A law enforcement agency shall, within 15 days of receipt of a written request for a police report made to verify that the requirements of a crime victims compensation application under Section 6.1 of this Act have been met, provide the Attorney General's office with the law enforcement agency's full written report of the investigation of the crime for which an application for compensation has been filed. The law enforcement agency may redact the following from the report: names of confidential sources and informants; locations from which law enforcement conduct surveillance; and information related to issues of national security the law enforcement agency provided to or received from the United States Department of Homeland Security or another federal law enforcement agency. The Attorney General's office and a law enforcement agency may agree to the redaction of other information in the report or to the provision of necessary information in another format. Within 15 days of receipt of the request, a law enforcement agency shall respond to a written request from the Attorney General's office for additional information necessary to assist the Attorney General's office in making a recommendation for compensation. An applicant may obtain and provide a law enforcement report to the Attorney General and the Attorney General may proceed with the review of the application. If the copy of the law enforcement report provided by the applicant does not contain all the information the Attorney General needs to move forward with the review of the application, the Attorney General may proceed with requesting from the law enforcement agency the full written report of the investigation. Records that are obtained by the Attorney General's office from a law enforcement agency under this Section for purposes of investigating an application for crime victim compensation shall not be disclosed to the public, including the applicant, by the Attorney General's office. Law enforcement reports or other documentation obtained by the Attorney General's office from an applicant, victim, or third party under this Act for the purposes of investigating an application for crime victim compensation shall not be disclosed to the public or any individual or entity, not including the individual who supplied the report or documentation, by the Attorney General's office. Any records obtained by the Attorney General's office to process the application, including but not limited to applications, documents, and photographs, shall be exempt from disclosure by the Attorney General's office under the Freedom of Information Act.
