322	322	1 any charge listed in paragraphs (1) through (6.5), and it
323	323	2 is alleged that the defendant's pretrial release poses a
324	324	3 real and present threat to the safety of any person or
325	325	4 persons or the community, based on the specific
326	326	5 articulable facts of the case; or
327	327	6 (8) the person has a high likelihood of willful flight
328	328	7 to avoid prosecution and is charged with:
329	329	8 (A) Any felony described in subdivisions (a)(1)
330	330	9 through (a)(7) of this Section; or
331	331	10 (B) A felony offense other than a Class 4 offense.
332	332	11 (b) If the charged offense is a felony, as part of the
333	333	12 detention hearing, the court shall determine whether there is
334	334	13 probable cause the defendant has committed an offense, unless
335	335	14 a hearing pursuant to Section 109-3 of this Code has already
336	336	15 been held or a grand jury has returned a true bill of
337	337	16 indictment against the defendant. If there is a finding of no
338	338	17 probable cause, the defendant shall be released. No such
339	339	18 finding is necessary if the defendant is charged with a
340	340	19 misdemeanor.
341	341	20 (c) Timing of petition.
342	342	21 (1) A petition may be filed without prior notice to
343	343	22 the defendant at the first appearance before a judge, or
344	344	23 within the 21 calendar days, except as provided in Section
345	345	24 110-6, after arrest and release of the defendant upon
346	346	25 reasonable notice to defendant; provided that while such
347	347	26 petition is pending before the court, the defendant if

358	358	1 previously released shall not be detained.
359	359	2 (2) Upon filing, the court shall immediately hold a
360	360	3 hearing on the petition unless a continuance is requested.
361	361	4 If a continuance is requested and granted, the hearing
362	362	5 shall be held within 48 hours of the defendant's first
363	363	6 appearance if the defendant is charged with first degree
364	364	7 murder or a Class X, Class 1, Class 2, or Class 3 felony,
365	365	8 and within 24 hours if the defendant is charged with a
366	366	9 Class 4 or misdemeanor offense. The Court may deny or
367	367	10 grant the request for continuance. If the court decides to
368	368	11 grant the continuance, the Court retains the discretion to
369	369	12 detain or release the defendant in the time between the
370	370	13 filing of the petition and the hearing.
371	371	14 (d) Contents of petition.
372	372	15 (1) The petition shall be verified by the State and
373	373	16 shall state the grounds upon which it contends the
374	374	17 defendant should be denied pretrial release, including the
375	375	18 real and present threat to the safety of any person or
376	376	19 persons or the community, based on the specific
377	377	20 articulable facts or flight risk, as appropriate.
378	378	21 (2) If the State seeks to file a second or subsequent
379	379	22 petition under this Section, the State shall be required
380	380	23 to present a verified application setting forth in detail
381	381	24 any new facts not known or obtainable at the time of the
382	382	25 filing of the previous petition.

394	394	1 for pretrial release, and the State shall bear the burden of
395	395	2 proving by clear and convincing evidence that:
396	396	3 (1) the proof is evident or the presumption great that
397	397	4 the defendant has committed an offense listed in
398	398	5 subsection (a), and
399	399	6 (2) for offenses listed in paragraphs (1) through (7)
400	400	7 of subsection (a), the defendant poses a real and present
401	401	8 threat to the safety of any person or persons or the
402	402	9 community, based on the specific articulable facts of the
403	403	10 case, by conduct which may include, but is not limited to,
404	404	11 a forcible felony, the obstruction of justice,
405	405	12 intimidation, injury, or abuse as defined by paragraph (1)
406	406	13 of Section 103 of the Illinois Domestic Violence Act of
407	407	14 1986, and
408	408	15 (3) no condition or combination of conditions set
409	409	16 forth in subsection (b) of Section 110-10 of this Article

411	411	18 of any person or persons or the community, based on the
412	412	19 specific articulable facts of the case, for offenses
413	413	20 listed in paragraphs (1) through (7) of subsection (a), or
414	414	21 (ii) the defendant's willful flight for offenses listed in
415	415	22 paragraph (8) of subsection (a), and
416	416	23 (4) for offenses under subsection (b) of Section 407
417	417	24 of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act that are subject
418	418	25 to paragraph (1) of subsection (a), no condition or

