Bill Title: Amends the Juvenile Court Act of 1987 and the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. Provides that an oral, written, or sign language statement of an accused made as a result of a custodial interrogation at a police station or other place of detention shall be presumed to be inadmissible as evidence against the accused in any criminal or juvenile court proceeding in which the accused is charged with the commission of an offense that is a homicide or a Class 1 felony or a Class X felony (rather than a homicide offense or a DUI offense in which the DUI was the proximate cause of death) unless: (1) an electronic recording is made of the custodial interrogation; and (2) the recording is substantially accurate and not intentionally altered. Allows the admissibility of a statement given at a time when the interrogators are unaware that the offense could be charged as a homicide or as a Class 1 felony or Class X felony.
