Illinois legislators pursue restrictions on search command restrictions after a botched attack in Chicago

Springfield, Ill. (Capitol News Illinois) – The police in Chicago carried out a search command to the wrong address more than six years ago, in which the social worker Anjanette Young was handcuffs and naked in her house when she prepared for the bed.

An Illinois House Committee revised on Tuesday, as Illinois police officers searched for the banned raid from 2019 at Young's Home, which included the ban on the ban on arrest warrants, which is often called “no -knock”.

“What happened to her did not have to happen and should never actually happen again,” said Bill Sponsor Rep. Came Buckner, D-Chicago. “Situations like this not only increase public trust, but also increase the risk of civil servants who enter an unknown environment without reliable intelligence.

The justice committee of the house voted 8: 5 for the farewell House bill 1611But the legislators of both parties express concerns about the logistics of the implementation of the new restrictions.

According to the proposed law, the police have to knock, announce themselves and answer the door for at least 30 seconds if they carry out an arrest warrant in an apartment. Entering a house without the police, which announces itself or waiting for an answer for 30 seconds, would only be allowed in emergency situations to prevent other damage or other damage.

However, the judges can unsubscribe to an exemption in order to allow “no -knoC” to receive commands if law enforcement successfully provides evidence that the announcement on the door would endanger the life or evidence of a person in the case.

The death of Breonna Taylor in Louisville 2020 triggered national calls to ban “no -knock” ceremonial commands. Taylor was killed between the police and Taylor's friend during a change of shooting.

“For a long time it is not to protect the protection of bad police work and to protect the people to whom they are paid to protect and serve,” said Young.

The police would also have to carry out the arrest warrants between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m., unless they can convince a judge to approve the arrest warrant for another time of day. The police should be uniformed or wear a badge and take up body cameras.

MP Dennis Tipsword, R-Metamora, who is also head of the Woodford County Sheriff Office, said that he feared that the 30-second rule and the limitation of arrest warrants were limited to certain hours of the day if more people could enter into the police and the public near security risks. He emphasized that the police give the police more secrecy and preserve the surprise element.

“I don't think we can put a time frame on the veranda and what could be a very dangerous situation on the veranda,” said Tipsword.

Other new requirements, including paramedics, who react shortly from medical problems, prevent the police from focusing on minors, and a ban on the parents or legal guardians with handcuffs, unless they are an “immediate threat”.

The invoice would also be restricted if the police can receive search commands after drug -related crimes. Residential commands could only be carried out for the production, sale or distribution of narcotics and not for drug possession.

Arrest warrants would also have to be carried out by a trained tactical team in counties with 90,000 or more people.

“This is not about binding your hands and I really believe that,” said Buckner.

Young was surprised on the body cameras of the Chicago police officers when the officials entered their house in early 2019 to carry out a search order to look for a man with a weapon.

Young was tied naked with handcuffs when she prepared for the bed, but the officials had entered the wrong house and she was finally released.

“None of us who bears the badge ever wants to hear such a story,” said Tipsword. “I think we are all interested in tightening this so that these situations do not happen.”

The Sergeant of the Chicago Police Department, which supervised the raid firedand Young achieved $ 2.9 million settlement With the city.

“Money cannot extinguish the case,” said Young. “A check cannot restore our dignity.

Young has pushed the CPD to carry out more reforms of its arrest warrant guidelines, but the City Council of Chicago has not taken up any regulation used by Young and ALD. Maria Hadden.

“It shouldn't take six years to get up and set up a real guideline that prevents the police from damaging black and brown communities,” said Young on a Capitol press conference on Tuesday.

The Illinois State Rifle Association, usually a conservative organization for advocacy, also supports the legislation. The association's lobbyist Ed Sullivan informed the committee that it would improve the security between armed residents and the police.

“What happens if you don't hear that this is law enforcement?” Said Sullivan.

Buckner said he expected further changes to the legislative template to present the police concerns before the house gives a vote on legislation.
