    AN ACT concerning criminal law.
 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Abused and Neglected Child Reporting Act is
amended by changing Section 3 as follows:
 
    (325 ILCS 5/3)  (from Ch. 23, par. 2053)
    Sec. 3. As used in this Act unless the context otherwise
requires:
    "Adult resident" means any person between 18 and 22 years
of age who resides in any facility licensed by the Department
under the Child Care Act of 1969. For purposes of this Act, the
criteria set forth in the definitions of "abused child" and
"neglected child" shall be used in determining whether an
adult resident is abused or neglected.
    "Agency" means a child care facility licensed under
Section 2.05 or Section 2.06 of the Child Care Act of 1969 and
includes a transitional living program that accepts children
and adult residents for placement who are in the guardianship
of the Department.
    "Blatant disregard" means an incident where the real,
significant, and imminent risk of harm would be so obvious to a
reasonable parent or caretaker that it is unlikely that a
reasonable parent or caretaker would have exposed the child to
the danger without exercising precautionary measures to
protect the child from harm. With respect to a person working
at an agency in his or her professional capacity with a child
or adult resident, "blatant disregard" includes a failure by
the person to perform job responsibilities intended to protect
the child's or adult resident's health, physical well-being,
or welfare, and, when viewed in light of the surrounding
circumstances, evidence exists that would cause a reasonable
person to believe that the child was neglected. With respect
to an agency, "blatant disregard" includes a failure to
implement practices that ensure the health, physical
well-being, or welfare of the children and adult residents
residing in the facility.
    "Child" means any person under the age of 18 years, unless
legally emancipated by reason of marriage or entry into a
branch of the United States armed services.
    "Department" means Department of Children and Family
Services.

town, village or other incorporated area or the sheriff of an

family member, or any person responsible for the child's
welfare, or any individual residing in the same home as the
child, or a paramour of the child's parent:
        (a) inflicts, causes to be inflicted, or allows to be
    inflicted upon such child physical injury, by other than
    accidental means, which causes death, disfigurement,
    impairment of physical or emotional health, or loss or
    impairment of any bodily function;
        (b) creates a substantial risk of physical injury to
    such child by other than accidental means which would be
    likely to cause death, disfigurement, impairment of
    physical or emotional health, or loss or impairment of any
    bodily function;
        (c) commits or allows to be committed any sex offense
    against such child, as such sex offenses are defined in
    the Criminal Code of 2012 or in the Wrongs to Children Act,
    and extending those definitions of sex offenses to include
    children under 18 years of age;
        (d) commits or allows to be committed an act or acts of
    torture upon such child;
        (e) inflicts excessive corporal punishment or, in the
    case of a person working for an agency who is prohibited

        (f) commits or allows to be committed the offense of
    female genital mutilation, as defined in Section 12-34 of

    substance as defined in Section 102 of the Illinois
    Controlled Substances Act in violation of Article IV of
    the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or in violation of
    the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act,
    except for controlled substances that are prescribed in
    accordance with Article III of the Illinois Controlled
    Substances Act and are dispensed to such child in a manner
    that substantially complies with the prescription; or
        (h) commits or allows to be committed the offense of
    involuntary servitude, involuntary sexual servitude of a
    minor, or trafficking in persons as defined in Section
    10-9 of the Criminal Code of 2012 against the child.
    A child shall not be considered abused for the sole reason
that the child has been relinquished in accordance with the
Abandoned Newborn Infant Protection Act.
    "Neglected child" means any child who is not receiving the
proper or necessary nourishment or medically indicated
treatment including food or care not provided solely on the
basis of the present or anticipated mental or physical
impairment as determined by a physician acting alone or in
consultation with other physicians or otherwise is not
receiving the proper or necessary support or medical or other
remedial care recognized under State law as necessary for a
child's well-being, or other care necessary for his or her

living arrangement for the child; or who is a newborn infant

102 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or a metabolite
thereof, with the exception of a controlled substance or
metabolite thereof whose presence in the newborn infant is the
result of medical treatment administered to the mother or the
newborn infant. A child shall not be considered neglected for
the sole reason that the child's parent or other person
responsible for his or her welfare has left the child in the
care of an adult relative for any period of time. A child shall
not be considered neglected for the sole reason that the child
has been relinquished in accordance with the Abandoned Newborn
Infant Protection Act. A child shall not be considered
neglected or abused for the sole reason that such child's
parent or other person responsible for his or her welfare
depends upon spiritual means through prayer alone for the
treatment or cure of disease or remedial care as provided
under Section 4 of this Act. A child shall not be considered
neglected or abused solely because the child is not attending

    subsection.
    (a-5) The possession of each individual film, videotape,
photograph, or other similar visual reproduction or depiction

and separate violation. This subsection (a-5) does not apply
to multiple copies of the same film, videotape, photograph, or
other similar visual reproduction or depiction by computer
that are identical to each other.
    (b)(1) It shall be an affirmative defense to a charge of
child pornography that the defendant reasonably believed,
under all of the circumstances, that the child was 18 years of
age or older or that the person was not a person with a severe
or profound intellectual disability but only where, prior to
the act or acts giving rise to a prosecution under this
Section, he or she took some affirmative action or made a
bonafide inquiry designed to ascertain whether the child was
18 years of age or older or that the person was not a person
with a severe or profound intellectual disability and his or
her reliance upon the information so obtained was clearly
reasonable.
    (1.5) Telecommunications carriers, commercial mobile
service providers, and providers of information services,
including, but not limited to, Internet service providers and

