““A reading of the statutory language in section 5 — 9—1(c) of the Unified Code of Corrections (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 38, par. 1005— 9 — 1(c)) in conjunction with section 9.1 of ‘An Act to establish the Illinois Local Government Law Enforcement Officers Training Board ***’ (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 85, par. 509.1), setting forth the means of distribution of the funds, reveals that the disputed amount is referred to as other than a fine. For example, every fine shall include an amount payable to the Fund (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 38, par. 1005 — 9—1(c)); such amounts payable shall be collected in addition to the fines and costs (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 38, par. 1005 — 9—1(c)); and, in addition to every fine imposed an additional assessment payable to the Fund shall be imposed. Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 85, par. 509.1. The above statutory language evinces the legislature’s intent to distinguish the amount payable to the Fund from any fines imposed. Furthermore, the purpose of providing financial assistance to the training of law enforcement personnel (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 85, par. 509) would be thwarted by subjecting the amounts payable to the Fund to the credit provisions of section 110 — 14 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963 (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 38, par. 110 — 14). We conclude that defendant is not entitled to credit against the amount payable to the Fund, imposed under section 5 — 9—1(c) of the Unified Code of Corrections (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 3”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority““As in Brewer, we believe that the extreme youth of Jeremy Jones presents an additional consideration not necessarily implicit in every offense of cruelty to a child. Interpreting the term ‘child’ in the cruelty to children statute as one who is under the age of 18 the legislature, in enacting section 5 — 5— 3.2(b)(3)(i), determined that cruelty to a child under the age of 12 deserves a greater penalty and that it should be left to the court’s discretion whether or not to consider this factor in imposing sentence.” (People v. Williams (1986), 142 Ill. App. 3d 266, 270 .)”
