CRIM CD-INVOL MANSLAUGHTER-CHI                                             

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Criminal Code of 1961. Provides that when  the  victim      
   of   involuntary  manslaughter  is  a  child  under  13  years  or  an      
   institutionalized severely or profoundly mentally retarded person, the      
   offense is involuntary homicide of a  child.  Penalty  is  a  Class  2      
   felony  for which the person may be sentenced to not less than 3 years      
   and not more than 20 years imprisonment.                                    
          FISCAL NOTE (Dept. of Corrections)                                   
          There will be a fiscal impact of $351,800.                           
          CORRECTIONAL NOTE                                                    
          No change from DOC fiscal note.                                      
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE                                           
          HB 859 fails to meet the definition of a State mandate.              
          JUDICIAL NOTE                                                        
          The bill would not increase the need for the number of judges.
