18    on probation or conditional discharge for any violent
19    offense under the laws of this State, the laws of any other
20    state, or the laws of the United States;

22    First Time Weapon Offender Program under this Section;
23        (4) he or she has previously been adjudicated a
24    delinquent minor for the commission of a violent offense;
25        (5) he or she is 21 years of age or older; or
26        (6) he or she has an existing order of protection

 

 

HB2406 Enrolled- 36 -LRB102 13035 BMS 18378 b

1    issued against him or her.
2    (b-5) In considering whether a defendant shall be
3sentenced to the First Time Weapon Offender Program, the court
4shall consider the following:
5        (1) the age, immaturity, or limited mental capacity of
6    the defendant;
7        (2) the nature and circumstances of the offense;
8        (3) whether participation in the Program is in the
9    interest of the defendant's rehabilitation, including any
10    employment or involvement in community, educational,
11    training, or vocational programs;
12        (4) whether the defendant suffers from trauma, as
13    supported by documentation or evaluation by a licensed
14    professional; and
15        (5) the potential risk to public safety.
