Provides that the third-time offender provisions resulting in a sentence of natural life imprisonment apply when the defendant has attained the age of 18 at the time of the third offense (rather than 21 years of age or older when the first offense was committed). In the provision that when a defendant, over the age of 21 years, is convicted of a Class 1 or Class 2 forcible felony after having twice been convicted in any state or federal court of an offense that contains the same elements as an offense now (the date the Class 1 or Class 2 forcible felony was committed) classified in Illinois as a Class 2 or greater Class forcible felony and those charges are separately brought and tried and arise out of different series of acts, that defendant shall be sentenced as a Class X offender, provides that the 3 offenses may be felonies rather than forcible felonies. Provides that the Class X sentencing provision does not apply to Class 1 or Class 2 felony convictions for theft.