430	430	1 Section 110-10 of this Article can mitigate the real and
431	431	2 present threat to the safety of any person or persons or
432	432	3 the community, based on the specific articulable facts of
433	433	4 the case, and the defendant poses a serious risk to not
434	434	5 appear in court as required.
435	435	6 (e-1) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (e), if
436	436	7 the defendant is charged with any of the following offenses,
437	437	8 then the burden is on the defendant to show by clear and
438	438	9 convincing evidence that the defendant's pretrial release does
439	439	10 not pose a real and present threat to the safety of any person
440	440	11 or persons or the community, based on the specific articulable
441	441	12 facts of the case:
442	442	13 (1) a violation of an order of protection issued under
443	443	14 Section 112A-14 of this Code or Section 214 of the
444	444	15 Illinois Domestic Violence Act of 1986, a stalking no
445	445	16 contact order under Section 80 of the Stalking No Contact
446	446	17 Order Act, or of a civil no contact order under Section 213
447	447	18 of the Civil No Contact Order Act; or
448	448	19 (2) domestic battery or aggravated domestic battery
449	449	20 under Section 12-3.2 or 12-3.3 of the Criminal Code of
450	450	21 2012.
451	451	22 (f) Conduct of the hearings.
452	452	23 (1) Prior to the hearing, the State shall tender to
453	453	24 the defendant copies of the defendant's criminal history
454	454	25 available, any written or recorded statements, and the
455	455	26 substance of any oral statements made by any person, if

466	466	1 relied upon by the State in its petition, and any police
467	467	2 reports in the prosecutor's possession at the time of the
468	468	3 hearing.
469	469	4 (2) The State or defendant may present evidence at the
470	470	5 hearing by way of proffer based upon reliable information.
471	471	6 (3) The defendant has the right to be represented by
472	472	7 counsel, and if he or she is indigent, to have counsel
473	473	8 appointed for him or her. The defendant shall have the
474	474	9 opportunity to testify, to present witnesses on his or her
475	475	10 own behalf, and to cross-examine any witnesses that are
476	476	11 called by the State. Defense counsel shall be given
477	477	12 adequate opportunity to confer with the defendant before
478	478	13 any hearing at which conditions of release or the
479	479	14 detention of the defendant are to be considered, with an
480	480	15 accommodation for a physical condition made to facilitate
481	481	16 attorney/client consultation. If defense counsel needs to
482	482	17 confer or consult with the defendant during any hearing
483	483	18 conducted via a two-way audio-visual communication system,
484	484	19 such consultation shall not be recorded and shall be
485	485	20 undertaken consistent with constitutional protections.
486	486	21 (3.5) A hearing at which pretrial release may be
487	487	22 denied must be conducted in person (and not by way of
488	488	23 two-way audio visual communication) unless the accused
489	489	24 waives the right to be present physically in court, the
490	490	25 court determines that the physical health and safety of
491	491	26 any person necessary to the proceedings would be

502	502	1 endangered by appearing in court, or the chief judge of
503	503	2 the circuit orders use of that system due to operational
504	504	3 challenges in conducting the hearing in person. Such
505	505	4 operational challenges must be documented and approved by
506	506	5 the chief judge of the circuit, and a plan to address the
507	507	6 challenges through reasonable efforts must be presented
508	508	7 and approved by the Administrative Office of the Illinois
509	509	8 Courts every 6 months.
510	510	9 (4) If the defense seeks to compel the complaining
511	511	10 witness to testify as a witness in its favor, it shall
512	512	11 petition the court for permission. When the ends of
513	513	12 justice so require, the court may exercise its discretion
514	514	13 and compel the appearance of a complaining witness. The
515	515	14 court shall state on the record reasons for granting a
516	516	15 defense request to compel the presence of a complaining
517	517	16 witness only on the issue of the defendant's pretrial
518	518	17 detention. In making a determination under this Section,
519	519	18 the court shall state on the record the reason for
520	520	19 granting a defense request to compel the presence of a
521	521	20 complaining witness, and only grant the request if the
522	522	21 court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the
523	523	22 defendant will be materially prejudiced if the complaining
524	524	23 witness does not appear. Cross-examination of a
525	525	24 complaining witness at the pretrial detention hearing for
526	526	25 the purpose of impeaching the witness' credibility is
527	527	26 insufficient reason to compel the presence of the witness.

