Even though Children's Advocacy Center fine is mandatory, clerk of court lacks authority to impose it. Juvenile expungement fine and court system finance fee are fines, as they are added to "every penalty", and is thus subject to $5 per day credit. As court imposed many fines in addition to Violent Crime Victims Assistance Fund fine, it was improper for court to charge that fine under Section 10(c) of Crime Victims Compensation Act. (HUTCHINSON and JORGENSEN, concurring.)
