The Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 is 5 amended by changing Section 106B-5 as follows: 6 (725 ILCS 5/106B-5) 7 Sec. 106B-5. Testimony by a victim who is a child or a 8 person with a moderate, severe, or profound intellectual 9 disability or a person affected by a developmental disability. 10 (a) In a proceeding in the prosecution of an offense of 11 criminal sexual assault, predatory criminal sexual assault of 12 a child, aggravated criminal sexual assault, criminal sexual 13 abuse, aggravated criminal sexual abuse, aggravated battery, 14 or aggravated domestic battery, a court may order that the 15 testimony of a victim who is a child under the age of 18 years 16 or a person with a moderate, severe, or profound intellectual 17 disability or a person affected by a developmental disability 18 be taken outside the courtroom and shown in the courtroom by 19 means of a closed circuit television if: 20 (1) the testimony is taken during the proceeding; and 21 (2) the judge determines that testimony by the child 22 victim or victim with a moderate, severe, or profound 23 intellectual disability or victim affected by a HB3393 Enrolled - 2 - LRB104 08138 RLC 18184 b 1 developmental disability in the courtroom will result in 2 the child or person with a moderate, severe, or profound 3 intellectual disability or person affected by a 4 developmental disability suffering serious emotional 5 distress such that the child or person with a moderate, 6 severe, or profound intellectual disability or person 7 affected by a developmental disability cannot reasonably 8 communicate or that the child or person with a moderate, 9 severe, or profound intellectual disability or person 10 affected by a developmental disability will suffer severe 11 emotional distress that is likely to cause the child or 12 person with a moderate, severe, or profound intellectual 13 disability or person affected by a developmental 14 disability to suffer severe adverse effects. 15 (b) Only the prosecuting attorney, the attorney for the 16 defendant, and the judge may question the child or person with 17 a moderate, severe, or profound intellectual disability or 18 person affected by a developmental disability. 19 (c) The operators of the closed circuit television shall 20 make every effort to be unobtrusive. 21 (d) Only the following persons may be in the room with the 22 child or person with a moderate, severe, or profound 23 intellectual disability or person affected by a developmental 24 disability when the child or person with a moderate, severe, 25 or profound intellectual disability or person affected by a 26 developmental disability testifies by closed circuit HB3393 Enrolled - 3 - LRB104 08138 RLC 18184 b 1 television: 2 (1) the prosecuting attorney; 3 (2) the attorney for the defendant; 4 (3) the judge; 5 (4) the operators of the closed circuit television 6 equipment; and 7 (5) any person or persons whose presence, in the 8 opinion of the court, contributes to the well-being of the 9 child or person with a moderate, severe, or profound 10 intellectual disability or person affected by a 11 developmental disability, including a person who has dealt 12 with the child in a therapeutic setting concerning the 13 abuse, a parent or guardian of the child or person with a 14 moderate, severe, or profound intellectual disability or 15 person affected by a developmental disability, and court 16 security personnel. 17 (e) During the child's or person with a moderate, severe, 18 or profound intellectual disability or person affected by a 19 developmental disability's testimony by closed circuit 20 television, the defendant shall be in the courtroom and shall 21 not communicate with the jury if the cause is being heard 22 before a jury. 23 (f) The defendant shall be allowed to communicate with the 24 persons in the room where the child or person with a moderate, 25 severe, or profound intellectual disability or person affected 26 by a developmental disability is testifying by any appropriate HB3393 Enrolled - 4 - LRB104 08138 RLC 18184 b 1 electronic method. 2 (f-5) (Blank). There is a rebuttable presumption that the 3 testimony of a victim who is a child under 13 years of age 4 shall testify outside the courtroom and the child's testimony 5 shall be shown in the courtroom by means of a closed circuit 6 television. This presumption may be overcome if the defendant 7 can prove by clear and convincing evidence that the child 8 victim will not suffer severe emotional distress. 9 (f-6) Before the court permits the testimony of a victim 10 outside the courtroom that is to be shown in the courtroom by 11 means of a closed circuit television, the court must make a 12 finding that the testimony by means of closed circuit 13 television does not unduly prejudice the defendant. 14 (g) The provisions of this Section do not apply if the 15 defendant represents himself pro se. 16 (h) This Section may not be interpreted to preclude, for 17 purposes of identification of a defendant, the presence of 18 both the victim and the defendant in the courtroom at the same 19 time. 20 (i) This Section applies to prosecutions pending on or 21 commenced on or after the effective date of this amendatory 22 Act of 1994. 23 (j) For the purposes of this Section, "developmental 24 disability" includes, but is not limited to, cerebral palsy, 25 epilepsy, and autism. 26 (Source: P.A. 103-164, eff. 1-1-24 .)