538	538	1 In deciding whether to compel the appearance of a
539	539	2 complaining witness, the court shall be considerate of the
540	540	3 emotional and physical well-being of the witness. The
541	541	4 pre-trial detention hearing is not to be used for purposes
542	542	5 of discovery, and the post arraignment rules of discovery
543	543	6 do not apply. The State shall tender to the defendant,
544	544	7 prior to the hearing, copies, if any, of the defendant's
545	545	8 criminal history, if available, and any written or
546	546	9 recorded statements and the substance of any oral
547	547	10 statements made by any person, if in the State's
548	548	11 Attorney's possession at the time of the hearing.
549	549	12 (5) The rules concerning the admissibility of evidence
550	550	13 in criminal trials do not apply to the presentation and
551	551	14 consideration of information at the hearing. At the trial
552	552	15 concerning the offense for which the hearing was conducted
553	553	16 neither the finding of the court nor any transcript or
554	554	17 other record of the hearing shall be admissible in the
555	555	18 State's case-in-chief, but shall be admissible for
556	556	19 impeachment, or as provided in Section 115-10.1 of this
557	557	20 Code, or in a perjury proceeding.
558	558	21 (6) The defendant may not move to suppress evidence or
559	559	22 a confession, however, evidence that proof of the charged
560	560	23 crime may have been the result of an unlawful search or
561	561	24 seizure, or both, or through improper interrogation, is
562	562	25 relevant in assessing the weight of the evidence against
563	563	26 the defendant.

574	574	1 (7) Decisions regarding release, conditions of
575	575	2 release, and detention prior to trial must be
576	576	3 individualized, and no single factor or standard may be
577	577	4 used exclusively to order detention. Risk assessment tools
578	578	5 may not be used as the sole basis to deny pretrial release.
579	579	6 (g) Factors to be considered in making a determination of
580	580	7 dangerousness. The court may, in determining whether the
581	581	8 defendant poses a real and present threat to the safety of any
582	582	9 person or persons or the community, based on the specific
583	583	10 articulable facts of the case, consider, but shall not be
584	584	11 limited to, evidence or testimony concerning:
585	585	12 (1) The nature and circumstances of any offense
586	586	13 charged, including whether the offense is a crime of
587	587	14 violence, involving a weapon, or a sex offense.
588	588	15 (2) The history and characteristics of the defendant
589	589	16 including:
590	590	17 (A) Any evidence of the defendant's prior criminal
591	591	18 history indicative of violent, abusive or assaultive
592	592	19 behavior, or lack of such behavior. Such evidence may
593	593	20 include testimony or documents received in juvenile
594	594	21 proceedings, criminal, quasi-criminal, civil
595	595	22 commitment, domestic relations, or other proceedings.
596	596	23 (B) Any evidence of the defendant's psychological,
597	597	24 psychiatric or other similar social history which
598	598	25 tends to indicate a violent, abusive, or assaultive
599	599	26 nature, or lack of any such history.

612	612	3 nature of the threat.
613	613	4 (4) Any statements made by, or attributed to the
614	614	5 defendant, together with the circumstances surrounding
615	615	6 them.
616	616	7 (5) The age and physical condition of the defendant.
617	617	8 (6) The age and physical condition of any victim or
618	618	9 complaining witness.
619	619	10 (7) Whether the defendant is known to possess or have
620	620	11 access to any weapon or weapons.
621	621	12 (8) Whether, at the time of the current offense or any
622	622	13 other offense or arrest, the defendant was on probation,
623	623	14 parole, aftercare release, mandatory supervised release or
624	624	15 other release from custody pending trial, sentencing,
625	625	16 appeal or completion of sentence for an offense under
626	626	17 federal or state law.
627	627	18 (9) Any other factors, including those listed in
628	628	19 Section 110-5 of this Article deemed by the court to have a
629	629	20 reasonable bearing upon the defendant's propensity or
630	630	21 reputation for violent, abusive, or assaultive behavior,
631	631	22 or lack of such behavior.
632	632	23 (h) Detention order. The court shall, in any order for
633	633	24 detention:
634	634	25 (1) make a written finding summarizing the court's
635	635	26 reasons for concluding that the defendant should be denied
