatically 30 days after
| ||
receipt of the petition unless the court orders otherwise.
| ||
(7) If, while on aftercare release, a minor committed to | ||
the Department of Juvenile Justice who resides in this State |
is charged under the criminal laws of this State, the criminal | ||
laws of any other state, or federal law with an offense that | ||
could result in a sentence of imprisonment within the | ||
Department of Corrections, the penal system of any state, or | ||
the federal Bureau of Prisons, the commitment to the | ||
Department of Juvenile Justice and all rights and duties | ||
created by that commitment are automatically suspended pending | ||
final disposition of the criminal charge. If the minor is | ||
found guilty of the criminal charge and sentenced to a term of | ||
imprisonment in the penitentiary system of the Department of | ||
Corrections, the penal system of any state, or the federal | ||
Bureau of Prisons, the commitment to the Department of | ||
Juvenile Justice shall be automatically terminated. If the | ||
criminal charge is dismissed, the minor is found not guilty, | ||
or the minor completes a criminal sentence other than | ||
imprisonment within the Department of Corrections, the penal | ||
system of any state, or the federal Bureau of Prisons, the | ||
previously imposed commitment to the Department of Juvenile | ||
Justice and the full aftercare release term shall be | ||
automatically reinstated unless custodianship is sooner | ||
terminated. Nothing in this subsection (7) shall preclude the | ||
court from ordering another sentence under Section 5-710 of | ||
this Act or from terminating the Department's custodianship | ||
while the commitment to the Department is suspended. | ||

| ||
Sec. 5-815. Habitual Juvenile Offender.
| ||
(a) Definition. Any minor
having been twice adjudicated a | ||
delinquent minor for offenses which, had he or she
been | ||
prosecuted as an adult, would have been felonies under the | ||
laws of
this State, and who is thereafter adjudicated a | ||
delinquent minor for a
third time shall be adjudged an | ||
Habitual Juvenile Offender where:
| ||
1. the third adjudication is for an offense occurring | ||
after
adjudication on the second; and
| ||
2. the second adjudication was for an offense | ||
occurring after
adjudication on the first; and
| ||
3. the third offense occurred after January 1, 1980; | ||
and
| ||
4. the third offense was based upon the commission of | ||