    (2) (Blank).
    (3) The charge of child pornography shall not apply to the
performance of official duties by law enforcement or
prosecuting officers or persons employed by law enforcement or
prosecuting agencies, court personnel or attorneys, nor to

workers. In any criminal proceeding, any property or material
that constitutes child pornography shall remain in the care,
custody, and control of either the State or the court. A motion
to view the evidence shall comply with subsection (e-5) of
this Section.

materials with the intent to disseminate them.
    (5) The charge of child pornography does not apply to a
person who does not voluntarily possess a film, videotape, or
visual reproduction or depiction by computer in which child
pornography is depicted. Possession is voluntary if the

visual reproduction or depiction for a sufficient time to be
able to terminate his or her possession.
    (6) Any violation of paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), or

solicited for, depicted in, or posed in any act of sexual

masochistic, or sadomasochistic abuse in a sexual context
shall be deemed a crime of violence.
    (c) If the violation does not involve a film, videotape,
or other moving depiction, a violation of paragraph (1), (4),
(5), or (7) of subsection (a) is a Class 1 felony with a
mandatory minimum fine of $2,000 and a maximum fine of

violation involves a film, videotape, or other moving
depiction, a violation of paragraph (2) of subsection (a) is a

subsection (a) is a Class X felony with a mandatory minimum
fine of $2,000 and a maximum fine of $100,000. Where the child
depicted is under the age of 13, a violation of paragraph (6)

depicted is under the age of 13, a person who commits a
violation of paragraph (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), or (7) of
subsection (a) where the defendant has previously been
convicted under the laws of this State or any other state of
the offense of child pornography, aggravated child
pornography, aggravated criminal sexual abuse, aggravated
criminal sexual assault, predatory criminal sexual assault of
a child, or any of the offenses formerly known as rape, deviate

age of 13 is an element of the offense to be resolved by the
trier of fact.

violation of this Section within 10 years of a prior
conviction, the court shall order a presentence psychiatric
examination of the person. The examiner shall report to the
court whether treatment of the person is necessary.

    (g) Re-enactment; findings; purposes.
        (1) The General Assembly finds and declares that:
            (i) Section 50-5 of Public Act 88-680, effective
        January 1, 1995, contained provisions amending the
        child pornography statute, Section 11-20.1 of the
        Criminal Code of 1961. Section 50-5 also contained
        other provisions.
            (ii) In addition, Public Act 88-680 was entitled
        "AN ACT to create a Safe Neighborhoods Law". (A)
        Article 5 was entitled JUVENILE JUSTICE and amended
        the Juvenile Court Act of 1987. (B) Article 15 was
        entitled GANGS and amended various provisions of the
        Criminal Code of 1961 and the Unified Code of
        Corrections. (C) Article 20 was entitled ALCOHOL ABUSE
        and amended various provisions of the Illinois Vehicle
        Code. (D) Article 25 was entitled DRUG ABUSE and
        amended the Cannabis Control Act and the Illinois
        Controlled Substances Act. (E) Article 30 was entitled
        FIREARMS and amended the Criminal Code of 1961 and the
        Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. (F) Article 35
        amended the Criminal Code of 1961, the Rights of Crime
        Victims and Witnesses Act, and the Unified Code of
        Corrections. (G) Article 40 amended the Criminal Code
        of 1961 to increase the penalty for compelling
        organization membership of persons. (H) Article 45
        created the Secure Residential Youth Care Facility
        Licensing Act and amended the State Finance Act, the
        Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Unified Code of
        Corrections, and the Private Correctional Facility
        Moratorium Act. (I) Article 50 amended the WIC Vendor
        Management Act, the Firearm Owners Identification Card
        Act, the Juvenile Court Act of 1987, the Criminal Code
        of 1961, the Wrongs to Children Act, and the Unified
        Code of Corrections.
            (iii) On September 22, 1998, the Third District
        Appellate Court in People v. Dainty, 701 N.E. 2d 118,
        ruled that Public Act 88-680 violates the single
        subject clause of the Illinois Constitution (Article
        IV, Section 8 (d)) and was unconstitutional in its
        entirety. As of the time this amendatory Act of 1999
        was prepared, People v. Dainty was still subject to
        appeal.
            (iv) Child pornography is a vital concern to the
        people of this State and the validity of future
        prosecutions under the child pornography statute of
        the Criminal Code of 1961 is in grave doubt.
        (2) It is the purpose of this amendatory Act of 1999 to
    prevent or minimize any problems relating to prosecutions
    for child pornography that may result from challenges to
    the constitutional validity of Public Act 88-680 by
    re-enacting the Section relating to child pornography that
    was included in Public Act 88-680.
        (3) This amendatory Act of 1999 re-enacts Section
    11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961, as it has been
    amended. This re-enactment is intended to remove any
    question as to the validity or content of that Section; it
    is not intended to supersede any other Public Act that
    amends the text of the Section as set forth in this
    amendatory Act of 1999. The material is shown as existing
    text (i.e., without underscoring) because, as of the time
    this amendatory Act of 1999 was prepared, People v. Dainty
    was subject to appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court.
        (4) The re-enactment by this amendatory Act of 1999 of
    Section 11-20.1 of the Criminal Code of 1961 relating to
    child pornography that was amended by Public Act 88-680 is
    not intended, and shall not be construed, to imply that
    Public Act 88-680 is invalid or to limit or impair any
    legal argument concerning whether those provisions were
    substantially re-enacted by other Public Acts.
