13 | | investigation or
hearing, or to there produce documentary |
14 | | evidence, if so ordered, or to
give evidence relative to the |
15 | | subject matter of that investigation or
hearing. Any failure to |

17 | | court as a contempt of court.

7 | | Sec. 5-8-1.4. Sentence
Modification Program. |
8 | | (a) A committed person as defined in subsection (c) of
|
9 | | Section 3-1-2 of this Code who is at least 50 years of age and
|
10 | | who has served at least 25 consecutive years of imprisonment in
|
11 | | a Department of Corrections institution or facility may
|
12 | | petition the Prisoner Review Board ("Board") for participation |
13 | | in the Sentence Modification
Program ("Program") as provided in |
14 | | this Section. The petition shall, in the first instance, be |
15 | | screened by the Department of Corrections, which shall |
16 | | determine whether the petitioner should be considered for |
17 | | participation in the Program. If the Department determines that |
18 | | the petitioner should be so considered, it shall submit the |
19 | | petition to the Board. The Board shall notify
the victims and |
20 | | the
families of the victims of the committed person's offenses
|
21 | | within 30 days after receiving the
petition and shall provide |
22 | | an opportunity for the victims and their families to submit |
23 | | statements in support of or opposition to the petitioner's |
24 | | participation in the Program. |
25 | | (b) The petition shall contain reasons why the committed |
|
| | HB3668 Engrossed | - 21 - | LRB098 13499 RLC 48022 b |
|
|
1 | | person should be granted participation in the Program and, when |
2 | | possible, should provide relevant documentation and statements |
3 | | of support. |
4 | | (c) The Board shall render its decision about the committed
|
5 | | person's petition within a reasonable time after the petition
|
6 | | has been filed. In deciding whether to grant or deny the
|
7 | | petitioner participation in the Program, the Board shall
|
8 | | consider whether the petitioner documents and demonstrates the
|
9 | | following: |
10 | | (1) successful participation in programs designed to
|
11 | | restore the committed person to a useful and productive
|
12 | | life upon release (including educational programs and
|
13 | | programs designed to deal with substance abuse or other
|
14 | | issues) and, if those programs are not available,
|
15 | | information demonstrating that the committed person has
|
16 | | attempted to participate in those programs or has engaged
|
17 | | in self-education programs, correspondence courses, or
|
18 | | other self-improvement efforts; |
19 | | (2) the genuine reform and changed behavior the
|
20 | | committed person has demonstrated over a period of years; |
21 | | (3) the committed person's remorse for actions that
|
22 | | have caused pain and suffering to victims of his or her
|
23 | | offenses; |
24 | | (4) the committed person's ability to socialize with
|
25 | | others in an acceptable manner; |
26 | | (5) the committed person's renunciation of criminal
|
|
| | HB3668 Engrossed | - 22 - | LRB098 13499 RLC 48022 b |
|
|
1 | | activity and gang affiliation if the committed person was a
|
2 | | member of a gang; and |
3 | | (6) an appropriate plan for living arrangements, which |
4 | | indicates if the person intends to seek admission to a |
5 | | nursing facility and the name of the facility if known,
|
6 | | financial support, and any medical care that will be needed
|
7 | | when the committed person returns to society. |
8 | | (d) The Board shall consider the petition in its entirety |
9 | | and shall not order the release of the committed person if it
|
10 | | finds that the committed person poses a threat to public
|
11 | | safety. If the Board determines that a committed person is
|
12 | | eligible for participation in the Program and that the
|
13 | | committed person should participate in the Program, the Board
|
14 | | shall set the conditions for the committed person's release
|
15 | | from prison before the expiration of his or her sentence. If |
16 | | the committed person's plan for living arrangements under |
17 | | paragraph (6) of subsection (c) of this Section includes |
18 | | relocation to a nursing facility, the Board shall notify the |
19 | | facility of the committed person's intent at least 30 days |
20 | | prior to the committed person's release. The Board shall, prior |
21 | | to the committed person's release, arrange for the committed |
22 | | person to be prescreened under Section 4.03 of the Illinois Act |
23 | | on the Aging and to make application for Medicaid Long Term |
24 | | Care services and the Board shall transmit to the facility |
25 | | prior to the committed person's admission documentation of the |
26 | | prescreening and the committed person's eligibility for |
|
| | HB3668 Engrossed | - 23 - | LRB098 13499 RLC 48022 b |
|
|
1 | | Medicaid Long Term Care services, and the committed person's |
2 | | prison and criminal history. The later shall serve to meet the |
3 | | nursing facilities obligation to perform a background check. |
4 | | When
granting participation in the Program, the Board may |
5 | | require
the committed person, for a period of time upon |
6 | | release, to
participate in community service or to wear an |
7 | | electronic
monitoring device, or both. Upon request of the |
8 | | victim or the victim's family, the Board may issue a protective |
9 | | order requiring the committed person to avoid all contact with |
10 | | specified persons. For the purpose of this Section, "nursing |
11 | | facility" means a facility licensed under the Nursing Home Care |
12 | | Act. |
13 | | (e) A petition for participation in the Program under the
|
14 | | provisions of this Section may be submitted annually, except
|
15 | | that if the Board denies a petition, it may order that the
|
16 | | committed person may not file a new petition for up to 3 years
|
17 | | from the date of denial, if the Board finds that it is not
|
18 | | reasonable to expect that it would grant a petition filed
|
19 | | earlier. |
20 | | (f) The action of a majority of the Board members voting on
|
21 | | the petition shall be the action of the Board. |
22 | | (g) The victim or the victim's family shall be notified of |
23 | | any public meeting at which the Board intends to deliberate on |
24 | | the committed person's participation in the Program. |
25 | | (h) Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory Act |
26 | | of the 98th General Assembly, notwithstanding any other law to |
|
| | HB3668 Engrossed | - 24 - | LRB098 13499 RLC 48022 b |
|
|
1 | | the contrary, all persons serving sentences in the Department |
2 | | are eligible to participate in the Sentence Modification |
3 | | Program. |
4 | | (730 ILCS 5/5-8-1.5 new) |
5 | | Sec. 5-8-1.5. Medical parole. Notwithstanding any other |
6 | | provision of law to the contrary, any committed person who is |
7 | | serving a sentence, including one who has not yet served the |
8 | | minimum term of the sentence, who is diagnosed as suffering |
9 | | from a terminal or debilitating condition so as to render the |
10 | | committed person unlikely to be physically capable of |
11 | | presenting a danger to society, may be released on medical |
12 | | parole to a hospital, hospice, other licensed inpatient |
13 | | facility, or suitable housing accommodation as specified by the |
14 | | Board. The Department shall promptly notify the Board upon |
15 | | receipt of medical information that a committed person has a |
16 | | diagnosis of a terminal or debilitating condition which |
17 | | prevents him or her from filing a petition on his or her own. |
18 | | As used in this Section, "other licensed inpatient facility" or |
19 | | "suitable housing accommodation" does not include a facility |
20 | | licensed under the Nursing Home Care Act.
