Sec. 5-8-5.
Commitment of the Offender.
Upon rendition of judgment after pronouncement of a sentence of periodic
imprisonment, imprisonment, or death, the court shall commit the offender
to the custody of the sheriff or to the Department of Corrections. A
sheriff in executing an order for commitment to the Department
of Corrections shall convey such offender to the nearest receiving station
designated by the Department of Corrections. The court may commit the
offender to the custody of the Attorney General of the United States under
Section 5-8-6 when a sentence for a State offense provides that such
sentence is to run concurrently with a previous and unexpired federal
sentence. The expense of conveying a person committed by the juvenile court
or an offender convicted of a felony shall be paid by the State. The expenses
in all other cases shall be paid by the county of the committing court.
