1    In this Section, "electronic recording" includes motion
2picture, audiotape, videotape, or digital recording.

9minors.
10    (b) An oral, written, or sign language statement of a minor
11who, at the time of the commission of the offense was under the
12age of 18 17 years, made as a result of a custodial
13interrogation conducted at a police station or other place of
14detention on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act
15of the 93rd General Assembly shall be presumed to be
16inadmissible as evidence against the minor in any criminal
17proceeding or juvenile court proceeding, for an act that if
18committed by an adult would be brought under Section 9-1,
199-1.2, 9-2, 9-2.1, 9-3, 9-3.2, or 9-3.3, of the Criminal Code
20of 1961 or the Criminal Code of 2012, or under clause (d)(1)(F)
21of Section 11-501 of the Illinois Vehicle Code unless:
22        (1) an electronic recording is made of the custodial
23    interrogation; and
24        (2) the recording is substantially accurate and not
25    intentionally altered.
26    (c) Every electronic recording required under this Section

 

 

09800HB2404ham001- 3 -LRB098 07733 RLC 42707 a

1must be preserved until such time as the minor's adjudication
2for any offense relating to the statement is final and all
3direct and habeas corpus appeals are exhausted, or the
4prosecution of such offenses is barred by law.
5    (d) If the court finds, by a preponderance of the evidence,
6that the minor was subjected to a custodial interrogation in
7violation of this Section, then any statements made by the
8minor during or following that non-recorded custodial
9interrogation, even if otherwise in compliance with this
10Section, are presumed to be inadmissible in any criminal
11proceeding or juvenile court proceeding against the minor
12except for the purposes of impeachment.
13    (e) Nothing in this Section precludes the admission (i) of
14a statement made by the minor in open court in any criminal
15proceeding or juvenile court proceeding, before a grand jury,
16or at a preliminary hearing, (ii) of a statement made during a
17custodial interrogation that was not recorded as required by
18this Section because electronic recording was not feasible,
19(iii) of a voluntary statement, whether or not the result of a
20custodial interrogation, that has a bearing on the credibility
21of the accused as a witness, (iv) of a spontaneous statement
22that is not made in response to a question, (v) of a statement
23made after questioning that is routinely asked during the
24processing of the arrest of the suspect, (vi) of a statement
25made during a custodial interrogation by a suspect who
26requests, prior to making the statement, to respond to the

 

 

09800HB2404ham001- 4 -LRB098 07733 RLC 42707 a

1interrogator's questions only if an electronic recording is not
2made of the statement, provided that an electronic recording is
3made of the statement of agreeing to respond to the
4interrogator's question, only if a recording is not made of the
5statement, (vii) of a statement made during a custodial
6interrogation that is conducted out-of-state, (viii) of a
7statement given at a time when the interrogators are unaware
8that a death has in fact occurred, or (ix) of any other
9statement that may be admissible under law. The State shall
10bear the burden of proving, by a preponderance of the evidence,
11that one of the exceptions described in this subsection (e) is
12applicable. Nothing in this Section precludes the admission of
13a statement, otherwise inadmissible under this Section, that is
14used only for impeachment and not as substantive evidence.
15    (f) The presumption of inadmissibility of a statement made
16by a suspect at a custodial interrogation at a police station
17or other place of detention may be overcome by a preponderance
18of the evidence that the statement was voluntarily given and is
19reliable, based on the totality of the circumstances.
20    (g) Any electronic recording of any statement made by a
21minor during a custodial interrogation that is compiled by any
22law enforcement agency as required by this Section for the
23purposes of fulfilling the requirements of this Section shall
24be confidential and exempt from public inspection and copying,
25as provided under Section 7 of the Freedom of Information Act,
26and the information shall not be transmitted to anyone except

 

 

09800HB2404ham001- 5 -LRB098 07733 RLC 42707 a

1as needed to comply with this Section.
2    (h) A statement, admission, confession, or incriminating
3information made by or obtained from a minor related to the
4instant offense, as part of any behavioral health screening,
5assessment, evaluation, or treatment, whether or not
6court-ordered, shall not be admissible as evidence against the
7minor on the issue of guilt only in the instant juvenile court
8proceeding. The provisions of this subsection (h) are in
9addition to and do not override any existing statutory and
10constitutional prohibition on the admission into evidence in
11delinquency proceedings of information obtained during
12screening, assessment, or treatment.
13    The changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act of
14the 98th General Assembly apply to statements of a minor made
15on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act.

24should be detained, however, subsection (b-5) shall still be
25applicable where no such screening instrument is used or where
26the probation officer, detention officer (or other public

 

 

09800HB2404ham001- 7 -LRB098 07733 RLC 42707 a

1officer designated by the court in a county having 3,000,000 or

09800HB2404ham001- 8 -LRB098 07733 RLC 42707 a

16    time the minor was in detention.
17        (v) Violation of the time limit on detention in a
18    county jail or municipal lockup shall not, in and of

17adults and may not at any time be kept in the same cell, room,
18or yard with confined adults. This paragraph (d)(i) shall only
19apply to confinement pending an adjudicatory hearing and shall

16enter an order directing that the juvenile be confined in the
17county jail. However, any juvenile confined in the county jail
18under this provision shall be separated from adults who are
19confined in the county jail in such a manner that there will be
20no contact by sight, sound or otherwise between the juvenile
21and adult prisoners.
22    (f) For purposes of appearing in a physical lineup, the
23minor may be taken to a county jail or municipal lockup under