degree murder, second
degree murder or involuntary | ||
manslaughter; criminal sexual assault or
aggravated | ||
criminal sexual assault; aggravated or heinous
battery | ||
involving permanent disability or disfigurement or great | ||
bodily
harm to the victim; burglary of a home or other | ||
residence intended for
use as a temporary or permanent | ||
dwelling place for human beings; home
invasion; robbery or | ||
armed robbery; or aggravated arson.
| ||
Nothing in this Section shall preclude the State's | ||
Attorney from
seeking to prosecute a minor as an adult as an |
alternative to
prosecution as an habitual juvenile offender.
| ||
A continuance under supervision authorized by Section | ||
5-615 of
this Act
shall not be permitted under this Section.
| ||
(b) Notice to minor. The State shall serve upon the minor | ||
written
notice of intention to prosecute under the provisions | ||
of this Section within
5 judicial days of the filing of any | ||
delinquency petition, adjudication
upon which would mandate | ||
the minor's disposition as an Habitual Juvenile
Offender.
| ||
(c) Petition; service. A notice to seek adjudication as an
| ||
Habitual Juvenile Offender shall be filed only by the State's | ||
Attorney.
| ||
The petition upon which such Habitual Juvenile Offender | ||
notice is
based shall contain the information and averments | ||
required for all
other delinquency petitions filed under this | ||
Act and its service shall
be according to the provisions of | ||
this Act.
| ||
No prior adjudication shall be alleged in the petition.
| ||
(d) Trial. Trial on such petition shall be by jury unless | ||
the minor
demands, in open court and with advice of counsel, a | ||
trial by the court
without jury.
| ||
Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of | ||
this
Act concerning delinquency proceedings generally shall be | ||
applicable to
Habitual Juvenile Offender proceedings.
| ||
(e) Proof of prior adjudications. No evidence or other | ||
disclosure of prior
adjudications shall be presented
to the | ||
court or jury during any adjudicatory hearing provided for |
under this
Section unless otherwise permitted by the issues | ||
properly raised in such
hearing. In the event the minor who is | ||
the subject of these
proceedings elects to testify on his or | ||
her own behalf, it shall be competent to
introduce evidence, | ||
for purposes of impeachment, that he or she has previously
| ||
been adjudicated a delinquent minor upon facts which, had he | ||
been tried as an
adult, would have resulted in his conviction | ||
of a felony or of any offense
that involved dishonesty or false | ||
statement. Introduction of
such evidence shall be according to | ||
the rules and procedures applicable to
the impeachment of an | ||
adult defendant by prior conviction.
| ||
After an admission of the facts in the petition or | ||
adjudication of
delinquency, the State's Attorney may file | ||
with the court a verified
written statement signed by the | ||
State's Attorney concerning any prior
adjudication of an | ||
offense set forth in subsection (a) of this Section
which | ||
offense would have been a felony or of any offense that | ||
involved
dishonesty or false statement had the minor been | ||
tried as an adult.
| ||
The court shall then cause the minor to be brought before | ||
it; shall
inform him or her of the allegations of the statement | ||
so filed, and of his
or her right to a hearing before the court | ||
on the issue of such prior
adjudication and of his right to | ||
counsel at such hearing; and unless the
minor admits such | ||
adjudication, the court shall hear and determine such
issue, | ||
and shall make a written finding thereon.
|
A duly authenticated copy of the record of any such | ||
alleged prior
adjudication shall be prima facie evidence of | ||
such prior adjudication or of
any offense that involved | ||
dishonesty or false statement.
| ||
Any claim that a previous adjudication offered by the | ||
State's
Attorney is not a former adjudication of an offense | ||
which, had the minor
been prosecuted as an adult, would have | ||
resulted in his conviction of a
felony or of any offense that | ||
involved dishonesty or false statement, is
waived unless duly | ||
raised at the hearing on such
adjudication, or unless the | ||
State's Attorney's proof shows that such
prior adjudication | ||
was not based upon proof of what would have been a
felony.
| ||
(f) Disposition. If the court finds that the prerequisites | ||
established in
subsection (a)
of this Section have been | ||
proven, it shall adjudicate the minor a an Habitual
Juvenile | ||
Offender and commit him or her him to the Department of | ||
Juvenile Justice for a period of time as provided in | ||
subsection (3) of Section 5-750, subject to the target release | ||
date provisions as provided in subsection (c) of Section | ||
3-2.5-85 of the Unified Code of Corrections. until his 21st | ||

furlough, | ||
or non-emergency authorized absence.
However, the minor shall | ||
be entitled to earn one day of good conduct credit
for each day | ||
served as reductions against the period of his confinement.
| ||
Such good conduct credits shall be earned or revoked according | ||
to the
procedures applicable to the allowance and revocation |
of good conduct
credit for adult prisoners serving determinate | ||
sentences for felonies.
| ||
For purposes of determining good conduct credit, | ||
commitment as an Habitual
Juvenile Offender shall be | ||
considered a determinate commitment, and the
difference | ||
between the date of the commitment and the minor's 21st | ||
birthday
shall be considered the determinate period of his | ||
confinement.

