Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Criminal Code of 1961.  Makes a  technical  change  in      
   the  statute  relating  to  the  offense of resisting or obstructing a

        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.                                                
          Adds reference to:                                                   
          720 ILCS 5/12-2                 from Ch. 38, par. 12-2               
          720 ILCS 5/12-4                 from Ch. 38, par. 12-4               
        Deletes everything. Amends the Criminal Code of 1961. Provides         
   that aggravated assault or aggravated battery also consists of an           
   assault or battery in which the defendant knows that the individual         
   assaulted or harmed was an employee of the Department of Human              
   Services supervising or controlling sexually dangerous persons or           
   sexually violent persons while the employee is engaged in the               
   execution of any of his or her official duties, or to prevent the           
   employee from performing his or her official duties, or in retaliation      
   for the employee performing his or her official duties, and the             
   assault or battery was committed other than by the discharge of a           
   firearm. Provides that it is aggravated battery for a sexually              
   dangerous person or sexually violent person in the custody of the           
   Department of Human Services to cause or attempt to cause an employee       
   of the Department of Human Services to come into contact with the           
   blood, seminal fluid, urine, or feces, by throwing or tossing that          
   fluid or material. Provides that aggravated battery of a person known       
   to be a peace officer engaged in his or her official duties, or to          
   prevent the officer from performing his or her official duties, or in       
   retaliation for the officer performing his or her official duties is a      
   Class 2 felony (rather than a Class 3 felony). Provides that a person       
   convicted  of  resisting  or  obstructing  a  peace  officer shall, in      
   addition to any other sentence imposed by the court, be sentenced to a      
   minimum of 48 consecutive hours of imprisonment or ordered to  perform      
   community service of at least 100 hours. Effective immediately.             
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 2.                                                
        Removes the provision  that  imprisonment  or  community  service      
   imposed  in connection with a conviction of resisting or obstructing a      
   peace officer is not subject to suspension.  Provides that if a person      
   is convicted of resisting or  obstructing  a  peace  officer  and  the      
   commission  of  the  offense was the proximate cause of an injury to a      
   peace officer, the person is guilty of a Class 4 felony.
