Amends the Criminal Code of 1961. Exempts from an eavesdropping violation with prior approval of the State's Attorney of the county in which it is to occur, recording or listening with the aid of an eavesdropping device to a conversation in which a law enforcement officer, or any person acting at the direction of a law enforcement officer, is a party to an undercover conversation and has consented to the conversation being intercepted or recorded in the course of an investigation of a felony violation of the Illinois Controlled Substances Act or a felony violation of the Methamphetamine Control and Community Protection Act. Provides that the use of an eavesdropping device under these provisions may be used in an emergency situation. Provides that an emergency situation occurs when, without previous notice to the law enforcement officer sufficient to obtain prior State's Attorney approval, the conversation to be overheard or recorded will occur within a short period of time and the use of the device is necessary for the protection of the law enforcement officer.