Sec. 5-820. Violent Juvenile Offender.
| ||
(a) Definition. A minor having
been previously adjudicated | ||

she been | ||
prosecuted as an adult, would have been a Class 2 or greater | ||
felony
involving the use or
threat of physical force or | ||
violence against an individual or a Class 2 or
greater felony | ||
for
which an element of the offense is possession or use of a | ||

| ||
(d) Trial. Trial on the petition shall be by jury unless | ||
the minor demands,
in open court and with advice of counsel, a | ||
trial by the court without a jury.
| ||
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, the | ||
provisions of this Act
concerning delinquency proceedings | ||
generally shall be applicable to Violent

been adjudicated a delinquent minor upon facts which, had
the | ||
minor been tried as an adult, would have resulted in the | ||
minor's conviction
of a felony or of any offense that involved | ||
dishonesty or false statement.
Introduction of such evidence | ||
shall be according to the rules and

| ||
A duly authenticated copy of the record of any alleged | ||
prior
adjudication shall be prima facie evidence of the prior | ||
adjudication or of any

|
Any claim that a previous adjudication offered by the | ||
State's Attorney is not
a former adjudication of an offense | ||
which, had the minor been prosecuted as an
adult, would have | ||
resulted in his or her conviction of a Class 2 or greater
| ||
felony involving the
use or threat of force or violence, or a | ||
firearm, a felony or of any offense
that involved dishonesty | ||
or false statement is waived unless duly raised
at the hearing | ||
on the adjudication, or unless the State's Attorney's proof
| ||
shows that the prior adjudication was not based upon proof of | ||
what would have
been a felony.
| ||
(f) Disposition. If the court finds that the prerequisites | ||
established in
subsection (a) of this Section have been | ||
proven, it shall adjudicate the minor
a Violent Juvenile | ||
Offender and commit the minor to the Department of
Juvenile | ||

Attorney from seeking
to prosecute a minor as a habitual | ||
juvenile offender or as an adult as an
alternative to | ||
prosecution as a Violent Juvenile Offender.

purposes of screening
and evaluating
persons committed to | ||
its custody who have alcohol or drug problems. The
pilot | ||
program shall require the pupillometer technology to be | ||

less than the time needed to retire any revenue bonds
used | ||
to finance the project, but not to exceed 40 years. The | ||
lease may
grant to the State the option to purchase the | ||
structure outright.
| ||

relevant information by oral argument or testimony of victims | ||
and concerned citizens, or both, in writing, or on film, video | ||
tape or other electronic means or in the form of a recording to |
the Department for its consideration. The State's Attorney may | ||
waive the written notice of the target release date at any | ||
time. Upon written request of the State's Attorney's office, | ||
provided the request is received within 15 days of receipt of | ||
the written notice of the target release date, the Department | ||
shall hear protests to aftercare release. If a State's | ||
Attorney requests a protest hearing, the committed youth's | ||
attorney or other representative shall also receive notice of | ||
the request and a copy of any information submitted by the | ||
State's Attorney. This hearing shall take place prior to the | ||
youth's aftercare release. The Department shall schedule the | ||
protest hearing date, providing at least 15 days' notice to | ||

the Department shall promptly notify the State's Attorney of | ||
the new date. | ||

youth, the youth's attorney, any third party, or any other | ||
person containing any information from the victim or from a | ||
person related to the victim by blood, adoption, or marriage | ||
who has written objections, testified at any hearing, or | ||
submitted audio or visual objections to the youth's aftercare | ||
release, unless provided with a waiver from that objecting |
party. The Department shall not release the names or addresses | ||
of any person on its victim registry to any other person except | ||
the victim, a law enforcement agency, or other victim | ||
notification system. | ||

this Section shall be in the form designated by the | ||
Department. The recording shall be both visual and aural. | ||
Every voice on the recording and person present shall be | ||
identified and the recording shall contain either a visual or | ||
aural statement of the person submitting the recording, the | ||
date of the recording, and the name of the youth whose | ||
aftercare release is being considered. The recordings shall be | ||
retained by the Department and shall be considered during any | ||
subsequent aftercare release decision if the victim or State's | ||
Attorney submits in writing a declaration clearly identifying | ||
the recording as representing the position of the victim or | ||
State's Attorney regarding the release of the youth. | ||
(j) The Department shall not release a youth eligible for | ||
aftercare release if it determines that: | ||
(1) there is a substantial risk that he or she will not | ||
conform to reasonable conditions of aftercare release; | ||
(2) his or her release at that time would deprecate | ||
the seriousness of his or her offense or promote | ||
disrespect for the law; or | ||
(3) his or her release would have a substantially |
adverse effect on institutional discipline. | ||
(k) The Department shall render its release decision and | ||
shall state the basis therefor both in the records of the | ||
Department and in written notice to the youth who was | ||
considered for aftercare release. In its decision, the | ||

reconsideration of aftercare release not less frequently than | ||
once each year. | ||

