Aftercare specialists and supervisors shall have the full power of peace officers in the retaking of any releasee who has allegedly violated his or her aftercare release conditions. The aftercare specialist may request the Department of Juvenile Justice to issue a warrant for the arrest of any releasee who has allegedly violated his or her aftercare release conditions. (c) The aftercare supervisor shall request the Department of Juvenile Justice to issue an aftercare release violation warrant, and the Department of Juvenile Justice shall issue an aftercare release violation warrant, under the following circumstances: (1) if the releasee has a subsequent delinquency petition filed against him or her alleging commission of an act that constitutes a felony using a firearm or knife; (2) if the releasee is required to and fails to comply with the requirements of the Sex Offender Registration Act; (3) (blank); or (4) if the releasee is on aftercare release for a murder, a Class X felony or a Class 1 felony violation of the Criminal Code of 2012, or any felony that requires registration as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act and a subsequent delinquency petition is filed against him or her alleging commission of an act that constitutes first degree murder, a Class X felony, a Class 1 felony, a Class 2 felony, or a Class 3 felony. Personnel designated by the Department of Juvenile Justice or another peace officer may detain an alleged aftercare release violator until a warrant for his or her return to the Department of Juvenile Justice can be issued. The releasee may be delivered to any secure place until he or she can be transported to the Department of Juvenile Justice. The aftercare specialist or the Department of Juvenile Justice shall file a violation report with notice of charges with the Department.
