-9- LRB9213222RCcdam02
1 degree murder committed during the course of either
2 aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual assault,
3 or aggravated kidnapping, the finding shall not invalidate
4 the verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the
5 criminal laws of the State; however, unless the State

28 (ii) If after trial or plea the court finds that the
29 minor committed an offense not covered by paragraph (a) of
30 this subsection (5), the conviction shall not invalidate the
31 verdict or the prosecution of the minor under the criminal
32 laws of this State; however, unless the State requests a
33 hearing for the purpose of sentencing the minor under Chapter
34 V of the Unified Code of Corrections, the Court must proceed
-11- LRB9213222RCcdam02
1 under Sections 5-705 and 5-710 of this Article. To request a
2 hearing, the State must file a written motion within 10 days
3 following the entry of a finding or the return of a verdict.

9 consider among other matters: (a) whether there is evidence
10 that the offense was committed in an aggressive and
11 premeditated manner; (b) the age of the minor; (c) the
12 previous delinquent history of the minor; (d) whether there
13 are facilities particularly available to the Juvenile Court

15 treatment and rehabilitation of the minor; (e) whether the
16 security of the public requires sentencing under Chapter V of
17 the Unified Code of Corrections; and (f) whether the minor
18 possessed a deadly weapon when committing the offense. The
19 rules of evidence shall be the same as if at trial. If after

22 then the court shall sentence the minor accordingly having
23 available to it any or all dispositions so prescribed.
24 (6) The definition of delinquent minor under Section
25 5-120 of this Article shall not apply to any minor who,
26 pursuant to subsection (1), (2), or (3) or Section 5-805, or
27 5-810, has previously been placed under the jurisdiction of
28 the criminal court and has been convicted of a crime under an
29 adult criminal or penal statute. Such a minor shall be
30 subject to prosecution under the criminal laws of this State.
31 (7) The procedures set out in this Article for the
32 investigation, arrest and prosecution of juvenile offenders
33 shall not apply to minors who are excluded from jurisdiction
34 of the Juvenile Court, except that minors under 17 years of
-12- LRB9213222RCcdam02
1 age shall be kept separate from confined adults.

3 prosecution of any minor for an offense committed on or after
4 his or her 17th birthday even though he or she is at the time
5 of the offense a ward of the court.
6 (9) If an original petition for adjudication of wardship
7 alleges the commission by a minor 13 years of age or over of
8 an act that constitutes a crime under the laws of this State,
9 the minor, with the consent of his or her counsel, may, at
10 any time before commencement of the adjudicatory hearing,
11 file with the court a motion that criminal prosecution be
12 ordered and that the petition be dismissed insofar as the act
13 or acts involved in the criminal proceedings are concerned.
14 If such a motion is filed as herein provided, the court shall
15 enter its order accordingly.
16 (10) If a minor is subject to the provisions of
17 subsection (2) of this Section, any party including the minor
18 or the court sua sponte may, before trial, move for a hearing
19 for the purpose of trying and sentencing the minor as a
20 delinquent minor. To request a hearing, the party must file a
21 motion prior to trial. Reasonable notice of the motion shall
22 be given to all parties. On its own motion or upon the filing
23 of a motion by one of the parties including the minor, the
24 court shall conduct a hearing to determine whether the minor
25 should be tried and sentenced as a delinquent minor under
26 this Article. In making its determination, the court shall
27 consider among other matters:
28 (a) The age of the minor;
29 (b) Any previous delinquent or criminal history of the
30 minor;
31 (c) Any previous abuse or neglect history of the minor;
32 (d) Any mental health or educational history of the
33 minor, or both; and
34 (e) Whether there is probable cause to support the
-13- LRB9213222RCcdam02
1 charge, whether the minor is charged through accountability,
2 and whether there is evidence the minor possessed a deadly
3 weapon or caused serious bodily harm during the offense.
4 Any material that is relevant and reliable shall be
5 admissible at the hearing. In all cases, the judge shall
6 enter an order permitting prosecution under the criminal laws
7 of Illinois unless the judge makes a finding based on a
8 preponderance of the evidence that the minor would be
9 amenable to the care, treatment, and training programs
10 available through the facilities of the juvenile court based
11 on an evaluation of the factors listed in this subsection
12 (10).