Sec. 3-6-2. Institutions and facility administration.
| ||
(a) Each institution and facility of the Department shall | ||
be
administered by a chief administrative officer appointed by
| ||
the Director. A chief administrative officer shall be
| ||
responsible for all persons assigned to the institution or
| ||
facility. The chief administrative officer shall administer
| ||
the programs of the Department for the custody and treatment
| ||
of such persons.
| ||
(b) The chief administrative officer shall have such | ||
assistants
as the Department may assign.
| ||
(c) The Director or Assistant Director shall have the
| ||
emergency powers to temporarily transfer individuals without
| ||
formal procedures to any State, county, municipal or regional
| ||
correctional or detention institution or facility in the |
State,
subject to the acceptance of such receiving institution | ||
or
facility, or to designate any reasonably secure place in | ||
the
State as such an institution or facility and to make | ||
transfers
thereto. However, transfers made under emergency | ||
powers shall
be reviewed as soon as practicable under Article | ||
8, and shall
be subject to Section 5-905 of the Juvenile Court | ||
Act of
1987. This Section shall not apply to transfers to the | ||
Department of
Human Services which are provided for under
| ||
Section 3-8-5 or Section 3-10-5.
| ||
(d) The Department of Juvenile Justice shall provide | ||
educational programs for all
committed youth persons so that | ||
all youth persons have an opportunity to
attain the | ||
achievement level equivalent to the completion of
the twelfth | ||
grade in the public school system in this State.
Other higher | ||
levels of attainment shall be encouraged and
professional | ||
instruction shall be maintained wherever possible.
The | ||
Department may establish programs of mandatory education and | ||
may
establish rules and regulations for the administration of | ||
such programs.
A person committed to the Department of | ||
Corrections who, during the period of his or her
| ||
incarceration, participates in an educational program provided | ||
by or through
the Department of Corrections and through that | ||
program is awarded or earns the number of
hours of credit | ||
required for the award of an associate, baccalaureate, or
| ||
higher degree from a community college, college, or university | ||
located in
Illinois shall reimburse the State, through the |
Department of Corrections , for the costs
incurred by the State | ||
in providing that person during his or her incarceration
with | ||
the education that qualifies him or her for the award of that | ||
degree. The
costs for which reimbursement is required under | ||
this subsection shall be
determined and computed by the | ||
Department of Corrections under rules and regulations that
it | ||
shall establish for that purpose. However, interest at the | ||
rate of 6%
per annum shall be charged on the balance of those | ||
costs from time to time
remaining unpaid, from the date of the | ||
person's parole, mandatory supervised
release, or release | ||
constituting a final termination of his or her commitment
to | ||
the Department of Corrections until paid.
| ||
(d-5) A person committed to the Department is entitled to | ||
confidential testing for infection with human immunodeficiency | ||
virus (HIV) and to counseling in connection with such testing, | ||
with no copay to the committed person. A person committed to | ||
the Department who has tested positive for infection with HIV | ||
is entitled to medical care while incarcerated, counseling, | ||
and referrals to support services, in connection with that | ||
positive test result. Implementation of this subsection (d-5) | ||
is subject to appropriation.
| ||
(e) A person committed to the Department who becomes in | ||
need
of medical or surgical treatment but is incapable of | ||
giving
consent thereto shall receive such medical or surgical | ||
treatment
by the chief administrative officer consenting on | ||
the person's behalf.
Before the chief administrative officer |
consents, he or she shall
obtain the advice of one or more | ||
physicians licensed to practice medicine
in all its branches | ||
in this State. If such physician or physicians advise:
| ||
(1) that immediate medical or surgical treatment is | ||
