AI Summary
This bill amends the Criminal Code of 2012 and the Unified Code of Corrections to clarify when a 15-year penalty enhancement for committing certain offenses with a firearm applies. Specifically, the enhancement will only be applied if the person was personally armed with the firearm during the commission of the offense, rather than simply being armed with a firearm in general. This change aims to ensure that the additional penalty is reserved for situations where the individual was directly wielding the firearm during the crime.
