SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Illinois lawmakers have advanced a plan that would erase some arrest records for kids who weren’t charged or convicted of the alleged crime.
The House voted 74-40 on Wednesday to approve a proposal that would require the Illinois State Police to annually delete its arrest records for those minors. The measure would exclude alleged sex-related offenses, higher-level felony arrests and those occurring within the previous six months.