required
relative to a condition threatening to cause | ||
death, damage or
impairment to bodily functions, or | ||
disfigurement; and
| ||
(2) that the person is not capable of giving consent | ||
to such treatment;
the chief administrative officer may | ||
give consent for such
medical or surgical treatment, and | ||
such consent shall be
deemed to be the consent of the | ||
person for all purposes,
including, but not limited to, | ||
the authority of a physician
to give such treatment. | ||
(e-5) If a physician providing medical care to a committed | ||
person on behalf of the Department advises the chief | ||
administrative officer that the committed person's mental or | ||
physical health has deteriorated as a result of the cessation | ||
of ingestion of food or liquid to the point where medical or | ||
surgical treatment is required to prevent death, damage, or | ||
impairment to bodily functions, the chief administrative | ||
officer may authorize such medical or surgical treatment.
| ||
(f) In the event that the person requires medical care and
| ||
treatment at a place other than the institution or facility,
| ||
the person may be removed therefrom under conditions | ||
prescribed
by the Department. Neither the Department of | ||
Corrections nor the Department of Juvenile Justice may require |
a committed person or person committed to any facility | ||
operated by the Department of Juvenile Justice, as set
forth | ||
in Section 3-2.5-15 of this Code, to pay any co-payment for | ||
receiving medical or dental services.
| ||
(f-5) The Department shall comply with the Health Care | ||
Violence Prevention Act. | ||
(g) Any person having sole custody of a child at
the time | ||
of commitment or any woman giving birth to a child after
her | ||
commitment, may arrange through the Department of Children
and | ||
Family Services for suitable placement of the child outside
of | ||
the Department of Corrections. The Director of the Department
| ||
of Corrections may determine that there are special reasons | ||
why
the child should continue in the custody of the mother | ||
until the
child is 6 years old.
| ||
(h) The Department may provide Family Responsibility | ||
Services which
may consist of, but not be limited to the | ||
following:
| ||
(1) family advocacy counseling;
| ||
(2) parent self-help group;
| ||
(3) parenting skills training;
| ||
(4) parent and child overnight program;
| ||
(5) parent and child reunification counseling, either | ||
separately or
together, preceding the inmate's release; | ||
and
| ||
(6) a prerelease reunification staffing involving the | ||
family advocate,
the inmate and the child's counselor, or |
both and the inmate.
| ||
(i) (Blank).
| ||
(j) Any person convicted of a sex offense as defined in the | ||
Sex Offender
Management Board Act shall be required to receive | ||
a sex offender evaluation
prior to release into the community | ||
from the Department of Corrections. The
sex offender | ||
evaluation shall be conducted in conformance with the | ||
standards
and guidelines developed under
the Sex Offender | ||
Management Board Act and by an evaluator approved by the
| ||
Board.
| ||
(k) Any minor committed to the Department of Juvenile | ||
Justice
for a sex offense as defined by the Sex Offender | ||
Management Board Act shall be
required to undergo sex offender | ||
treatment by a treatment provider approved by
the Board and | ||
conducted in conformance with the Sex Offender Management | ||
Board
Act.
| ||
(l) Prior to the release of any inmate committed to a | ||
facility of the Department or the Department of Juvenile | ||
Justice, the Department must provide the inmate with | ||
appropriate information verbally, in writing, by video, or | ||
other electronic means, concerning HIV and AIDS. The | ||
Department shall develop the informational materials in | ||
consultation with the Department of Public Health. At the same | ||
time, the Department must also offer the committed person the | ||
option of testing for infection with human immunodeficiency | ||
virus (HIV), with no copayment for the test. Pre-test |
information shall be provided to the committed person and | ||
informed consent obtained as required in subsection (d) of | ||
Section 3 and Section 5 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. The | ||
