Summary
Amends the Sexual Assault Incident Procedure Act. Provides that at law enforcement agencies that employ officers of more than one sex or gender who have the training in investigating sexual assault and sexual abuse cases under the Illinois Police Training Act and the Illinois State Police Law, a law enforcement officer shall inform a victim of sexual assault or sexual abuse of the opportunity to request to be interviewed by an officer of a particular sex or gender. Provides that if, when a request is made, no officer at that agency of the requested sex or gender with that training is reasonably available, the victim may consent to be interviewed by any available law enforcement officer with that training, decline to be interviewed, or choose to schedule an interview at another time when such an officer is expected to be available. Provides that if the victim requests an officer of a particular sex or gender at the scene, in the emergency department of a hospital, at an approved pediatric health care facility, or under exigent circumstances, the responding officer shall accommodate the request when an officer of the requested sex or gender is reasonably available. Provides that every law enforcement agency shall establish a policy that defines "reasonably available" for the purposes of the provisions. Makes other changes.
