HB 1218

Abstract

Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Provides that the sentence of a person convicted of or placed on supervision for a sex offense committed on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act shall be an indeterminate sentence with respect to the maximum sentence imposed. Provides that not less than 30 days before the completion of the sentence imposed by the court for a person convicted of or placed on supervision for a sex offense, excluding any mandatory supervised release term, the court shall make a determination as to whether the offender poses a danger to the public. Provides that if the court determines that the offender poses a danger to the public, the court may extend the sentence of the offender for any period that the court deems appropriate. Provides that if the court had sentenced the sex offender to probation or conditional discharge or placed the sex offender on supervision and the court determines that continuing the sex offender on probation or conditional discharge or supervision would pose a danger to the public, the court may revoke the probation, conditional discharge, or supervision and resentence the sex offender to a term of imprisonment. Effective immediately.