Department may conduct opt-out HIV testing as defined in | ||
Section 4 of the AIDS Confidentiality Act. If the Department | ||
conducts opt-out HIV testing, the Department shall place signs | ||
in English, Spanish and other languages as needed in multiple, | ||
highly visible locations in the area where HIV testing is | ||
conducted informing inmates that they will be tested for HIV | ||
unless they refuse, and refusal or acceptance of testing shall | ||
be documented in the inmate's medical record. The Department | ||
shall follow procedures established by the Department of | ||
Public Health to conduct HIV testing and testing to confirm | ||
positive HIV test results. All testing must be conducted by | ||
medical personnel, but pre-test and other information may be | ||
provided by committed persons who have received appropriate | ||
training. The Department, in conjunction with the Department | ||
of Public Health, shall develop a plan that complies with the | ||
AIDS Confidentiality Act to deliver confidentially all | ||
positive or negative HIV test results to inmates or former | ||
inmates. Nothing in this Section shall require the Department | ||
to offer HIV testing to an inmate who is known to be infected | ||
with HIV, or who has been tested for HIV within the previous | ||
180 days and whose documented HIV test result is available to | ||
the Department electronically. The
testing provided under this | ||
subsection (l) shall consist of a test approved by the |
Illinois Department of Public Health to determine the presence | ||
of HIV infection, based upon recommendations of the United | ||
States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If the test | ||
result is positive, a reliable supplemental test based upon | ||
recommendations of the United States Centers for Disease | ||
Control and Prevention shall be
administered.
| ||
Prior to the release of an inmate who the Department knows | ||
has tested positive for infection with HIV, the Department in | ||
a timely manner shall offer the inmate transitional case | ||
management, including referrals to other support services.
| ||
(m) The chief administrative officer of each institution | ||
or facility of the Department shall make a room in the | ||
institution or facility available for substance use disorder | ||
services to be provided to committed persons on a voluntary | ||
basis. The services shall be provided for one hour once a week | ||
at a time specified by the chief administrative officer of the | ||
institution or facility if the following conditions are met: | ||
(1) the substance use disorder service contacts the | ||
chief administrative officer to arrange the meeting; | ||
(2) the committed person may attend the meeting for | ||
substance use disorder services only if the committed | ||
person uses pre-existing free time already available to | ||
the committed person; | ||
(3) all disciplinary and other rules of the | ||
institution or facility remain in effect; | ||
(4) the committed person is not given any additional |
privileges to attend substance use disorder services; | ||
(5) if the substance use disorder service does not | ||
arrange for scheduling a meeting for that week, no | ||
substance use disorder services shall be provided to the | ||
committed person in the institution or facility for that | ||
week; | ||
(6) the number of committed persons who may attend a | ||
substance use disorder meeting shall not exceed 40 during | ||
any session held at the correctional institution or | ||
facility; | ||
(7) a volunteer seeking to provide substance use | ||
disorder services under this subsection (m) must submit an | ||
application to the Department of Corrections under | ||
existing Department rules and the Department must review | ||
the application within 60 days after submission of the | ||
application to the Department; and | ||
(8) each institution and facility of the Department | ||
shall manage the substance use disorder services program | ||
according to its own processes and procedures. | ||
For the purposes of this subsection (m), "substance use | ||
disorder services" means recovery services for persons with | ||
substance use disorders provided by volunteers of recovery | ||
support services recognized by the Department of Human | ||
Services. | ||

county jail or while in pre-trial detention in a county | ||
jail, the sentence imposed upon conviction for the offense | ||
of possessing contraband in a penal institution shall be | ||
served consecutively to the sentence imposed for the | ||
offense in which the person is serving sentence in the | ||
county jail or serving pretrial detention, regardless of | ||
the order in which the judgments of conviction are | ||
entered. | ||
(11) If a person is sentenced for a violation of bail | ||
bond under Section 32-10 of the Criminal Code of 1961 or | ||
the Criminal Code of 2012, any sentence imposed for that | ||
violation shall be served
consecutive to the sentence | ||
imposed for the charge for which bail had been
granted and | ||
with respect to which the defendant has been convicted. | ||
(e) Consecutive terms; subsequent non-Illinois term. If an | ||
Illinois court has imposed a
sentence of imprisonment on a | ||
defendant and the defendant is subsequently sentenced to a |
term of imprisonment by a court of another state or a federal | ||
court, then the Illinois sentence shall run consecutively to | ||
the sentence imposed by the court of the other state or the | ||
federal court. That same Illinois court, however, may order | ||
that the Illinois sentence run concurrently with the sentence | ||
imposed by the court of the other state or the federal court, | ||
but only if the defendant applies to that same Illinois court | ||
within 30 days after the sentence imposed by the court of the | ||
other state or the federal court is finalized. | ||
(f) Consecutive terms; aggregate maximums and minimums. | ||
The aggregate maximum
and aggregate minimum of consecutive | ||
sentences shall be determined as follows: | ||
(1) For sentences imposed under law in effect prior to | ||
February 1, 1978, the
aggregate maximum of consecutive | ||
sentences shall not exceed the maximum term authorized | ||
under Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of | ||
Chapter V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. The | ||
aggregate minimum period of consecutive sentences shall | ||
not exceed the highest minimum term authorized under | ||
Section 5-8-1 (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1) or Article 4.5 of Chapter | ||
V for the 2 most serious felonies involved. When sentenced | ||
only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||
consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||
Class A misdemeanor. | ||
(2) For sentences imposed under the law in effect on | ||
or after February 1, 1978,
the aggregate of consecutive |
sentences for offenses that were committed as part of a | ||
single
course of conduct during which there was no | ||
substantial change in the nature of the criminal objective | ||
shall not exceed the sum of the maximum terms authorized | ||
under Article 4.5 of Chapter V for the 2 most serious | ||
felonies involved, but no such limitation shall apply for | ||
offenses that were not committed as part of a single | ||
course of conduct during which there was no substantial | ||
change in the nature of the criminal objective. When | ||
sentenced only for misdemeanors, a defendant shall not be | ||
consecutively sentenced to more than the maximum for one | ||
Class A misdemeanor.
| ||
(g) Consecutive terms; manner served. In determining the | ||
manner in which consecutive sentences of imprisonment, one or | ||
more of which is for a felony, will be served, the Department | ||
of Corrections shall treat the defendant as though he or she | ||
had been committed for a single term subject to each of the | ||
following: | ||
(1) The maximum period of a term of imprisonment shall | ||
consist of the aggregate
of the maximums of the imposed | ||
indeterminate terms, if any, plus the aggregate of the | ||
imposed determinate sentences for felonies, plus the | ||
aggregate of the imposed determinate sentences for | ||
misdemeanors, subject to subsection (f) of this Section. | ||
(2) The parole or mandatory supervised release term | ||
shall be as provided in
paragraph (e) of Section 5-4.5-50 |
(730 ILCS 5/5-4.5-50) for the most serious of the offenses | ||
involved. | ||
(3) The minimum period of imprisonment shall be the | ||
aggregate of the minimum
and determinate periods of | ||
imprisonment imposed by the court, subject to subsection | ||
(f) of this Section. | ||
(4) The defendant shall be awarded credit against the | ||
aggregate maximum term
and the aggregate minimum term of | ||
imprisonment for all time served in an institution since | ||
the commission of the offense or offenses and as a | ||
consequence thereof at the rate specified in
Section 3-6-3 | ||
(730 ILCS 5/3-6-3).
| ||
(h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, | ||
all sentences imposed by an Illinois court under this Code | ||
shall run concurrent to any and all sentences imposed under | ||
the Juvenile Court Act of 1987.
